    Trade: QB: Derek Anderson & Pick 5-3 (From TB, K2 trade) For RB: Michael Bush Raiders ( The raiders need a QB and while Derek Anderson really isnโ€™t that good neither is Charlie Frye or Bruce Gradkowski and atleast DA has a big arm which Al Davis will like.)

    Free Agents:

    QB: Kellen Clemens, New York Jets The Browns decide to part ways with Anderson and they need a backup QB. So why not sign another Jet?

    TE: Tony Scheffler, Denver Broncos While Matt More came in and did a good job during the end of the year Schefller is an elite tight end who can block and would immediately upgrade our passing offense which is drastically needed.

    RT: Alex Barron, Rams I think we will all agree that the browns need a new right tackle because well St. Clair sucks. Considering a lot of quality tackles are available in free agency the Browns decide to sign Barron instead of spending a pick on a right tackle.

    ILB/OLB: Derrick Johnson, Kansas City Chiefs Was benched this year and has had a bad relationship with new coach Tod Haley. Johnson was up for trade during the beginning of the year and should be available in free agency. It would be interesting to see what Rob Ryan could do with his talent.

    I say you make a few good options. Alex Barron,Derrick Johnson,a possible DA trade .I believe one or both qb's will be moved hopefully for more picks this year and or nexy year.I wouldn't dive to deep into FA's.Too much time and money has been spent on FA's .Although its early in the off season,here are some interesting draft picks. 1-RB Spiller,play multiple positions.2-Reshad Jones S Georga.3-Sapp OLB Clemson.3-Hernandaz TE Florida.4-Arenas CB Alabama.

  • I'd like TE Aaron Hernandez from Florida in there somewhere. I always liked Michael Bush coming out of Louisville but it's unclear how much Al Davis is willing to part with him.

  • Heyward is heading back to Columbus (and I'm glad about that), but I lilke the pick. He will be a very good 3-4 DE. Also, I don't think Barry Church will be there in the 7th round - although I'm high on Church, too. He has good size and is stout against the run. Gilyard, who again I really like, will most likely be gone in the second round.

  • DA is not going to be traded when he is owed $5M and another $2M in roster bonus. He will be cut free.

  • We need more talent at the WR position. We need either a free agent or Dez Bryant.

  • Well im drunk so i didnt read the whole thread but the original post except for the trade dealing DA a 5th and a 3rd for a unproven running back. If i am misreading the trade please explain to me

  • We need more talent at the WR position. We need either a free agent or Dez Bryant.

    @theclevelandsound said:

    Sure do- wonder what kind of price tag the Cardinals will put on Boldin. Bryant or Gillyard, that will be the question. IMHO, if the Browns hang on to the #7 pick, they'll go D with it. Dead last in the NFL is all you need to know. ๐Ÿ™‚

  • I'd love to see Arenas in Cleveland, but I think he'll go a lot earlier than most people expect. I just have a feeling. I had the same feeling with Jerome Simpson a couple years back, and I was right about that. Granted, I'm biased on the Simpson front.

    I think we can do no wrong with picking either Haden or McClain with our 7 pick.

    No need to be a douchebag. He's just trying to provide some sort of blueprint or guesstimate for the upcoming offseason. Instead of pointing out his failures, why not come up with your own ideas? Or do you just lurk in the background, hating on people's opinions whilst providing none of your own?

    nobody not even the raiders want Anderson

    Free Agents:

    QB: Kellen Clemens, New York Jets The Browns decide to part ways with Anderson and they need a backup QB. So why not sign another Jet?

    fail

    TE: Tony Scheffler, Denver Broncos While Matt More came in and did a good job during the end of the year Schefller is an elite tight end who can block and would immediately upgrade our passing offense which is drastically needed.

    fail

    RT: Alex Barron, Rams I think we will all agree that the browns need a new right tackle because well St. Clair sucks. Considering a lot of quality tackles are available in free agency the Browns decide to sign Barron instead of spending a pick on a right tackle.

    RFA

    ILB/OLB: Derrick Johnson, Kansas City Chiefs Was benched this year and has had a bad relationship with new coach Tod Haley. Johnson was up for trade during the beginning of the year and should be available in free agency. It would be interesting to see what Rob Ryan could do with his talent.

    you=fail....much, much worse.

    you gave no reasoning for any of that drivel.

  • An offseason in which our only additions at safety are Jordan Lake and Barry Church would be pretty risky, in my view. If those guys are our rookie additions, we'd also need to add a competent veteran who could start immediately, perhaps trading a 5th to the Pats for James Sanders.

  • Kinda good. I know that Lefevour wont be there in the 6th round. Id rather take Mclain with the 7th pick to play inside, he is nasty. with the second pick I take Patrick Robinson CB from FSU.

    I would try and stay away from ACC or SEC players a lot them are nothing but trouble and are always getting arrested. especially those boys from Florida schools.

  • I'd like TE Aaron Hernandez from Florida in there somewhere. I always liked Michael Bush coming out of Louisville but it's unclear how much Al Davis is willing to part with him.

    M Bush could be the real deal..would have won the heisman 06 hadn't he broke his tibia 1st game.. saw him play at louisville..type of player who could take over a game back then....a ton of potential...hell he can even qb...had great qb numbers as high school stud...interesting

  • I hope Cleveland doesn't break the bank for a TE like Scheffler. He's so far from elite it's absurd (I'd rank at least fifteen TEs above him: Gates, Witten, Cooley, Shiancoe, Shockey, Miller, the other Miller, Davis, Clark, Carlson, Celek, Heap, Finley, Boss, and Winslow). I like Moore at TE, believe it or not, if we can pick up one legit WR. And I want it to be one through FA. I'd like to see our biggest FA acquisition at that WR spot. Give me someone with work ethic, experience, and the ability to make defenses take account of him on every play. That's going to open up Moore and the running game, even if we're playing dink-and-dunk in general.

    Moore's numbers project out to (at 16 games): 38 catches, 506 yards; Scheffler had 31 for 416 on the season, and never had significantly better numbers. But I'll stop beating that horse.

    A guy like Boldin may not want to come to Cleveland, but there are other good WRs out there.

    Brandon Marshall. The Bad: He's insane. The Good: 307 catches, 3700 yards, and 23 TDs over the last three years.

    Derrick Mason: The Bad: He's 36. The Good: 256 catches, 3100 yards, 17 TDs over the last three.

    Boldin: The Bad: Has missed 7 games over the last three; The Good: Averaging 6.3 catches, 75 yards, and .6 TDs per game over the last three.

    Bush is the best overall RB for the Raiders. Fargas is a better runner when he's healthy, but he's never healthy. I cannot see the Raiders letting him go unless they get something very nice in exchange. Al Davis is stupid, but he loves his athletes.
