It seems almost impossible that the browns could draft this bad when factoring in that they were doing the "right thing" in accumulating more picks as well.

What happened with the Browns?  

1st day of practice where Biscuit wasn't picked.  Definitely sounds like they've had a good camp...sure would be nice to get Roquan signed.  Unrelated but I still expect plenty of growing pains with the offense (so many new faces plus new system and a young QB to execute it).

Traded Corey Coleman (15th pick in 2016) to Bills for 7th rounder pick in 2020.

Gotcha; I can't blame them for moving Coleman. If they didn't like him, might as well move him (it isn't like he set the world on fire his first two years..although he was impacted by injuries). Certainly see why the Bills made the trade though (why not see if a change of scenery helps).

After reading this WCG article, it wouldn't surprise me if Smith told the Bears to budge or shove it.

Just pay the fucking guy, Jesus. Who cares how much he wants it's not like it's guaranteed.

So much truth here:

Good stuff. As much as I enjoy the writing from Magary, the letters from the fans are the funniest.

The one about Urlacher's hair graft was hilarious. I get that this is supposed to be satire, but I can't disagree with anything that was said here.

It seems pretty likely this holdout is going the whole off-season and will probably end right before the regular season (when guys start actually losing money).

I would agree. It's curious that the agency would make their stand with Smith. Maybe they feel this client has the best chance of sitting out the entire preseason and still be ready for the season.

If he holds the entire preseason, there is no way he is active for at least the first 2-3 weeks.

I think he will be. He might not play the majority of the snaps but he'll be playing.

Here comes Roquan, says Schefter

Nice. He just didn't want to go to bourbannais, can't blame him.

The report says they are still finalizing the language, so I don't think anyone knows yet.
