    Thoughts on LB Payton Wilson, NC State with the 2nd round pick? Is that a legit spot for him?

    He has some red flags, specifically his injury history, but man he's got some tools galore.

    That injury history could push him back to our 1st draft slot.  When you get home from work I just started a thread nobody will see until tonight about who do you think the Browns will pick at #54 overall?

    Tomorrow night? I'll be back at home and settled in with the rest of the week off. 

    Looking at another group TBB film session.

    Would be a great way for us to establish some better understanding of Payton's game.

    Ok, I've never done this...

    How do you do the thing you do regarding discord?

    A ton more straight forward than what I thought when I first started. 

    - Download and install discord.  Preferably on a computer, laptop, tablet.  Phone will work. 

    -Setup your name and password on it like you would a forum. 

    - I'll list a link here that takes you to TBB server.  You can copy and paste it in the discord program, or the link itself *should* open it and take you right where you need to go. 

    - At that point, all you do is click on the discord voice channel and click "view stream" 

    - It'll take you to my desktop screen, you'll see and watch exactly what I'm watching and I'll handle it from there.

    just for rotation, But for the right price I have heard his name tossed around

    Carl Lawson
    NYJ • DE • #58

    An Achilles tear limited Lawson's productivity in New York in terms of games played, but he rebounded from that with 49 pressures and 7.0 sacks in 2022 (11.9% pressure rate). The Jets essentially relegated Lawson to a backup role after a back injury last August, as he didn't record a sack and played just 98 snaps.

     

    A healthy Lawson would be a good find for a team needing pass-rushing help.

    https://discord.gg/6gSKcVUc

    The link to the discord server itself.   

    - Install the app

    - setup your account

    - click the link

    If you don't have the app installed, it will try to run it from a webpage off of that link. Which I've never done before, but you're welcomed to try.

    I'm on now and we'll be on throughout today as I relax and do some emails, paperwork and listen to music.   

    I'm cruising the entirety of the all-22 from Michigan v Bama watching JJ McCarthy on offense and Junior Coulson on defense.

    Former 1st Rounder Worth a Flyer for Browns to Add LB Depth

    That was an interesting article.  It mentions the consideration/idea of using Jamal Adams exclusively as a LBer since that was the situational role he did best moving into the box as an extra LBer.  However, it also talked about his inability to stay healthy.  It makes sense because asking a 6-1 player only weighing 213 pounds to make a living playing LBer in the box is going to challenge the durability of a guy that has trouble staying healthy.  All that said, he's really good against the run and it doesn't sound like he'll be expensive to sign.  My guess is Schwartz would like this idea.
