Far be it for me to defend sports media, but the reality is they serve up what the public will/wants to consume. The same public who doesn't read/comprehend the words and context of something sport media provides, even if in 128 characters. So the public has as much blame if not more than the sports media for the current atate.
Using Conklin as the example, MKC report was basically nothing more than that Conklin is preparing for thr possibility that he could be cut/traded. To me this would fall under the no shit category. I sure hope he is and I would be based on how the NFL works as a business Jones showed he can play and is on a rookie deal. CLE needs to free up cap. Conklin accounts for 12M this year, and 19.5M each of the next two years. His contract is such that they can save cap and reduce his dead money depending on when they cut/trade him.

Post-JOK deal, we're still 8th. So, as many Browns fans have posted on X -- the Watson deal continue to not hamstring us whatsoever.

Oh, and where do we rank as far as total amount of dead cap? 26th. Damn good.

Spend money up front and avoid dead cap money. Sounds like good advice and damn near guarantees Jack Conklin will be here for the start of the season and I say he should get time in at LT if Wills can't play. Get him familiar now but most importantly put our two best Tackles on the line to start the season.
