I doubt it happens, but if KS does go to the browns, you could expect he would like to bring in someone he has worked with...

I fear that Wrecks is done since his patrons have been dethroned. Maybe he can follow Kyle to Cleveland as a free agent. But it is likely that the dragon will never again be unleashed.

Dream job! No QB. No RBs. Losing their best offensive lineman to FA.

Josh Gordon is the only positive with that gig.


Good luck, Kyle, you earned it.

I disagree. The Browns are not in bad shape. They can get a QB in the draft. Also Hoyer played pretty well while he was on the field.

So you want to trade away quality depth for a unproven college player? I'd make that deal if it was Joe Hayden for those two. Or Josh Gordon. Then we have a deal.

It would be foolish to not trade Cousins/Helu for a first round pick. That deal won't happen because other teams aren't that dumb.

We need to hold onto Helu, he was very effective for us last season and we've been very fortunate with Morris' health in these two years with as hard as we've worked him.

This times 100. A second rounder, maybe (I wouldn't this offseason). But a first rounder you roll the dice at least 50/50 odds on getting a good starter, instead of a backup.

I agree with this. Morris came to the pros with lots of carries in college, and with his hard-nose playing style, there's no telling how long he'll run at an elite level. And I think Gruden will use Helu more than Shanahan did, making him more valuable.

I've liked Helu since we drafted him. But his production is not difficult to replace. In the bigger scheme of things he's just-a-guy. If the Browns or another team will offer a sweet deal, we should be willing to swap.

The idea of Josh Gordon lining up on the opposite side of Pierre Garçon makes me drool. Those two together would make for a top 5 WR duo in the league. I can't see the browns getting rid of one of the few bright spots on their offense though. One can dream though, right?

[JoeRedskin]

So, Cousins and our 2nd for Gordon? Do you pull the trigger? For Hayden?

[donofriose]

I do not think the Browns are going to be trading some of their best players anytime soon.

I would trade nearly any player(s) but not any of our picks.

[Alvin Walton]

No way do we trade Helu.
Depth has been a big issue for this team and RB is one of the only solid spots.

[donofriose]

You can find a Running Back in the later rounds or even an undrafted free agent and still get the same production Helu has given Washington the past three seasons.
