We’ve gotten some more information about the contract signed between the Cleveland Browns and receiver Donte’ Stallworth.

The $10 million in guaranteed payments are part of a five-year, $35 million deal.

It’s not bad at all for a guy who couldn’t parlay a strong 2006 season in Philly into a big-money deal last year in free agency.  Instead, he got only (only?) $1 million in guaranteed money last year as part of a one-year “prove it” deal with the Pats.

Stallworth likely will be the starting receiver across from Braylon Edwards, with Joe Jurevicius relegated to second string.

Meanwhile, we need to echo MDS’s comments regarding the absence of a first-round, second-round, or third-round pick this year in Cleveland.  As a good friend of the site has previously explained to us in connection with the struggles of the Dolphins, the absence of multiple draft picks eventually could rob a team of its nucleus.

The Browns likely will overcome a single season without draft picks in the first three rounds.  However, we’re hoping that they don’t make a habit of it.
