I thought we could hit him with a 2nd round tender. I thought we’d either keep him or get something for him.he is a restricted free agent. It would be shocking not to see him back

I am ready to talk myself into Kareem Hunt being a Brown next year. Hear me out:
Why Hunt would want to stay:
1. Other NFL teams don't like spending big money for free agent running backs. Devontae Freeman, Jerrick McKinnon, and Todd Gurley all signed big contracts and then immediately became oft-injured liabilities to the cap. LeVeon Bell signed a monster contract with the Jets, and really hasn't moved the needle with the offense. Hunt can sign for a little less than Duke was supposed to make, which surprisingly made him the tenth highest paid back in the NFL, and continue to be a higher end Duke Johnson in this offense.
2. The Browns had his back when he was demonized by the national media. He made a mistake and has worked his ass off to change the narrative. This is his hometown, and after watching the Haslams back Myles during his suspension, he knows loyalty is a rare thing from management. When I saw Hunt jump into the Dawg Pound, I saw a guy who appreciates the franchise and the community.
3. Playing second fiddle to Chubb extends both player's careers. So far, he has been an important cog in this three game win streak. His blocking and receiving has been timely, obviously the offense has enough touches for him. Chubb was recently quoted saying the following: “We are just getting started. … The sky is the limit with what we can do with us in the backfield and us on the field at the same time. I just look forward to each week going out there and playing with another great player.” I'm not even going to mention how important both players are when somebody is banged up, but when healthy they seem to like this offense.
Bunt...... (less than 2 outs with runners in scoring position)Hunt, no dunce, hunts cunts in stunts. One cunt grunts, bears brunt of Hunt’s cunt punts. Hunt blunts shunts as Lutz runt grunts.

Damn. How much you think it’s going to cost to retain Hunt? I’d like him to stay for awhile. Hunt and Chubb backfield for a years to come is sickening.
Bring on them whore Steelers.

3/$18mil, call it a day with Hunt.
6 mill for a restricted free agent RB? waaaayyy too much money.....3 year 11 mill is my guess, 2nd round tender, good enough to keep him. Except QB's and a few key players, NFL is way under paid.
We are coming off an off-season where two of the best running backs in the game had lengthy holdouts. Zeke Elliott got what he wanted by the end of training camp, Melvin Gordon played a game of chicken until the season was well underway. Nobody can give a definitive value on Hunt right now because the NFL doesn't have a definitive value on the top running backs and what they deserve.
All that said, I see Mark Ingram signed for three years at five million a year. He has been part of a two back approach his whole career and went to a Pro Bowl. That is about as close as I can see to Hunt's value, but of course his suspension should play a role in the evaluation.
