cattleman78 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Isn't this the year we can offer him a fifth year? I don't know how I feel about that. Guess I'll wait until I see the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I'll wait until I see the price. He's a solid 1 Tech and good against the run. I'd extend him a year. If not, we'd better address this via the draft/free agency.

We have money and he’s a decent starter who anchors the run D. Why let him walk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBrownsman Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I see Danny Shelton in the backfield all the time disrupting mostly the running game. He has a relentless motor as hes making plays down the field chasing guys down as well. Hes one of the better players on out defense as it stands. I would want to extend him, not just take the 5th year option, I don't see why we wouldn't at least get the 5th year of his rookie deal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETSGOBROWNIES Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 FWIW, the price for a DT last year for a 5th option, which is an average of the top 10 salaries at the position, was a shade under 7 million. That would effectively tack on 3.5 million to his current cap number. No reason at all not to pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buno67 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Shelton has been a damn good player. It just isn’t pretty or sexy looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedTheClock Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Danny Shelton was shockingly great for us last season. Arguably our best defensive player. I'd be furious if we let him walk, even with the depth we have across our DL. I was not a fan of the Shelton pick when we made it. It was probably my least favorite pick we made (and Justin Gilbert) since the Browns have been back. ....oh nevermind, I forgot about Brandon Weeden. But I was still pretty salt about Shelton. Turns out I was way off on that, as he has helped our run defense tremendously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgpoun8017 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 There’s literally zero logical reasoning for him not too be on this team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSURacerDT55 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I like Shelton a lot, but I fully expect another progression year and the option will be well deserved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawgX Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 We'd be foolish to let go of Shelton. He doesn't put up amazing stats or anything, but he's a big reason why our run defense improved as much as it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He truly ate up those doubly teams from the guard centers to make sure the 3T got one on one looks. I think it’s smart that Greg made him a space eater instead of a penetrator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
