BurpleBull Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I don't think Coleman was brought in with the hopes of him materializing into a WR1 or WR2; I think he was brought in to keep defenses honest, but more importantly to help Kelvin Benjamin and the offense out on the outside with his speed, when Benjamin's working from the slot. I see Coleman as having the most value as a slot guy. He also has value as a KR and you know how McDermott feels about having guys that can contribute on special teams.

MAJBobby Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) Perspective also from @Pat_Thurman off that twitter thing Corey Coleman QBs: Kizer: 8.5 games RGIII: 5 games McCown: 2 games Kessler: 1 game McCown/Kessler: 2 games (2 full games w/ McCown: 13 tgt, 8 rec, 142 yds, 3 TD) A couple fluke injuries and a QB clowncar in a 1-31 circus.

cle23 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 A Browns writer is saying this is more about moving on than the compensation. Basically said that issues extend back to last year and that isn't wasn't entirely performance based. I've heard a lot that Coleman is lazy and didn't know the playbook. The ability is there but not always the mental part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some or all of this has got to be true, but if a first round pick can't be motivated by being traded for basically a bag of footballs then I don't know what will. And if he doesn't it's gonna cost the Bills about 4 million dollars over 2 years which is pennys in the big picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I'm more meh on the trade than others are but I can't complain for a 7th in 2020. Browns fans on Twitter mostly hate the trade and think he was putting together a good training camp this year. The big question with Coleman is can he stay healthy?

But the Browns don't need a lot of salary cap for 2 or 3 years so I think they're just trying to let their other receivers have a shot. Their 4th round pick Antonio Calloway has looked good.

Royale, consider yourself lucky, my friend. I have silver on my temples, chest, arms and back...maybe on my butt, too, however it is difficult for me to tell. Fortunately, the top of my head appears to be a basic olive skin toned color, so that's staying young.

Whether Coleman does or doesn't put it all together , for a 7th , I take that all day with the Bills WR. If him and/or Zay can reach their potential , this wr corps is suddenly good-looking very good, assuming KB stays healthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 WR seems to be the position that takes a moment to "get it" at the NFL level, especially a guy like Coleman who ran a very limited route tree at Baylor. We are "building the basketball team" we did not have someone with Coleman's upside/skill set. I think it's a great gamble at the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
