Donte Stallworth frustrated with current QB, attempts to join Prison League with Vick

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte Stallworth must have been disappointed with his 17 catches last season, and as a result he’s trying to catch something other than a pigskin; a case. If you haven’t heard, Stallworth hit and killed a 59 year old crane operator with his Bentley in Miami. According to Donte Stallworth’s attorney, authorities have yet to release blood tests which will determine the WR’s future, but the Miami Herald reports his blood-alcohol level was over the legal limit. Getting lit and driving around in his high-profile Bentley must appeal to the well-traveled receiver, who already has one DUI under his belt.

Odds are the reports of Stallworth being over the legal limit are accurate, and Stallworth might be catching something other than a football or a criminal case; a ‘cockmeat sandwich.’ If convicted, Stallworth is going to do a good chunk of time in the slammer, where he will have plenty of time to perfect his balls-hand coordination.

Although it is a tragedy a 59 year old man trying to provide for his family lost his life, Browns fans can count this as a blessing. If accused, the Browns can dump Stallworth’s 35 million dollar contract. Although 5 million a year is not too pricey, it is not worth 17 catches and one TD a season. The Browns receiving corps is an immense problem. After trading away the only good set of hands in Kellen Winslow to the Bucs, the Browns would be left with Braylon Edwards. Braylon Edwards is extremely athletic, but he is too involved in his celebrity status. 5 hour energy drinks have turned Edwards’ hands into stone, and he is no longer a threat.

If there were any questions about who the Cleveland Browns should take with the 5th overall pick in this year’s draft, it should be getting clearer and clearer. If Michael Crabtree is around, the Browns have got to snatch him up.

This could be a sign of good things to come in Cleveland. Although a man lost his life, and Stallworth will most likely be behind bars, Cleveland reaps the benefits. They will be able to clear up some cap space, which could make them players with some top Free Agents. There are several positions Cleveland needs to address, and dumping former GM Phil Savage’s knee jerk hire of Stallworth will do nothing but help. My condolences go out to the family of the deceased, but Browns fans should look at this as a blessing in disguise.
