Why Browns need WR depth
With the uncertainty surrounding veteran receivers Braylon Edwards and Donte Stallworth, the Browns continue to add depth to the position. On Tuesday, they signed six-year pro Mike Furrey, who spent the past three seasons with the Lions and his first three with the Rams. Furrey's signing comes on the heels of the Browns drafting Brian Robiskie and Mohamed Massaqoui in the second round of the draft and adding David Patten, Devale Ellis and rookie Jordan Norwood of Penn State as free agents. Stallworth will be arraigned May 21st on DUI manslaughter charges and Edwards, the subject of trade rumors, has been mostly absent from the team's off-season conditioning program.

I'm glad ManKok has built depth in the WR front.. it was a glaring need last year, since we'll need viable #2 and #3 options if Braylon "Sir Drops-a-lot" Edwards repeats his 2008 performance. I just wish I felt better about the defense.

What a stupid headline! Umm, because one of their starters will soon be "renting" Michael Vick's former digs and the other can't catch a cold if he was butt nekkid on the Frozen Tundra.

The Browns need depth at every position, and not just depth but skill as well.

Pops, I thought professionals got paid for what they did and amateurs did not.
Am I reading to much into this?

Steeler, what are you, some kind of Internet lawyer? What is it with the fine print? Codicils, stipulations, riders, clauses, addendums, provisos, provisions, prerequisites specifications, riders, caveats, qualifications.
We have wide receivers. Can we leave it at that?
Don't you have a business to run? Can you leave the Browns to ManKok? They can drive into Lake Erie without you. It's not too far.

There is no point to having the uniforms numbered from 1-99 if you do not use them all..That is reason enough in and of itself. The alternative to so many WRs is to do like the Bucs and set aside 8 numbered uniforms for the QB position........If you add too much depth at the OL of DL positions there is not enough room on the bus seats from the Airport to the Hotel for away games.....Those guys are just too big....Loading up on WR is the most cost effective way to go.

50, you let me use irrational numbers and I can solve all this just using 1-2. Heck, I can handle all 32 teams. Forever. No number recycled. Every number gets retired.
The power of math.
"Root 2 drops back and throw to root 3 who slips a tackle from sin( 1 )...."
-----
In mathematics, an irrational number is any real number that is not a rational number???that is, it is a number which cannot be expressed as a fraction m/n, where m and n are integers, with n non-zero. Informally, this means numbers that cannot be represented as simple fractions. It can be deduced that they also cannot be represented as terminating or repeating decimals, but the idea is more profound than that. As a consequence of Cantor's proof that the real numbers are uncountable (and the rationals countable) it follows that almost all real numbers are irrational.[1] Perhaps the best-known irrational numbers are ??, e and ???2.

i actually read that. Now my head hurts. Is it just coincidence that math is a four letter word?

Give me five minutes with a chalkboard and you would be a believer. You would exclaim "We have to call the Commissioner!"
