ET wanted 2 years and it looks like the Browns are ready to give 3.
It sounds like Lawrence is looking for $20.5 million a year and we're not even close.
Dee ford just got traded for a 2nd round pick and is doing a 5 year contract at 27 yrs old at $17.5 million per. He's an outside LB.
At this point Lawrence is surely worth more than a 2nd round pick and his position warrants being paid higher than LB.
We have the room for ET and we should be paying Lawrence by now seeing what everyone else is getting paid.
This coppy cat front office is always behind the good FO's and just tries to mirror their decisions.
We got Stephen bs'ing that we won't be conservative and Jerry sitting back on a video for 1 1/2 hours talking about how our late 2nd rounder could look like a 1st round talent.
$5 billion organization that doesn't pay for elite talent, hire and pay elite coaching and pays themselves the top paychecks in the front office without hiring anyone in there but Will McClay who can't even get a fair title.
Ma and Pa shop picking the talent and coaching for the World's most profitable organization in the world and giving us 3 playoff years in 2 and a half decades to emotionally jerk their fans around.
I have been supportive and calm, but what I'm seeing in 1 of the 5 worst franchises annually do with a real GM (John Dorsey), in comparison to the world's most expensive sports team? Is outright ugly reality and I'm about to bust when I see this team not produce some talent to put this team forward into championships.
We do not have enough as it stands to go after championships and I just keep hearing Jerry talking about how he's running out of time. Stephen bs'ing that we're not going to be conservative.
How? By constantly telling the fans how there's no money to sign anyone but their own? QB has been on a 4th round tender for 3+ years. The LT who has been all world since his 2nd year in the league probably signed and played on the fairest contract in the league next to Brady's. Other than paying the rest of your o-line and franchising your DE where have you had to pay anyone?
Witten isn't making his old wage, Amari is here but $14 million at WR right now is nothing. "But we're going to have to pay players". No kidding, that's the product you're selling you bunch of cons.
We bash Garrett and deservedly call him a con man but hell, these Jones guys take the cake.
If they think I'm going to just watch them generate 1 playoff win and jerk my emotions for another 3 season's off of that where I can be doing better things with my time and money, they got another thing coming. They've been conning me too long and I'm about to finally accept I've been fooled and quit taking this thing too seriously.
These guys pay no one from top to bottom and have the world's most expensive sports franchise. I rather lose trying than bs'ing. Than I can say "it is what it is, we tried lets keep going". But like this? Nah!
