Cleveland Reboot: "I've always enjoyed Engram – simply based on the idea that the Bears gave up on him a full decade ago, only to watch him become one of league's more productive wideouts. But again – the odds of a 37-year old wide receiver contributing are pretty slim.

Although I've already heard the howls of many Browns faithful who think the Engram signing is an indication that the Browns are again reaching for veterans – think about the 'greening' of the team in 2009 – this move is simply for insurance purposes. If Mohammed Massaquoi continues to progress and if Robiskie can unlock his NFL potential, this is a move that will be easily forgotten." » Read more

The six-year deal he'll receive from the Heat? He never offered the Cavs that long of a commitment." » Read more
