Trent Richardson dealt to Colts
__________________________________________________

Richardson

Not long ago, Trent Richardson was viewed as a cornerstone for Cleveland's future.

On Wednesday, he became part of its recent inglorious past.

The Browns traded the powerful running back to the Indianapolis Colts in a stunning move right before the start of the season and one year after drafting Richardson in the first round.

The trade was first reported by ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

Richardson told reporters Wednesday night that he wanted Browns fans, who he called "some of the best fans I've ever been around" to know "his first team will always be the Browns."

He said he learned of the trade when he got a phone call from a friend and he then turned on the radio to hear the news for himself.

"I can't believe it. I didn't see it coming anywhere. I guess it was the best move for the Browns," he said. "I wanted to be a Brown, I didn't see it coming but at the same time I'm a Colt now and have to get ready for Sunday's game."

Cleveland's new front office dealt Richardson for a first-round draft pick next year, when the team will have two opening-round selections and 10 overall. Cleveland is rebuilding again and the team hopes to use those picks -- seven in the first four rounds -- to help turn around a floundering franchise.

Such a reversal was what the Browns had in mind when they took Richardson with the third overall pick in 2011. The former Alabama standout seemed to have it all: power, speed and good hands.

But Richardson wasn't the type of back Cleveland's front office wanted or apparently suited first-year coach Rob Chudzinski's offense. Richardson, who rushed for 950 yards as a rookie despite playing most of last season with two broken ribs, gained just 105 yards on 31 carries in Cleveland's two losses this season.

Sturgis Kicks Dolphins To Win Over Browns

The Cleveland Browns were in a dog fight with the Miami Dolphins in both teams season opener, but turnovers were the downfall for the browns as they fell to the Dolphins 16-14.

Quarterback Brandon Weeden, who beat out Brian Hoyer in the preseason, threw for a lowly 68 yards on 6-22 with 4 interceptions. Weeden constantly overthrew his receivers all game and all 4 of his picks were horrible forced passes to Josh Gordon. Hoyer came in for one drive after Weeden suffered a foot injury.

Even though the passing attack was down right embrassing, rookie Knile Davis was able to rush for 106 yards in his NFL debut. Backup Bobby Rainey finished with 52 yards and the Browns lone offensive touchdown.

The Bad quarterback play wasn't just limited to the Browns, Ryan Tannehill only threw for 59 yards before being replaced in the 3rd quarter by Matt Moore after suffering a broken collarbone. Moore played well enough to get the Dolphins the win.

On the defensive side, the Browns were able to sack Tannehill and Moore 6 times in the loss. D'Qwell Jackson, Quentin Groves, and Jabaal Sheard each had 2 sacks apiece.
