Mike Lombardi drops in a post on his web site that the Browns will "try to move outside backer/defensive end Kamerion Wimbley" prior to the trading deadline. What the … this makes little sense. I have no idea if the Browns are thinking of trying to do this, but if they do, it would be a mistake, because a team would be getting a very solid and underrated player.

it's all about self preservation for mangini. strip the team down to bolts and nuts so he can buy himself a couple years to his inevitable contract extension. it's so obvious and shameful it's disgusting. in 3 years 6 wins will look like an improvement and lock this fraudulent napolean into his next fat deal condemning the team to another half decade of garbage.
i'd rather have senile al davis, resident thug john herrera and slugger tom cable in cleveland than lerner and mangini. at least the raiders are so dysfunctional they provide sideshow entertainment. the browns just get lower, worse and dumber.
Mike Lombardi….the same know-it-all for Butchie Boy Davis? Wasn't he, like, a major idiot in Cleveland? So what's changed now? Does anyone take this hack seriously?
terje, you're borrowing my ideas. Although, in this case, I think folks have short memories. Wimbley has been pathetic for the past few years. Perhaps the Wimbley of six games is an aberration. The equivalent of a former Jet who found a few-week supply of Ryan Tucker's steroids lying underneath a table in the training room.
Make that five games, Wimbley didn't play against Pittsburgh.
By the way, Marc, what does a guy running the Bravens player personnel department have to do with his numerous sources he's developed after spending 20 years deep in the league? I've come to accept that when Lombardi says something is in the works and/or might happen, he's not blowing smoke based on conjecture he yanked from his derriere. The man is legitimately connected.
Besides, I don't have a day of employment in the NFL, let alone over 20 years working with front offices, scouts and agents and front office phones, but it makes perfect sense. No doubt Mangini sold Lerner that he has to first strip all of the high-round pollution littered and left by his predecessors, as well as the high-dollar free agent pollution left by his predecessors, like Fatso Rogers. A couple year process of waste disposal. Thus giving Mangini four years with which to supposedly build. Pretty clever. Who says chunky 30-something white guys shaped like Norm from "Cheers" have no brains.
