Browner is rated the #75 best CB out of 75.... plus he is suspended

convert him to safety ? minimum contract ?

Yeah, I'd have given a 5th for Sproles, too. We must not have offered since our pick that round is higher than the Eagles.

That might work....
After the first four games anyways.
If this guy can stay off the bong then its a damn good pick up.

Sproles and McCoy in that backfield? Ouch.

That really hurts thinking about him on Philly. A little scary, actually.

I am no fan of Browner or his habit of getting suspended, but if he actually stays on the field, he'll be a great player for us. Still, I'd rather get someone without the baggage like Munnerlyn.

Seems like we are winning. No big contracts. Isn't that the goal of football on the warpath. Don't pay anyone too much and you win. Right?

Interest in Jason Hatcher too.

I'm all for poaching players from division rivals as long as it works out more like Cofield and less like Bowen, Rocca and McNabb.

Browner is one big, tough SOB. I like that. Let's sign him and beat up the other teams' WR's for a change. We can get by for four games without him.

Maybe he can coach up Tanard Jackson on how to beat an indefinite suspension.

I think the goal is no dumb contracts, I think many of the contracts handed out the past few days may turn out to be dumb, but it takes a full off season to find out who the "winners" are.

You shouldn't put stock in the very fallible rating systems on the net. Browner can play a little. You could be on to something with him as a safety. He would knock the snot out of people at SS. He's listed at 6-4, 221.

Monkeydad · 03-13-2014, 10:32 AM

Good thinking. He's built for SS.

That rating system can't be accurate, he's better than dead last.

Whatever he's injecting makes him hunt heads on the field...him and Niles Paul as gunners on special teams would be fun to watch.

He can run too.

Just stay clean and we'll love having you and your trashy game here. He'll make D-Hall look like the Pope.

Free agent CB Walter Thurmond III has visits scheduled with the Bucs and Redskins.

Thurmond is also getting interest from old coach Gus Bradley, and the Seahawks want him back as well. He's likely looking for a starting job after serving as Seattle's nickel back.

per JLC

Monkeydad · 03-13-2014, 10:40 AM

Thurmond also has had a 4-game suspension for pot.

We want Seattle's level of play but don't really need their drug-addicted players and suspensions.

However, he's a solid player who is starter-quality. He stepped in and played very well when Browner was suspended himself.

I'd take him over Browner I think, he has less baggage and we won't have to wait a month to see him suit up.
