Quote:Give up a pick for a center, as well as a BOAT load of guaranteed money?  I don't see why this would be prudent.

 

We're not talking about an early round pick.  The guaranteed money is the cost of doing business, and it will be worth the investment as long as he remains healthy.  The guy has been extremely reliable so far. 

 

Quote:I thought one of the Browns fans cited some CBA by law saying that was illegal?... I hope its not, and I'd dangle one of the 5th rounders as incentive. 

 

It's only a violation of the CBA if they just hand over the pick.  I'm sure there's a prospect on the Browns practice squad they could trade off a 5th or 6th for.

 

Quote:do i want a cookie? or does FBT want the cookie?

 

I guessed 75 pages, so i was wrong, but if a cookie is my consolation prize... i'll take an oreo

 

I figured we'd get close to 75 pages, and depending on when Mack actually signed the deal, it was possible the over would be hit.  Enjoy that cookie.
