When teams are so willing to rid themselves of players who are considered high profile, doesn't that instantly set off a red flag?!?

This makes my fantasy waiver wire even more interesting for tomorrow. Looks like I need to target Bobby Rainey or Willis McGahee.

You will be in the minority here. Not sure how this would be viewed as a steal.

Dude ran for 950 and 11tds his rookie season with broken ribs most of the time.

trading a top 3 pick pick with experience for less than that is a STEAL

Colts got a break Richardson's salary, that is the only value. I'm not familiar enough with their salary cap situation to know how tight against it they are. Besides that, there is no value. Richardson has shown to be an injury risk, and was traded for a 1st rounder. There is no profit to be gained here. Colts are filling a need, plain and simple.

Would you say this about Heath Shuler, Akili Smith or Ryan Leaf?

So you would trade a 3rd round pick with a sweet rookie season for a 16+ pick? Kid played for the BROWNS. I'm no TR fan but kid will kill it with the Colts

I know the Browns did not possess a passing threat and allowed other teams to stack the box, but the Browns also had an excellent O-line.
