Quote In what was just a line item in CBS’s Mike Freeman’s latest column, a significant portion of the Browns brass appears ready to not only move on from Hillis, but replace him with Trent Richardson, the highly-touted running back out of Alabama. :pray: Please, not the Browns.

This^^^^^ Title: Re: NFL Rumors: Browns Front Office Split on Hillis, Considering Richardson Post by: Catch Prothro on February 16, 2012, 10:14:46 AM The greatest RB ever in the NFL, Barry Sanders, spent his days at the Detroit Lions. That didn't keep him from making a name for himself. Walter Payton was drafted by a Bears team with a losing record but put up big numbers anyway. While the Browns have a long history of mediocrity, that won't prevent Richardson from having success.

Imagine that conversation: "Hey Cote. Remember how Dareus made your a$$ quit two years ago, and me and HTWMI ran all over your defense? Yeah, that was a good day." TR might not get another carry after that. :D

He might add, "maybe now I can throw the ball because they'll have to stuff the line to stop you."

You know what you're getting with him, and that's an extremely physically gifted athlete with a tireless work ethic.
