Golden Goat Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 If it's true that he signed for less than $1 million -- Even with the suspension, that's a helluva bargain for Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Cleveland is the worst place for him to be.

Mopreme Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Bills blew it by not signing him. Who cares about the PR? He made a mistake. This country is built on second chances. Hunt could have been the perfect transition from McCoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Just doesn’t make sense to me. I feel Chubb is a better Rb and this is a distraction the team doesn’t need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Forgive the diversion, but let the Hunt signing serve as a final notice to any of you who think the reason Kaep is unemployed is because of skin color. Black guy hangs dogs from trees and drowns them in a bucket of water. Gets a job. Black guy kicks a woman. Gets a job. Black guy sucks at QB. Has no job. Just that simple. Sidenote: I hate that Hunt got picked up. His actions should have career-ending implications. The NFL now says it's okay if you treat a woman badly so long as you apologize and wait a while until the incident passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Gordon's probably done and Hunt can still carve out a great career if he steers clean going forward. Strange it's the Browns given their RB situation but I see the asset flip idea, as some are suggesting, they could potentially have at the position seeing how it pans out over Hunt's and Chubb's rookie contracts the next few years.

Coach Tuesday Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Whatever. The Browns are actually trying to WIN GAMES. Beane should focus on adding football players who can help the team win games. I stand by my view that Beane will be out of a job come January 2020.

Bing Bong Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 1 hour ago, mannc said: That is an understatement. IMO he was the best back in the league last year before he was released. KC definitely missed him, even though they continued to score points. him and Kamara are the strongest RB assets you can have right now IMO.. Saquon probably in those ranks. The top 5 RBs between those 3, Zeke and Gurley (Bell a dark horse) is pretty interchangeable to me, so I'm going off contract status. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have no idea if Cleveland got better today because you have no idea how this is going to play out. All Hunt has to do is kick another woman, and he's gone. What I do know is there was never a time when anyone who follows the Bills would seriously think they would bring a guy like Hunt onto the team.

Also means no one wanted him No. Kareem has done a lot of good around here. I've shaken his hand and can promise you he's not an ahole like Chad Kelly. He needs to grow up and choose his friends better. I would guess he came here to CLE to be close to his mom and the things he cares about while he gets back on track. He's early 20's, had a rough childhood before moving across town to Willoughby, and has made some poor decisions. He's not unforgivable. Dorsey is the man. Considering many RB's burn out after a few years he's really hedged his bets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
