    According to Schefter the Browns are trading two draft picks to the Dolphins for Landry. Haven't heard what they are. They're also going to negotiate a new contract.

    good news for us. landry is out of the division and cleveland won't go after robinson or another big FA WR. also good for cleveland and their rookie QB they get. landry and gordon is a hell of a 1-2 duo.

    Ticker said it was for 4th and 6th rounders. Dirt cheap for Landry. Dolphins are dumb. Can't sign your best playmaker to a contract so you trade him to a winless team for a bag of chips.

    It's better than nothing but Tanny sucks and will waste the picks anyway. I'm no cap guru, but it is mind boggling how you can be in such a position where you have to give away your best playmakers for peanuts and still be over.

    the Suh contract was killer to them. they also drafted well enough to have a lot of players due for a contract and didn't plan ahead well

    wow that was dumb for the Dolphins. What a steal for Cleveland. Tyrod Taylor throwing to Josh Gordon deep and Jarvis Landry underneath. The Browns are gonna start winning games
