There is one more game, the Week 8 Monday Night Football game on Halloween against the Cincinnati Bengals, before the trade deadline, and it sounds like the Browns are already entertaining offers.

First, there was the earlier report about Kareem Hunt.

Now, there is reporting by Brad Stainbrook’s sources that Greedy Williams could be traded.

Fans had some interesting reactions to this news.

1. Is This Baker’s Yard Sale?

It is important to find some humor in this mess of a season, and Twitter user KMR struck the right note in the following post:

“Is this that yard sale Baker was always talking about? oof.”

This is in reference to Baker Mayfield‘s Progressive Insurance commercial from FirstEnergy Stadium last season.

2. What Would The Browns Get In Return?

There was a lot of discussion about underperforming defensive players that come out of LSU and how the Browns have a plethora of them.

Williams’s value was also questioned given his checkered injury history.

I would say they are not getting many offers for a player that has been injured a majority of his short career. They might get a 6th rd pick if someone is desperate

For what? A bag of chips and a beer? There is a glaring trend of LSU defensive players and underachieving results when they turn pro. And we have a bunch of them.

John Walsh suggests that the trade value will not be very high for Williams.

3. Can Others Be Traded?

This is where fans sounded off on other players and members of the coaching staff that they would like to see the team part ways with sooner rather than later.

Defensive coordinator Joe Woods tops the list, and special teams coordinator Mike Priefer is second in line.

If we’re going to start making changes now how about we start by firing Joe woods and Mike preifer?

John Johnson III’s name came up as fans suggested the team should consider trading him.
