    Browns spent $24 million on 3 free agents on the offensive line last summer

    2017/18
    Zeiter (Guard): $8.4 million
    J.C.Tretter (Center): $3.6 mil
    Bitonio (Guard) re-signed: $12.2 million

    Free Agents are not always cheap

    Never said they were. That's why Davenport stepping up at RT would be huge. That would really leave LT and LG as our biggest holes with now possibly three 3rd round picks in 2018 and an extra 2nd in 2019.

    Not really. If you think of it like a completely separate and isolated transaction, it's kind of like we traded them Lane and two 5th round picks (ours and the one they had previously sent to us) for their 3rd rounder.

    Hmmm... so 3 players for 1?

    That doesn't sound as pretty.

    He was speculating on the value of Lane.

    Yeah. Didn’t say you said that. Just saying free agents are expensive. Tackles are more expensive than
    guards which is what the Browns mostly spent. Anyway I’m bummed. I didn’t want Watson because I said
    he would be injured a lot like Mariota. Not having an O-line can work for a running QB; but a non mobile QB might get killed. News today is sad. Didn’t want to see it. Sucks. He was surpassing all my expectations
    quit easily.
