CLEVELAND, Ohio - When the Browns couldn't reach an agreement with wide receiver Terrelle Pryor, they moved on and offered the same basic contract to Kenny Britt.
Pryor misjudged the market, plain and simple. But that's when it got more complicated.
A softer market didn't bring Pryor back to Berea, where his breakout season and work ethic prompted Joe Thomas and Joe Haden to speak up on his behalf in the days preceding free agency.
My take is Pryor wasn't going to accept a multi-year deal at significantly less than what he perceived as fair value.
