Is Heckert Overrated?
-
Heckert had a decent draft last year, it was solid, he did not screw it up.
It's pretty sad that a guy gets credit for doing just-okay here in Cleveland.
Until he hits on some Desean Jackson,LeSean McCoy type players I don't see why everyone is crowning this guy like he is the freaking savior.
We been eating shit so long a fucking rotten hamburger looks pretty damn good, I want a fucking steak.
List of his Picks since coming to Cleveland.
#1 Joe Haden - Had a solid rookie season with 6 interceptions. Took a step back in the second half of the 2011 season,allowed several big plays,had no interceptions for the season. Needs to take the next step in his third year as a pro bowl caliber corner to live up to #7 overall expectations.
#2 T.J Ward - Added some toughness to the secondary,not good in coverage. Ended the 2011 season injured after concerns of injury problems coming out of college.
#3 Montario Hardesty - Injury concerns coming out of college. Traded up to draft him, played in 10 of 32 nfl games,266 career rushing yards.
#4 Colt McCoy - not a Heckert pick, Holmgren made the decision to draft him.
#5 Shawn Lauvao - Would expect more from a third round pick. Decent depth player on the o-line. Not starter material.
#6 Larry Asante - no longer with team 5th round pick
#7 Carlton Mitchel - Has not seen much time, may or may not have potential, will find out if he ever gets on the field.
#8 Clifton Geathers - no longer with team
#9 Phil Taylor - Solid rookie year 57 tackles 4 sacks. Huge body in the middle on the 30th ranked team against the run.
#10 Jabaal Sheard - The rap on Sheard coming out of college was good pash rusher weak against the run. Started the season off at weakside end (the pass rushing side) But moved to strong side end shortly into the season. Undersized and not ideal for strong side end. Baffling. Maybe he cannot handle NFL Left Tackles. Put up great rookie numbers.
#11 Greg Little - Solid rookie season. Hopefully will continue to develop and improve.
#10 Jordan Cameron - Project player did not see much playing time in rookie season. 4th rounder.
#11 Owen Marecic - Suffered two concussion. Did not do a whole lot. Did not fill the shoes of fan favorite Larry Vickers.
#12 Buster Skrine - Played very well for a late round pick.
#13 Jason Pinkston - Switched to guard after playing tackle in college. Had a solid season for a rookie playing a new position.
Allowed only one sack but gave up 11 QB hits.
#14 Eric Hagg - Seventh rounder still on the team.

How is Heckert Overrated ?
Are people in Cleveland calling him a genius ? Are people in Cleveland calling him the amazing ? No. Everyone feels that he is a guy who is doing his job and is doing it right as far as the draft goes. Many Clevelanders have expresse their disappointment at him for not going more towards Free Agency.
He has his share of bashers. If anything, he is getting a pass for not failing in the draft. Is that being overrated ?

LOL 6th hardest Schedule in the NFL...FACT, know your facts before you bash a top 10 defense
Bengals- 9-7 playoffs
Colts- 2-14
Dolphins-6-10
Titans- 9-7
Raiders 8-8
Hawks- 7-9
49ers- 13-3 could go play for Super Bowl
Texans- 10-6 Playoffs
Rams- 3-13
Jags- 5-11
Bengals- uhh playoffs
Ravens-12-4 could go to the Super Bowl,playoffs
Steelers- 12-4 playoffs
Cards- 8-8
Ravens- Second best record in the AFC
Steelers- Second best record in the AFC
So we played 8 out of 16 games against teams that went to the playoffs, and we played 2 out of the 4 teams remaining with a chance to go to the Super Bowl
10 out of 16 with a .500 record or better
14 out of 16 against teams with a better record than us
131-99
Yea thats a eay Schedule

Pretty damn good. Hardesty is the only bust, although I'm not sure they have given up on him yet. Skrine and Hagg could be keepers, along with Pinkston those are some nice late round finds.
Beats the hell out of how we were drafting before Heckert.
Zombo
If you go back a read interviews after the 2010 draft, it was Mangini who told Heckert to draft Lauvou.
In the past two drafts Heckert has picked 3 players that made the all rookie team. Sounds pretty good to me.

I am pretty sure Ward also made all rookie team which would actually make 4 players.
As far as the playmakers argument being made by the Queen and her jester ...
You gals are right we do need play makers, but when Heckert took over we pretty much needed everything. Heckert chose to mainly focus on the defensive side of the ball the last 2 drafts though. Low and behold the defense has been better then then in years past.
He also did take a gamble on a couple playmakers in round 2 of each draft in Hardesty and Little. Hardesty I think is a bust. I don't think it takes a genius to see that as he can't stay healthy. Little I think could be a very productive WR. It just takes some time for WRs to develop at the pro level. Especially second round WR's. Just be patient with him. I can only think of one WR off the top of my head that wasn't drafted in round 1 and was a 1000 yrd WR in his rookie year and that is Colston ... and he just barely broke the 1000 yard mark and had a great QB.
And how did playmakers in the rounds 1 and 2 work for us in the past? Tim Couch, Willian Green, KJ, Q, Andre Davis, Dropcutt, Braylon,Robo,MoMass ... do you guys miss any of them?? The only 1 I honestly could say I miss (or atleast did miss) was KWII and was he worth giving Detroit a free second rounder to move up 1 spot and have to wait 2 years for him to play??
Football isn't just about playmakers or just about fatass lineman. It is about both. It takes 11 guys working as a TEAM on each side of the ball every game. For the most part with the exception of the QB everybody is just as important as the next. When Heckert took over he had about 3-4 real legit non ST quality starters (Rubin, JT,DQJ and Mack)out of the 22 he needed and no depth. Now he has a solid 10-12 quality starters (Ward, Haden, Taylor, Sheard, Little, Watson, Hillis) and some decent depth guys (Moore,Fuj,Gocong) and some intriguing prospects (Cmaeron, Mitchell, Skrine, Hagg)
If the front office can make a decent splash and bring in the RIGHT FA's and Heckert continues to draft quality first and second round picks we will improve pretty quickly.

