I can't think of an active qb that fits the browns more than Brock. E: how much do 2nd rounders typically get in their first year bonuses included?

This is an awesome move by both teams. I'm very excited to watch Houston this season. Also seeing Brock on the Browns hydra.

Silly Burrito posted:Eh, he got paid. He's going to lose all his roster and workout bonuses and such that he would've earned from being on the team over the next couple years since he was ~uncuttable~. But beyond that, if the man had any sort of ambition about being an NFL qb, this has got to be a level of devastating that hasn't been seen in the NFL since LeCharles Bentley got a career ending injury on the first snap of mini-camp after signing with his favorite team.

They could go Cutler and a 1st or 2nd on a QB in the draft if they didn't want to trade for Romo. Romo would probably give them the best chance in the short term though.

It's going to own if the Browns officially say they don't even want Brock for literally zero (marginal) cost.

I'm trying to think up one and coming up empty. there's always been rumors of them, but they never seem to actually happen. teams always just end up eating the money until they can cut the player, and bad teams with a ton of cap space just end up carrying a bunch of cap space into the season. i can't recall a single blatant salary dump like this.

SKULL.GIF posted:He's losing roster/workout bonuses, right? According to Spotrac he's not due a roster Bonus until 2019 (which he'll never see), and has no workout bonuses in his contract. I could maybe see the NFLPA disliking the Browns artificially raising their cap for a player they have no intention of using, but as long as the actual money to be paid out is still paid I can't see them getting too up in arms about things. e: Also his 2017 salary is fully guaranteed. As far as I can tell if Brock is cut today he makes just as much money as he would if he played football this year. Grittybeard fucked around with this message at 23:07 on Mar 9, 2017 |
