This is fantastic. What a great day.
With #2 and #75 coming back we are set up very well for a great run. If JL makes it a hat-trick I think I'm gonna cry.
Edit: Not that the return of Robo and Freeman aren't great news too!

In all honesty, Alex needed another year to mature. We need him to be the vocal leader on our offensive line next year that Barton was this past year which will only help his draft stock. This wasn't his money year. Next year he'll be in the first group preseason for the linemen awards and accolades that will make him a common name with NFL scouts.
Glad to have ya back for another year. Looking forward to seeing ya run through the Tunnel of Pride before The Game, Alex.

I think this was a great decision by Alex this year and Barton last year to come back - it will hopefully help solidify Alex's position as a first round pick.
Great point by RB07...I too think this allows Mike Adams to grow slowly into the position. Boone being forced to play early in his career (in 05) helped him learn quick but IIRC, Boone was slowly eased into the starting role.
My friends up in Cleveland who know his family were convinced in September this would be his money year (as Santonio put it). It is great to see him prove them wrong!

I too live in NE Ohio and "know" the family and never heard this from the family. To keep this as simple as possible, let's just say that most times in life, it is a wise thing to listen to one's parents.
Wise choice Alex. Looking forward to your senior year.

Alex Boone's pro stock will be cream worthy after next season.
