Joe Schobert's time in Cleveland has come to an end as multiple reports have surfaced that the Cleveland Browns are not willing to meet his price tag on a new contract. While Schobert is a Pro-Bowl caliber player, GM Andrew Berry and the Browns do not believe in Schobert enough to offer him the going rate for a quality NFL linebacker.
Schobert finished last season with 133 tackles, four interceptions, two sacks and two forced fumbles. A very solid season to have for his walk year in his contract.
While Schobert does have his limitations, he does excel in pass coverage which is becoming ever more important for linebackers to be able to do in today's NFL.
