You have misinterpreted my post likewise. The contract for All-Pro TE Trey McBride should have zero - none - notta impact in the Njoku negotiations. As I stated, Njoku hasn't come close meeting the ROI as he enters the final year of his deal. Njoku should have never been given the extension in the first place because he never lived up to his lofty 1st round draft position. Most teams do not exercise the 5th options on players that fail to meet expectations, but the Browns & Berry (much like today's MSM) sold us a make-believe story on Njoku's young age and chance at improving as the reason for picking up the option and the eventual unworthy deal. 8-years later we are still waiting on that top-notch play from Njoku that has eluded the Browns, Berry, and the fans for 8-years now.
As I said and greatly misinterpreted, never mentioning future money, McBride's contract shouldn't have any more impact on Njoku's contract negotiations than Mahomes contract has an impact on Pickett's contract - apples and oranges. 2023 Njoku had 81 receptions for almost 900 yards. He has flashed but has not stayed consistent. Being a contract year, I am hoping he puts up good numbers this year. I would also like to see the Browns draft another quality TE. This year's draft is loaded with good tight ends that will be available in the mid rounds. Going back to 12 and 13 personal groupings it would be good to have multiple quality TE's information at the same time. I have a hard time using 2024 as part of any sort of measuring stick for pass-catchers. That said, give KS the weapons to operate out of 12, 13 formations. A drafted TE in a strong class sounds great to me. A stronger (albeit slightly) WR room also helps the team in Njoku negotations.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.
