    I am as anti QB/WR in the top 15 as anyone can be but I would take Bryant at 7 if the others are gone. Here's why.

    This draft is deeeeeeeeep with defensive talent. We can get a starting DB in the 3rd round if we do even minimal scouting. And the thought of having Robo in the slot, MoMass as the #2, and a 6'4 inch 230lb #1 who runs a 4.4 on the other side for the next 5 years is a really, really nice thought. ALthough, I still wanna get out of the #7 spot and compile picks. And if Bryant is there at #7, expect tons of phone calls to Heckert and Mangini to come in. Now THAT, is a really nice thought.

      We need offense we have none! Our first pick should be an offensive skill player. I will be disappointed if we ignore it once again as usual.

      Offense Wins.......Franchise QB's are the key.............Defense keeps you in the game.........Go Buckeyes

          The lack of skill players on Offense, Rich, has more to do with player evaluation than it does on ignoring the O side of the ball.

          Recent Top Draftpicks (Offense) - and I am ignoring Thomas and the Center because they don't fit the definition of 'skill players'.

          Brady Quinn

          Robiskie

          MoMass

          I agree that the RB position has been taken for granted - a nice way of saying 'underdeveloped'. was a pretty good stop gap but, the problem is, there is still nobody with any track record of success to run the ball (Harrison is still a big ? in my book).

          My personal opinion is that the Browns will draft Defense in Round #1 but they do have needs at RB, WR, TE.

            If you are refering to DEZ Bryant as being 6'4" 230, you are completely wrong, he is barley 6'2 and he is 217.

            Drafting him with the number 1 is not a great idea when we traded the same player away last year for a 3rd. There is a shit ton of value this year in the first 3 rounds, we might trade down again and get picks.

              I have an idea... Trade for a DB and draft later in the 1st and maybe an extra pick later on. Use the pick to grab an OT. Does anyone find John St. Clair as worthless as I do?

                Drafting Bryant, would certainly Make an Immediate improvement on our Offence, which Ranked 8th in Rush YDs, and OL Ranked 5th in QB Sacks and Hits, so our OL is obviously pretty solid, so adding an offensive threat like Bryant at WR alongside Harrison/Jennings/Davis/Cribbs at RB could spice up our offensive pretty well, and that even with keeping our poor QB's from last year. As guys are saying the DBs in this draft are pretty good, so taking that slot in 2nd or 3rd round and our team will start to look pretty good. Oh and by the way our Pass Rush was ranked 8th in sacks, and that was with some good players missing, so maybe our main areas of concern are just WR/DB.

                  Let our other WR develope. MoMass was spotty last year, but showed a shit ton of upside. Robo was invisible, but he will improve. Usually no rookie is that badass thier first year. Also we need a qb that can get them the ball a little more often. Any OL would be great with the #7 pick, but if we go anyother route, we need Mr. Spiller, he is going to be so nasty in the NFL. I still think Hayden will be there though. I also hope we can trade for Boldin, one of our 3rds or Shuan Rogers straight up would be great.

                    John so taking three skill players in six years was enough.................me I knew Quinn was a bust from day one and stated so

                    We have no offense we need guys who can score points..................

                    This franchise has dismally focused on all the wrong things for ten years now

                    That said I am more optimistic than any time since the resurrection of crap ten years ago

                    and Oh yeah Thomas and Mack were first round picks on a team devoid of people who touch the ball who make things happen............you supported my point

                    and don't forget they have a huge need at the most important position QB where two losers preside

                    Offense Wins.......Franchise QB's are the key.............Defense keeps you in the game.........Go Buckeyes

                        He's still a big reciever, like Andre Johnson. Wouldn't you want Andre Johnson? Case closed. Bryant is really good, nice hands.

                                Actually at 7 just take the best player there.

                                We can use many positions.

                                Bryant will need time to sync with whoever the QB is (and I hope Quinn gets a shot at it)

                                BTW somebody here predicted Troy Smith wouldn't suck so....

                                We need strenght on the right side since Tucker retired.
