The Cleveland Browns went for broke on Friday, engineering a trio of trades to bring in three-time Pro Bowl receiver Jarvis Landry from the Miami Dolphins, quarterback Tyrod Taylor from the Buffalo Bills and cornerback Damarious Randall from the Green Bay Packers.
but the Browns' stalwart offensive tackle Joe Thomas didn't let that stop him from giving his review of the moves.,The trades can't be formally announced until Wednesday
Whether he joins them on the field next season remains to be seen. The 10-time Pro Bowl selection reportedly told ESPN in an email his "decision will be based purely on my health."
Thomas missed games for the first time in his pro career last season after suffering a torn left triceps tendon in Week 7. He had played an NFL-record 10,363 consecutive snaps before the injury, making 167 straight starts dating back to his first game as a rookie.
especially for Taylor.,Thomas posted an "emergency" episode of his ThomaHawk podcast on Saturday, and gave the team high marks for the acquisitions, just hours before his brother's wedding

"I said that the Browns should be trading for Tyrod Taylor. Many weeks ago I thought he was the most underrated player that might be available at quarterback and lo and behold it seems like John Dorsey must be a big ThomaHawk fan."

Cleveland is sending a third-round pick (No. 65 overall) to the Bills for Taylor.
He also seemed excited about Landry's potential impact on the offense.
"You pair (Landry) with Corey Coleman and then a deep threat like Josh Gordon, that offense all of a sudden got really much more dangerous," Thomas said.
