Phil Taylor good sirs?

[nctarheel0619]

Browns just released him.  With the possibility of Cole or Dwan starting.  He would be a massive upgrade over both.  Good luck running on him and KK.  

[jumpman910]

Absolutely, especially with the injuries we could be looking at. 

[electro's horse]

yes that idea is cool and good

[nctarheel0619]

I know Gettlemen has to make a call or something.  

[nctarheel0619]

Actually, he has to wait for him to go through waivers and hope that one of these many teams already showing interest doesn't make a deal. 

yeah, sucks. 

[Proudiddy]

Can he play WR? 

*first*

[Peppers90 NC]

DT is literally the last thing on my mind right now

I would've been happy trading a late rounder for him. Not conditional.

With two injured starters and two older backups it's likely on Gentleman's mind.

Consider...

In return for the #6 overall pick that the Falcons used to draft Julio Jones, the Browns received First Round Pick #27, Second Round Pick #59 and Fourth Round Pick #124 in 2011 plus First Round Pick #22 and Fourth Round Pick #120 in 2012.  Cleveland later traded up from #27 to #21 via the Chiefs (who actually wound up picking 26th because the Ravens let their time expire).

With those picks, the Browns got...

- DT Phil Taylor (2011, #21)
- WR Greg Little (2011, #59)
- FB Owen Marecic (2011, #124)
- QB Brandon Weeden (2012, #22)
- LB James-Michael Johnson (2012, #120)

What happened to those picks?

Johnson was waived by the Browns prior to the 2013 season and picked up by Kansas City, where he still plays.

Weeden wound up benched in 2013 and released in 2014.  He's currently backing up Tony Romo in Dallas.

Marecic was also cut prior to the 2013 season.  The 49ers picked him up but he never played for them and was released again just a few months later.  He decided to retire from football and go to med school.

Little started out decent but declined and wound up released in 2014.  He spent time with the Raiders and Bengals, where he still is at the moment despite having previously been released.

And Taylor was dropped today.

 

The life of a Browns fan must be really tough.

[Mr. Scot]

As to the topic, yeah I'd be cool with us taking a look at Taylor.
