Off season news... The Browns are the leading story today!!

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18865828/making-sense-unprecedented-brock-osweiler-trade-nfl

Essentially they bought a 2nd round pick next year for $16mil. At first I really thought they traded for Brock Lobster, but looking at it now... they basically gamed the system to actually buy a draft pick and use some of that cap room that they have to spend and no one really to spend it on.

I am ok with this... if nothing else than the idea the Browns are making headlines.  Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?

They are trying different things and it's a new wrinkle in the NFL: the cap space for draft picks trade.

Also the Redskins have taken over as the dumpster fire of the NFL. Wtf is going on down there?!

The Redskins are just suffering from Dan Snyder having recently read "The Art of the Deal." In Cliff Notes form.

Meanwhile, the Browns get Brock Lobster? And Houston has no one if they don't get Romo?

THE FUCK?

And now apparently Dallas didn't release Romo like everyone thought they would, mainly because Houston just shot themselves in the face by trading away Osweiller. I realize they didn't lose much by trading him, but by doing it before Romo was a free agent, it gave the Cowboys trade leverage they wouldn't have had before. It's not even clear Romo would go there as opposed to Denver anyway, since Denver is, IMO, a better destination. Sure, Romo would get to play in the shittiest division in football but there's still no guarantee Houston is just a QB away from actually being considered a contender.

Also, the Eagles get both Torrey Smith and Alshon Jeffrey, which immediately makes the NFC East more competitive. Wentz really struggled in the second half when the Eagles basically had cardboard cutouts at wide receiver. Either of those guys are an upgrade, both is a good tandem.

The Redskins fired their GM who they basically sidelined before the combine anyway. And now Kirk Cousins has told them he wants a trade. The Racial Slurs are really trying to outBrowns the Browns.

It's been an interesting few days here in DC.  Jordan Reed is going to lead the NFL in receiving yards next year if he doesn't break in half.

We are fine with vacating the title of shittiest NFL entity.

In other news of the Browns kind, we just secured Zeitler from Cincinnati and Tretter from GB. Given our previous OL, this is miles above where we were.

Tretter has yet to play a full season for the Packers and still got 3 years and almost $17 million. He's decent when healthy and I'm sure he's better than the turnstiles they had last year but damn. Guards are the new corners.

No one should have to suffer through another year of Erving at center...or anywhere else on the line.

Shouldn't all of that already be in a new thread as the new NFL season technically started yesterday?
