On Saturday, the Cleveland Browns traded a seventh-round pick in 2017 for Pro Bowl punter Andy Lee. The Browns gave up virtually nothing for the punter, and it’s because of the low price paid that the team can be comfortable with their most recent acquisition.
Subsequently, after the acquisition of Lee, the Browns cut Spencer Lanning, who is going into his third season as an NFL punter.
Just want to say thanks to all the 49er fans for the past 11 years. It was a great ride.

So was choosing Lee over Lanning the right choice?
