**** you Dorsey!!

Well, that sucks. At least it wasn't the Patriots or someone else in the AFC West.

honestly, that's probably a really good fit for him.

He's just trying to win a championship.

Dammit!

Knew he'd play again.

Chiefs and browns will be the top 2 teams in the AFC for 15 plus years

Good landing spot for Kareem. Near his hometown and has a prior relationship with Dorsey.

Just wish we could have at least gotten a comp pick or something for him. Grinds at me that we let a player of his skill go for nothing.

Probably a good spot for him.

(And I still miss Dorsey.)

yup, being from Ohio, might just be what he needed.

Dorsey is going to turn that franchise around. I still cant believe we got rid of him. Such a horrible horrible decision. Chubb and Hunt is a hell of a RB duo.

But why?

Chubb was great as a rookie.

We got the Williams and Williams bros tho

Dorsey drafted Hunt. It’s near his hometown. Several factors

Good place for that idiot. Have fun in the factory of sadness.

Tbh they aren’t that anymore

Good for Kareem. Great for the Browns.

Any one who thought he wasn't going to play again in the NFL is stupid. .

Dorsey is the best talent evaluator in the league. Chris Ballard might be the second best. Veach has yet to prove he has remotely similar skills in that department. Yes he found Mahomes, but Dorsey was the one who orchestrated the trade up and ultimately made the pick so he gets credit for that imo.

Depends on who he surrounds himself with. Could be the best or worst.

I’m aware of all of this dumbass. Still doesn’t make sense.

You are half right.

to Keep it Real
or Not Keep it Real.

...that is the question.

Browns are gonna have the best run game in football. Glad to see him get a second chance. Wish it was with us.

Glad we get to watch him run over our defense now

Maybe they are the only team to give him a chance. Dorsey loves second chances. Hill, Peters now Hunt

Freaking 1 year deal worth around 1 mil. Thats a steal.

lol yeah, put his ass right back with his homeboys so he can cause even more trouble.

Browns are trying to win a Super Bowl. Clark is concerned about his image.

Nah, he's not going to blow this.

JMO.

I'd bet money it doesn't happen.

wanna bet?

Yep

What a ****ing idiot :facepalm:

Glad Clarks feelings were hurt and we released him for nothing.

That's why we drafted Hill, wasn't it?

Not true at all. Veach sounded like he'd consider it again last week and the bears definitely would have. If the skins hadn't just claimed Reuben Foster they probably would have claimed him off waivers.

I said the exact same thing a couple days ago but CP said Hunt wouldn’t sign for the minimum. I even said 2 year deal to prove it. Looks like I should be the GM

They have video of the signing, but Cleveland PD won't release it.

Guess who drafted Hill. Oh yea Dorsey

All upside for both parties.

Ironically this is part of the reason cutting Hunt immediately was the right move.

The media likely would’ve tried to force us to get rid of both.

That's ****ing useless, then. He'll be suspended for most of that.

****ing Browns.

penbrook is still a ****ing idiot.

yeah but after suspension/s he wont even be able to play until week 7 or 13. .

LMAO

Penbrook is no more!!! It’s MAHOMO 4 LIFE!!

They must believe he'll get reinstated.

Anyway, this is one of those things where it was right for the Chiefs to release him, and it's right for him to get a second chance somewhere after missing most of two seasons by the time his suspension is up, if he puts in the work in the meantime to address his personality issues.

Exactly, this makes no sense whatsoever.

Back to Cleveland where all his troubles began?

Guess who owned the team at the time? Oh yea the guy you're saying forced the team to release Hunt.

How much of that will he actually be able play, I wonder?

This. It allows Hunt an entry point back to the NFL.

Frankly, I'm not sure being in Cleveland is good for him, that's where he got in trouble.

It's gotta start somewhere.

Dorsey don't give a damn. Big time for the Browns and he will stick around on the cheap. We should have worked it out. This sucks.

Sign him for 2020 if he keeps his nose clean this year.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

That is goddamned hilarious.

Well played, sir.

I never said that. I said Clark should’ve brought him back on a short term deal

He’s a RFA in 2020

Redemption is a powerful thing. Never underestimate it.

Ya now we just made ourselves look like idiots by saying that too. Should've at least held firm to make our franchise look better

Good move by Dorsey. He also did it early enough to let all the anger subside before training camp starts.

well, good for kareem

hopefully this will be a teachable moment for chunt

championships come with a bit of scum attached

Bring him back to the area he's had these incidents. Seems like a good idea.

Hmm. Good for Kareem. I think that we're going to be facing the Browns a lot in the coming years. Dorsey is going to make that team a perennial playoff team, probably as soon as the 2019 season. I wouldn't be surprised if they win the division several times in the coming years, and likely are no worst than 2nd most years, just like the Chiefs. So that will result in lots of regular season matchups and a few postseason matchups too. I will glad that he didn't go to an AFC West team, but I would have preferred seeing him in the NFC. Oh well, if we fix the defense and keep the offense rolling, it's not going to matter who the Chiefs face

uh, like KC?

...you guys are overreacting.

Yas, this.

Oh well.

I doubt that. It will 100% be brought up in training camp, and I'm sure guys like Baker Mayfield will be asked about it. Puts him in a tough position.

I'm just glad it's over. We have the best QB in the league and we don't need the distraction. Reid has a long history of drafting good RBs and doing it after the first round. Draft another RB and move on. This team has much bigger problems to address.

Yup. It’ll all be a distant memory by then.

I’ve said all along that we should’ve just held onto to him. He wasn’t taking hardly any cap. Shift the burden back to the league to punish him, because they told us to back off the investigation. We let the league off the hook.

Have fun hanging out with Mayfield.

my only hope is Kareem constantly interjects with Baker with stuff like "well, back in KC, Pat threw it this way". "Pat used to do this". "Pat used to do that".

The Chiefs did the NFL a huge favor. Sadly, nothing ever good comes from playing the good guy.

I mean anything can happen. But either way putting him right back where trouble brewed and around his crew doesn't seem like a good idea. Its like someone who's gone to AA for the past yr going right back out to the bars w/ his friends the moment he gets out of treatment.

But who knows..maybe the Browns will hire him a permanent babysitter.

The same organization that couldn't handle Josh Gordon?

It’s better than keeping him and the media dragging Hill’s name through the mud too, which is 100% what would’ve happened.

Not really. They will have him for a playoff push/run and then he will be a RFA so they can either tender him or be the first ones with the opportunity to sign him before becoming a URFA.

What a stupid ****ing post.
