NateDawg Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 He's a phenomenal talent, but I'm not selling the farm for a ball-dominant WR. I'm just not. Super Bowl teams typically prove that it's just not a recipe for sustained success. We also have a QB that spreads the ball around. I'm not giving up a bunch of assets and money on Beckham when those resources can go elsewhere, where they better fit our needs. Don't @ me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AB, now he is a cancer and a me, me, me guy. OBJ is a diva but has never put himself ahead of the team. Baker can handle him. The trio will be legendary.

Thomas5737 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) I think I would give up our first this year.I'm not giving up multiple firsts. His cap hit would be 16.75 this year and average around 15 after that (never reaches $16 million again). After 2019 we could cut him and it would only cost $7 million. We wouldn't. .If he wants to restructure then N/M not interested. OBJ is a poor loser. He gets mad at losing. He isn't a give me the ball guy if his team is winning. I'm okay with a poor loser if we aren't losing We don't have to build a defense. Besides turnovers in the first half of the year, we got about as little from our defense as possible. Garrett, Ogunjobi, Ogbah are good pieces on the line. Schobert, Kirksey, Avery and Collins certainly aren't towards the bottom of LBer groups in the league. We have a lot of talent in the secondary. We just need a better scheme and to put players in a position to succeed and learn how to tackle. I'm not confident in our DC but I'll give him a chance to get more out of the group than the last regime did. We're in win now mode folks. I don't want to sell the farm for a #1 WR that we don't really need but I didn't really want to sign a really good RB that we didn't need who had issues but we did that for a specific reason. Deep playoff run. OBJ isn't going to add a lot of wins in the regular season. It's a win in the playoffs that we would be trading for.

It’s not just the draft picks, there’s the salary too. So the question you should be asking is which of those pairs of players and a free agent making 10ish a year would I want. 6 hours ago, Horseunit said: Draftwire has us with Byron Murphy and Dre'Mont Jones Alpha Football has Christian Wilkins and Yondey Cajuste Since you asked, those would be my choices. Now which free agents do I get to pick from as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope someday my wife shows me the love and commitment you’ve shown to Emmanuel Ogbah. 😂 He’s got 12 sacks in 3 seasons and was rated as the 84th best edge player by PFF. In all seriousness, I too think a good DC should be able to get more out of him, but thus far he’s been pretty underwhelming. Most of us feel adding at least two contributors to the DL is a must. 4 hours ago, Thomas5737 said: Schobert, Kirksey, Avery and Collins certainly aren't towards the bottom of LBer groups in the league. Agreed. I’d be surprised to see Collins back though, but it’s possible. 4 hours ago, Thomas5737 said: We have a lot of talent in the secondary. Eh, we have 3 talented starters and some question marks tbh. The depth is no bueno imo. 4 hours ago, Thomas5737 said: We just need a better scheme and to put players in a position to succeed and learn how to tackle. Not saying you’re wrong, but that’s likely something fans of all bad defenses could say. Those issues and a lack of talent aren’t mutually exclusive. 4 hours ago, Thomas5737 said: We're in win now mode folks. For sure. With Kitchens, was Baker looking like he needed a “superstar” WR to win? 4 hours ago, Thomas5737 said: I don't want to sell the farm for a #1 WR that we don't really need but I didn't really want to sign a really good RB that we didn't need who had issues but we did that for a specific reason. Deep playoff run. Nonsensical comparison. Both are superstars but one costs us next to nothing (in NFL context). No picks and non guaranteed contract. 4 hours ago, Thomas5737 said: OBJ isn't going to add a lot of wins in the regular season. It's a win in the playoffs that we would be trading for.

Ain’t no way I. Hell he is worth that kind of money. Kelce made $10m for one season and has been $8m. Zac Ertz had one season of $10m one at $9m But also had a season of $4m, $7m, and $8m twice on his contract. If Njoku is looking for a deal where he is making $11m a year. These next 3 seasons he better be a damn near monster or you let his arse walk because right now he looks nothing like a $11mpy. At best he is a $9mpy type player. $10mpy for Peppers is much. Unless he truly elevates his game over the next 3years. Tony Jefferson was a young and great safety who hit the FA mark and he only makes $8.5m Yeah over the next 3years the market can change but I truly can’t see those two make that kind of money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his point still stands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is get a franchise QB. Whatever you do outside of that is what you want to do. There is no formula or blueprint to winnIng a Super Bowl. It differs from year to year. The only constant variable is to have a QB playing at a top tier/elite level. You want to get Baker to play at that top tier elite level at a young age. Surround him with offensive weapons. He looked good last year with avg and good WRs. Let’s see what he can do with an elite level WR. OBJ makes everyone better on that offense. Dude has been a stud with the giants and he has been with a broken Eli. He might not put up a Stat like for a season like he did previous years because he might not get the number of targets but he might make more splash and critical plays for the browns than in years past. Just saying you have a chance to add a young elite player, you can’t pass it up. Also ppl say Baker is so good at distributing the ball. Well if a team really wants to game plan to take away OBJ,l and want to double him. they really will just make the game easier for Baker because it means every other receiving option is going to be seeing a simplier coverage and baker can exploit that. Means the browns with Freddie and Monken can exploit the chances of more man to man coverage and less safety help cause of the double team bracketing on OBJ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
