Had a bad feeling Zeitler would end up in Cleveland. Between their enormous cap space and his familiarity with Hue Jackson. Hope all that cash is enough to ease the misery of one abysmal season after another after another. Good luck with that Kev.

Y'all been talkin' up Johnson. If Ginn still has the legs, he'll be some good raw material for Johnson to show his stuff...

Hey Warford isn't bad. I'll take him over having Lelito at guard.

Mostly through the left side though


PFF Grade

19. Detroit Lions (22)
Top overall grade: LT Taylor Decker, 82.8 (No. 23)

Top pass-blocking grade: RG Larry Warford, 82.6 (No. 33)

Top run-blocking grade: RG Larry Warford, 81.8 (No. 16)

The play of rookie LT Taylor Decker was a pleasant surprise for this team. Decker was a player that didn’t overly impress PFF as a draft prospect out of Ohio State, but he was consistently solid all season, performing above-average as both a run blocker and pass protector in his first pro season. Larry Warford was markedly better than a year ago at RG, at least when it comes to run blocking, and Travis Swanson was solid at center. The biggest issue this team had was at LG, where the combination of Graham Glasgow and Laken Tomlinson simply took turns getting abused. As a pair, they surrendered six sacks, 10 penalties, and 49 total pressures, with neither countering that form with dominant run-blocking displays.

A lot of that came from Highland Park (Stafford) improvising after plays had broken down. Warford is a natural RG. Young, big and came cheaper than Zeitler. You never can tell but he might end up better. Don't forget what Coach Rousar did with our O line last year ;).

IMO this is a nice signing that we needed at the position.

I'm happy with Warford. We should add Fluker as well.

Texans send Osweiller and a 2nd rounder to Cleveland for exactly nothing


The Browns already said he isnt their new QB

Curious as to why all threads were combined when we will be discussing 7-8 different players?

wow! A nba kinda trade.....Texans paid a draft pick to relieve their cap.... Never seen nothing like that...Browns don't know how to develop their players so I'll be looking for that pick on the waiver wire in 3yrs

My sentiments exactly.

With all these picks they have and no WR we should be talking to the Browns about Cooks

See how a open mouth gets fed in Cleveland

Shouldn't we have a thread for each player signed to discuss?

Btw, I'm very happy with the moves so far today.

Rotoworld...
Warford's biggest asset is his youth. He doesn't turn 26 until this summer. Warford and Kevin Zeitler are the top two free agent guards, with T.J. Lang also in the mix, though Lang is going on 30. Warford was Pro Football Focus' No. 19 guard last season, receiving plus marks for his run blocking. At $9 million annually, he'd be one of the NFL's highest-paid guards

Agreed, this thread is way too confusing.

I wonder if Deandre Levy is healthy.

Probably not

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?
 
Larry Warford 28 bench press


STRENGTHS Big-bodied guard prospect with lower-body girth. Quick feet for his size, keeps them moving in pass protection to mirror his man and can adjust quickly to ride defenders penetrating gaps out of the play. Also plays with knee bend and has arm length to maintain distance from his man, will reset and punch with one or two hands throughout the play. Capable of getting off tackle block to pick up delayed blitzer. Flashes quickness to trap and get around the tackle to lead run plays. Gets down quickly to cut block and take out linebackers in the hole on traps. Hustles downfield to help out ballcarriers when needed. Plays with some attitude, brings some pop to his punch when helping his tackle against a pass rusher.

How many more threads do we need? Free Agency is Free Agency...

Read the threads and quote, discuss...If you can't keep up, seek treatment for ADD...

For me Sister Mary Margaret and her ruler helped me focus and pay attention...

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?
 
Warford worries me in pass protection and opening running lanes against better defensive linemen...

But, the guy does get out on screens and creams linebackers and defensive backs...

I really like the fact that Warford works with LeCharles Bentley in the offseason. He is the absolute cutting edge in O-line development right now.
I think this will be a very solid move for us.

Thought Klein might see more money than that, oh well...

Life has been good so far .
Fairley looks like he is going to resign
Warford top tier FA Guard
AJ Klein Upgrade at LB
Ted Ginn deep threat to replace Cooks weakens Panthers

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?
 
When Butler has been turning down the same or more money with the Pats why wouldnt you pay Gillmore or Bouye that money and trade Cooks for picks
