Steve Smith?
-
This isnt too bad of a move, we dont have a veteran presence for the young receivers. I feel like Steve Smith could be a good target for McCoy
-
We just need a receiver....I feel like that is a huge hole in our team. It's just MoMass and he's a #2
-
We need to find a veteran WR. Smith is not ideal just because of his age. But he will be able to teach and work in an offense that he is comfortable in.

i hear there is a guy named plexico that might need a job this year. i'm just sayin.

Taking anything but a WR or RB in the first round is akin to accepting another 6 - 10 caliber year.
Not if the RBs you select are like William Green and the WR is like Willis Adams.
Give me Richard Seymour over Braylon Edwards any day. It all just depends on if the guy pick pans out.
-
No way to Plaxico...Once a Steeler, Always a Steeler. He's not welcome in Cleveland! I'd rather see Lebron come back to town than have to watch a steeler put on a Browns jersey.
-
Excatly how can you say we have to take a WR or RB in the 1st round thats crazy...One we have no d-lineman need help in the Secondary but yeah we need to take Mark Ingram at 6
-
We have 1 receiver. Can't win games if you can't score
So you reach for a WR who may not be as good as other prospects, id wait and take a proven Vet in F/A and just take BPA

We need a REAL WR. Steve Smith is a utility reciever. He is not going to cause chaos on the opposing D.
Just like HIllis is not going to create any havoc without help in 2011.
The Browns need playmakers who can change a game at any given moment, every single week. We don't have any of those guys on offense.
The Browns needs a killer WR, a shifty, slashing, RB, a pass rusher and a bad ass DB, in that order.

Tell all of the corners and safeties that have never been able to contain him that he is just a utility WR. He is not a real WR? This guy have been one of THE best in the league for years. Who do you think made Delhomme look good for all those years? Double teamed all the time. triple teamed and couldn't be stopped sometimes. You must be smoking something strong if you think this guy isn't a real WR. And for anyone who would take Plaxico over SS, well that is just CRAZY! SS may not be at his best but I bet he will look pretty good when he doesn't have a loser QB throwing him the ball.

I live in Charlittte and Steve Smith is a high maintenance dude. And injury prone in recent years and not a youngster anymore. And he is very short, like 5 "8" if that. I cannot remember many short receivers that lasted well into their thirties. I would much rather invest in a young guy and BTW, invest in an offense in the draft since defense never won much in terms of championships
I thought you lived outside of Youngstown.
As I understand it, Smith is still under contract with the Panthers, isn't he? Or is he pulling a Carson Palmer and saying that he demands a trade? The Ps however may not be as opposed to a trade as the Bengals however.
Also, I could see this scenario happening: A. The court has instituted a stay of the lockout. B. However, the NFL says they are going about essentially as if the lockout is still in effect, except for allowing the players to come into the team facilities and wander the hallways. C. BUT.....you have a "rogue" owner such as Mike Brown who says to hell with the NFL dictates, it is against the court order for them to do anything to me if I don't "stick to the plan", ergo, I am going to go ahead and trade Carson Palmer and get the best offer I can for him...probably much better than I could have gotten if the lockout had not occurred. (of course he would have to have another team also be willing to buck the system by doing the trade)
Does anyone think this sort of thing could occur?

I grew up in Ytown and Steve Smith is a FA and cleared his locker as said.................and I want no part of him..........and yeah I saw him just a few weeks ago here in Charlotte..............

You got your wish so to speak.......we again trusted a brain trust who made a brain dead decision in round one ten years running........except one
