It&#8217;s, Terry McLaurin, I believe the words were, &#8216;I want $30 million,&#8221; saying he wants $30 million from Washington with just one year left on his contract,&#8221; Loeb said. &#8220;&#8230; I don\u2019t think there\u2019s a great chance, and if that were to happen, say goodbye to any big free agents you can sign in the next year or two and anybody you want to extend like a Greg Newsome or a Martin Emerson.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_vbjcrtkmn\">Loeb makes a terrific point, but one thing he also left out was McLaurin&#8217;s age. The two-time Pro Bowler turns 30 years old in September, so he doesn&#8217;t even really fit the Browns&#8217; timeline. And is it ever advisable to pay $30 million annually to an aging player?<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_e6953ne0r\">McLaurin hauled in 82 receptions for 1,096 yards and 13 touchdowns last season and has logged five straight 1,000-yard campaigns, so there is no doubt he would Cleveland&#8217;s offense. But would the financial hit and the potential for McLaurin beginning to decline be worth the risk?<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_oh0lg2jlc\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cleveland Browns definitely need some help at wide receiver, and there is still plenty of time for them to make a move between now and the regular season.
