The Cleveland Browns release Jamal Lewis

Blogged under Big Browns News,Bloglockers,Front Page by admin on Friday 19 February 2010 at 10:22 am

The Browns have released 30-year old RB Jamal Lewis.  He played in 9 games for the Browns last season and he carried the ball 143 times for 500 yards (3.5 ypc) without a TD run.  He also caught 8 passes for 88 yards (11.0 avg) last year.  In three years with the Browns, Lewis played in 40 games in which he carried the ball 720 times for 2,806 yards (4.0 ypc) with 13 TD runs.  Lewis also caught 61 passes for 514 yards (8.4 avg) with 2 TD grabs for the Browns.  Jerome Harrison’s emergence late in the season and Lewis’ concussion problems combined to end Lewis’ career in Cleveland.

The Cleveland Browns really need a true #1 WR for 2010

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page by admin on Saturday 13 February 2010 at 4:16 pm

The Cleveland Browns really need a quality go to WR in 2010.  After all the leading receiver for them last season was rookie Mohamed Massaquoi who caught 34 passes for 624 yards (18.4 avg) with 3 TD grabs.  Browns’ WRs accounted for only 5 TD grabs as a unit last season!  I think the Browns need to pick one up in the trade market and like both Brandon Marshall of the Broncos and Anquan Boldin of the Cardinals.  I probably would go with Boldin because a third round pick would probably be all it would require to get him.  Boldin played in 15 games for the Cardinals last season and he caught 84 passes for 1,024 yards (12.2 avg) with 4 TD grabs.  He also carried the ball 3 times for 12 yards (4.0 ypc) with a TD run last season.  Boldin has played 7 years in the NFL appearing in 95 games in which he has caught 586 passes for 7,520 yards (12.8 avg) with 44 TD grabs.  He has also carried the ball 36 times for 209 yards (5.8 ypc) with 1 TD run in his career.  Boldin has nice size at 6’1″, 217 pounds and he is not afraid to go over the middle which would be a huge plus for the Browns.  25-year old Brandon Marshall comes with some baggage but he also has a higher upside than Boldin but probably will cost the Browns more in a trade.  Marshall played in 15 games for the Broncos last season and he caught 101 passes for 1,120 yards (11.1 avg) with 10 TD grabs.  He also carried the ball 7 times for 39 yards (5.6 ypc) last season.  Marshall has now played in 61 games in his NFL career and he has caught 327 passes for 4,019 yards (12.3 avg) with 25 TD grabs.  Marshall has also carried the ball 16 times for 104 yards (6.5 ypc) in his career.  Either of these guys would be huge additions to the Browns as they need to give the QBs a chance to be successful.

The Cleveland Browns cut Donte’ Stallworth

The Browns have cut 29-year old WR Donte’ Stallworth less than 24 hours are he was reinstated to the NFL by the league commissioner.  He was suspended for the 2009 season due to his running over a pedestrian in Miami.  Stallworth played in 11 games in 2008 with the Browns and he caught 17 passes for 170 yards (10.0 avg) with 1 TD grab.  He has now played in 95 games in his NFL career and he has caught 296 passes for 4,383 yards (14.8 avg) with 32 TD grabs.  Some team will give him a chance to redeem himself but I’m glad that it’s not the Browns.