Heckert was good while at Philly, he's doing a good job here. As always, the question is "Who do you have in mind who is BETTER than him" - not just "is he what I think I want today."
He can't fix the entire team at once, and this thread's bizarre attempts to blame everything on him [Who here remembers how horrible the Browns were in 2009?] luckily don't fly with either Holmgren or Lerner.
Marecic was a miss due to the concussions, we'll probably have to draft/FA another FB pretty soon. Cameron, Lauvao, Asante, Geathers were misses. Hardesty might be a miss, we'll see. McCoy in the 3rd was a good pick.
The analysis of the GM has to be what was thought of him AT THE TIME - geathers was a good try for a 7th rounder, Asante was thought to be good at the time, Lauvao/Cameron were highly rated, Marecic was tied for the top FB rating in the draft.
Rich and Ghoolie: If offensive talent was so important, why are the Cowboys, Saints, and Packers at home right now? Get out of here with that "skill positions are the only important thing" BS. Both of you are wrong - get over it. Can't wait to see more of your idiotic spin. Thank God Holmgren doesn't listen to your constant bleating.
The more labels you have for yourself, the dumber they make you. "When you win, say nothing. When you lose, say less." Paul Brown -

We have to trust in their plan. It's bizarre they went into 2011 with an unproven coach, and serious question marks at the WR position- but it is what it is.
I believe they want to fix it, we'll see who buys into their plan in free agency.

I don't think you can call Cameron a miss when he was drafted knowing that he was going to be a project player that was going to take more than one season to see the field. With the exception of Lauvou who I already mentioned was a Mangini pick the rest are 5th round and later picks, who you don't expect to make the team.

I posted something similar in this thread. You just have to realize that all facts and reason are lost on Ghoolie and Rich..

It's been 19 months since we passed on Julio Jones to later swap 1st rounders and an additional 3rd rounder for Phil Taylor, and it's 5:49 pm and Heckert still sucks.
-
He really has focused on getting both lines to be solid, which is extremely important (ask the Eagles right now) by re-signing Thomas, and drafting Lauvao, Schwartz, and Pinkston on O and brining in Taylor, Sheard, Winn, Hughes, Rucker, Parker, and re-signing Rubin.
Add in the young guys on O, Weeden, Richardson, Little, Gordon, Cameron, Benjamin and that's a nice core.
The biggest holes are in the back-7 of the D. He's done well by bringing in Ward and Haden, and re-signing D Jackson. But really, as far as NFL quality, that's all we got back there. We need 2 OLBs, a CB, and a FS still which could be done in one draft (considering Gocong / Robertson / Maiava may fill-in as one of the OLBs).
I would like to see Heckert reach into FA and find us a more consistent run-blocking OG, and a veteran WR on offense. Also, to fill in one of the above holes on D.
We can address OLB or CB in the 1st round. Add the other and/or a DE in the 3rd. Pick up a FS at some point (this will actually be a deep draft at that position).
I'm just worried a new GM would mean a whole new vision, and a breakup of the core of talent this team has. In my opinion, coaching and inexperience has been the biggest weaknesses so far this year... not lack of talent.

If Browns fans want to hate on GMs they should be directing their anger to the ones before Heckert. Those drafts are the reason that this team has been so bad for so long.

Nine starters my ass. Just b/c they start for the Browns doesn't make them NFL starters. Of Heckert's first draft only Haden could start for any team. And he was a top ten pick (7th). Ward would be a backup. McCoy 3rd string, maybe. Lauvao's a backup.
Second draft, he WAY overpaid for Taylor. On any other team he'd be in the rotation. But when you spend a #1 and a high #3 on a guy he HAS to be dominant. Taylor isn't. Little would be a role player, not a starter. Cameron a PS player and Marecic would be unemployed.
This last draft the fool traded up again for another injured RB. Then uses the 22nd overall pick on a 28y.o. rookie QB. Brilliant.
The word to best discribe Heckert as a GM is JAG. Just A Guy. Anybody, and I do mean ANYBODY could have done as well as he has over the last 3 drafts. Top ten picks in every draft and NO pro bowlers in the lot.
Clearly he's part of the problem, not the solution.
The good news is, he's gone after 7 more games.

Wow, way to go back to a post I made in January. Let's see if maybe you liked the latest draft better:

Clearly you should have been in charge of the last draft, then we wouldn't be saddled with Richardson and Weeden.
We'll check back with you on them once their rookie seasons are over.
