Adam Gase would use Browns as threat

Current New York Jets and former Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase would use a trade to the Cleveland Browns as a threat.

Adam Gase confirms what we all thought. He’s a jerk. Instead of trying to actually find a way to coach his team he would threaten to trade them if they did not “fall in line”. And of course the place he threatened them with was Cleveland. The thought process being to send them to the Browns to die. 

This isn’t a new thought process. Many teams and front offices have used this strategy. This doesn’t make it any less of a jerk move. Apparently the jerk store has not run out of people who are hell bent on ending the career of a player they do not get along with.

Adam Gase sent Jarvis Landry to Cleveland after it became apparent that they could not work together. It was clear that they didn’t get a long and the relationship between the two was beyond repair. Because of this Landry got what Gase probably assumed was the end of his career. 

However the joke is on him.  Landry is in a better position now than under Gase. Miami is now a complete dumpster fire who is just looking to trade anyone and everyone. Gase is in New York and his career did not get off on the right foot after he looked like a complete psychopath in his introductory press conference. 

Minkah Fitzpatrick should interest Browns

The Miami Dolphins are in full firesale mode. Minkah Fitzpatrick is allowed to seek a trade and the Cleveland Browns should be interested.

A name that could interest the Cleveland Browns has hit the market. Minkah Fitzpatrick. Fitzpatrick wants out of Miami and that comes to the surprise of no one. The Dolphins are openly tanking to the displeasure of players. Fitzpatrick is better than what he has shown this season and could certainly help the Cleveland Browns this season and in the future.

Miami reportedly wants a first round pick for Minkah Fitzpatrick. That’s nonsense. Fitzpatrick was a first round pick, but that is not how returns typically work. The fact Miami is openly tanking hurts them leverage wise. Everyone knows they are trying to jettison players, putting them in a bad spot negotiation wise.

Part of the reason that Minkah Fitzpatrick wants out is due to the fact they are playing him in multiple positions. Fitzpatrick is a great slot corner, but he is not a safety. So those who are trying to make Fitzpatrick a replacement for Damarious Randall can stop now. Fitzpatrick is not big enough to play safety and certainly is not comfortable in that position.

A combination of Denzel Ward, Greedy Williams and Minkah Fitzpatrick as the top three corners would be something. This would give the Browns secondary a nice little bump depth wise.

With how pass happy the NFL is now it is crucial to have top tier defensive backs. It is also crucial to have a lot of depth at those positions. Having quality depth will allow the Browns pass rush to get home and sack the quarterback. A pass rush is only effective if the corners can cover. Acquiring more corners who can cover will only make the pass rush better.
