Joshua Cribbs in Green Bay

Special teams would be huge. Then count in all the offensive formations we could get creative with. He would be a nightmare for the rest of NFC north.

I’ve seen speculation that Cleveland could go the route AZ did with Boldin where they will want 2 high draft picks for him. I don’t know if we’d get enough out of him with our offense. Not sure if McCarthy would be inventive enough to use him in the offense to his full ability. It would be fun to have a guy as dangerous out there as him but I just think the price is going to be too high.

and every pizza guy in Cleveland asking for Cribbs to get a raise, I doubt TT will want to “pay da man” what da man really wants

on a return guy. Cribbs is a beast but Return men have a short height f their powers. I think Nelson can do just fine after a couple years.

But I rather find a player in the draft that can also play a position well (CB for example). And don’t forget about Blackmon, he had two punt TDs in 2008.

DD is unfortunately getting towards the end of his career, Cribbs could give us some depth on WR which is quality and he is a great return man.

They play a 3-4, so Kampman won’t go there. The organization will be kind to him, if they tag him, he’ll go to a 4-3.

I’d pay him 4-5 for three years no hesitation.

I agree to an extent. These players deserve high contracts. He would be working special teams and offense, which would include runing plays. Cribbs and players similar to him are very likely to sustain injuries. I believe in a high salary, low guarentee contracts. It’s not going to happen that easily: I understand. But, if we could strike a deal like that, we’d be set.

He’s a talented player and a big play weapon so that makes him a great addition. My two reservations are, first, all his public fighting with the Browns: Is that just because the Browns are inept or is he going to disrupt the team? And second, there is just so much wrong on special teams that Cribbs alone isn’t going to make the kick returns or punt returns better, he can’t make any impact on returns if the blocking is bad or they commit penalties on returns.

I still like Will Blackman and he will be a lot less expensive than what Cribbs would demand. I am not willing to make the same mistake as Chicago in overpaying a kick returner.

wouldn’t that be sweet. A fast RB, A fast KR/PR. I think you get your moneys worth with that guy.
