The Cleveland Browns Should Consider Trading Josh Cribbs!

Let us start off with the facts and leave your emotions as a Cleveland fan out of the equation. Okay, since I now have an objective audience, Josh Cribs has scored only 2 touchdowns in the last twenty games. Now, that is combining kickoff returns, punt returns, rushing, and receiving. Cribbs’ current frustrations are laughable. Just imagine the Cleveland Browns front office frustrations. It seems like as soon as Cribbs got paid, he slacked off and is a shell of the player he was when he was making Pro-Bowls. Compare him to Devin Hester over the same time period all of 2010 and the beginning of this year Hester has 5 receiving touchdowns, 1 kick return for touchdown, and 4 punt returns for touchdowns totaling in 10 touchdowns. Cribbs should be more concerned about learning how to run routes and becoming an offensive option instead of hiding behind a special teams unit that will be fielding mostly touchbacks because of the new NFL rules. He might just be the worst receiver on the Browns finishing 6th in receptions last year and 7th in yards on a team with no clear number 1 receiver. If he approached the game with the same passion that he did years ago, the Browns would be in decent shape with him taking a leadership role and showing the young players how to be a professional. But the problem is, he is too busy blaming his lack of production on the fact that he is not on special teams as much. Why not trade him to a team and get a veteran receiver or a draft pick? He himself said that he is insignificant on offense! Let the man go and improve your team! Put some talent around your young Quarterback and see what he can do!
