News: PFT: Browns sign Miles Austin

[Blast From The Past]

Browns fans around me are extremely excited about this pick up and are calling me a hater for pointing out the hammy problems Miles has had. They even told me to not try to jump on their "bandwagon" because my team blows. They are VERY confident fans already and training camp hasn't even started yet. I wish Miles the best but I'm glad he won't be a cowboy.

Good signing for the Browns. Happy for Miles and geez the fans in Cleveland at least showing signs of life unrealistic or not, I say good for them too.

Wouldn't have minded having him back in camp competing for a spot. Having to count on him as a possible No. 1 receiver is a different story. I wouldn't even count on him in the top three unless I felt I had a fourth guy capable of at least stepping into that role if he's injured.

Now, he can be a valuable No. 2 at the very least if healthy, but that's a big if at this point.

He better accumulated most of those yards during the warm games because those hammies of his aren't going to stretch as well after it gets cold.

I was just going to say the same thing...

 

[The Natural]

another guy gone that I will not miss

After a few months with the team, I'd love to pick Austin's brain about comparing and contrasting Gordon and Bryant.

Always gonna be biased toward current team - though the fact Gordon may be 86d might allow a more frank assessment

Hammies won't last till game 5 at max

Never fear, #Browns fans. I come bearing Icy Hot. Not gonna lie though, ours will be a love-hate relationship.

Somewhere there was a Cowboy fan dreaming of Johnny Manziel throwing touchdowns to Miles Austin next year. He's getting his wish, kind of.

Speaking of that, has Romo2Austin requested Manziel2Austin yet?

 

[Doc50]

May he rest in peace.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

To be honest, I hope it all works out for Austin, Johnny football, and the Cleveland Browns. That Fanbase has suffered long enough.

 

[Direwolf63]

I heard Austin's left hammy was quivering as he was signing his contract.

 

[viman96]

I like Miles but this comment gave me a laugh. "Good pickup. For 3 games." Sadly there is a fair amount of truth to it. Hope Austin has a good season.

I heard Austin's left hammy was quivering as he was signing his contract.

Matt Johnson just busted a blood vessel in his eye watching the announcement on ESPN.

 

[Carolina Cowboy]

Good luck MA. Loved you as a kick returner. Brought our return game up from the depths as a youngster. Wish your hands were better and your backside stronger.

 

[LOBO7]

This cant be there end plan.
They have to know he is fragile at best.
Maybe they think the suspension will only be for a few games
and Austin will last that long.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

I hope Austin goes there and tears it up (the stat sheet, not his hammies)!

 

[WV Cowboy]

To be honest, I hope it all works out for Austin, Johnny football, and the Cleveland Browns. That Fanbase has suffered long enough.

Agreed, .. but I want another Lombardi before they get one. LOL

 

[egn22]

So happy he's not using a roster spot here. Seriously happy

 

[noshame]

With Josh Gordon potentially facing a suspension, Cleveland needs help at wide receiver. Miles Austin will provide just that.

For about 10 minutes.

I like sMiles and wish him the best. I just wish it had worked out here.
