After Weighing Options, Browns 1st-Round Draft Pick Corey Coleman Decides To Retire

CHICAGO, IL – The Cleveland Browns seemed to have it all figured out.

Trade away their #2 pick with no need to draft a QB after signing RGIII, and then accumulate a plethora of draft picks.

The Browns changed strategies with their new management, try to gather as many draft picks as possible, rather than try to pick high as possible, and hope that player doesn’t result in a bust.

That plan is off to a bad start though. Early Friday morning at around 8:45 am, the Browns #15 pick Corey Coleman released a statement announcing his retirement from the NFL just hours after his career started.

Passing up on a lucrative contract and the possibility to suck with the Browns and then be a pro-bowler elsewhere.

A portion of his statement reads:

“I just can’t do it, it’s not worth it for me. Everyone in that green room came in knowing one of us where going to be sacrificed by the Browns, and the stars aligned and it ended up being me. For the sake of my name and career, I’m announcing I will go back to Texas and see if I can get a 9-5. Maybe the CFL. Who knows.”

Luckily for the Browns, they do have a good number of picks remaining in the draft, who will hopefully look for a playmaker no matter the position to help them become an actual NFL team.

The Browns have the 1st pick in the 2nd-round of the NFL draft which continues Friday night.

  1. whaaaa, I can’t help but to laugh. He only saw one option and that was to give up a possible lucrative career and then go or try free agency. man WHO was his agent, maybe he has something planned. By the way I am Browns fan

  2. This article doesn’t explain why he did this. Is it because the Browns suck and he doesn’t want to play for them? Is it because he doesn’t want brain damage from playing football? Can he simply go to another team later? I mean what is the point of writing something if the person who reads it ends up with a bunch of question they didn’t have when they started.

  3. Here’s the deal. Draftee’s are forced to sign with teams that draft them and they have NO CONTROL over their career. Based on the past history in Cleveland I believe he does not want to be part of that circus! Who would really want to go there until they prove they actually know how to run a professional football organization. Right now it is a mess. He will either get some kind of release or trade or in the worst case scenario he will reenter the draft next year. He is young.

  4. Oh my God… you people are all idiots.. you are probably the same people who believed in Y2K and 12/21/2012… I can’t believe people can be so stupid to believe shit like this.. IF he really didn’t want the MILLIONS of dollars the Browns will pay him over five years, he would have pulled an Eli Manning instead of this. You people need to do the rest of us a favor and not procreate and off yourselves too.. the gene pool is already completely fucked and people like you are going to drive the human race into extinction….

    • Don’t be a dick. Not everyone is familiar with trolling. Hopefully one day, you don’t run into one of these people you insulted. Because they may be that one person with the skill to save your life, at that moment. Some people make beautiful art but can’t form a grammatically correct sentence. They are not stupid. Some people teach English but can’t use a defibrillator. Some people can save lives but can’t change a tire. They are not stupid. Some people are smart and place themselves on a pedestal to make themselves feel better about their other shortcomings. And some people dedicate their free time to surgically shooting down dickbags who like to insult perfect strangers and feign intelligence. Shut up and go back under your bridge. Fucking clownshoes.
