    The Cleveland Browns are cleaning house. On Wednesday, the team terminated the contracts of some big-name players, including their biggest player—enormous nose tackle Shaun Rogers. In addition, the Browns, who are rebuilding once again under new coach Pat Shurmur, also released veteran linebackers Eric Barton and David Bowens, defensive end Kenyon Coleman, tight end Robert Royal and right offensive tackle John St. Clair. The 350-pound-plus Rogers, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, was slowed by injuries and played sparingly last season. He was due to make $5.5 million in 2011 with a $500,000 roster bonus. The Browns announced the cuts in a one-paragraph statement, and moments later Barton expressed his disappointment at being let go on his Twitter account. “No longer a Cleveland brown,â€￾ Barton wrote. “I’m gonna miss the great friends I met there.â€￾

    This is what Im hoping for here in Dallas

    I like Brent as an NT or preferable a Strong side 5 Tech, but I dont want him at NT full time next year. Im hoping we can land Taylor and move Brent over. Either way, couple one of them with Rogers and I'm good

    Rogers to me is absolute trash as a full time 3-4 NT. Doesnt have the conditioning or motor.. But if his snaps are limited, he can be a game changer when he is on the field. One of the few players that can both occupy blockers and get up field

    weve had this conversation a bunch of times when he left detroit....i couldnt agree more but he would be just delightful to rotate with casey

    I dont think you guys would go in that direction. I think you guys are more likeley to draft someone

    However, if they draft Taylor, Im spineshanking Rooney, and slashing Pouncey's achilles. Stay the heck away
