Hillis To Kansas City
-
The more I look at it, there really are quite a few options at HB in the draft for later rounds.
At this point I wonder what type of RB they are wanting. Speed or Size?... There aren't a lot of 'big' RBs in the draft...
There is a lot of potential speed though.
You spend the number 4 overall pick on a back that is FAST and STRONG. You spend that pick with a smile knowing that you're getting an everydown back that can do it ALL. He's a player that teams will have to be accountable for each and every game. He's all about team and doesn't have a diva or me-first personality... His name is Trent Richardson, and he's a beast, In fact his nickname is "The Beast in the Hoodie"... nice. I like him better than Hillis already.

There is a very BIG difference between Hillis and Richardson. Hillis was drafted as a FB. Richardson is an ELITE NFL RUNNINGBACK PROSPECT! Hillis was great in 2010 but his true colors showed this last season and him picking KC over us tells all. Hillis was never that fast, he was big and powerful and deceptively elusive but not on Trent Richardson's level... not even close.

Bravo, Browns.
You are becoming a Peggy Lee poster, Ghoolie. Is that all there is? Is that all there is to your commententary?
OK, but now, who are the Browns going to have to run the ball?
If you don't have an answer, then keep on dancing

"Let's bring out the Booze and have a ball." That's my theory.
I have always liked Peggy Lee.

Get back to me after this year. If he only runs for 500 yards the Chiefs overpaid him.
We may (in your words) have flushed some crap- however, we're now likely going to have to use a draft pick to re-load the commode. Hardesty's a crip, Oobi-goobi is a practice squad player and Brandon Jackson (who was signed last year as a third down back) is coming off of a toe owie. Have a couple of other guys on the roster as RBs that you probably never heard of- so let's hear it for Armond Smith! the next Emmitt Smith!!!!
kinda being a little hard on ummm "oobi goobi." kinda funny when he started to get into groove hillis got cured of cancer or whatever.... and he was the only rb that could stay healthy...Get back to me after this year. If he only runs for 500 yards the Chiefs overpaid him.

Hillis was got for a Brady Quinn pick. When healthy that guy could grind out a few yards. Richardson had a knee surgery unlike Hillis. Richardson would cost us a 1st round draft pick unlike Hillis. And Hillis for the cost of 1 year 3 mill is a bargain deal. Also Hillis did show his true colors. When KC made him an offer - His agent called the Browns to see if they would atleast match it. And they did not even make an offer, although they said in the public that they would take Hillis at the right price. Yup, it was Hillis who showed his colors alright.

Is Richardson better than Ingram who came out of Alabama last year ?
-
I think Richardson was better, but now he seems more into body building than developing a football physic.
All he talked about pre-combine was doing more bench reps than any RB has ever done... and then he didn't show.
He looks overdeveloped now and a candidate for a muscle pull a week, as if there weren't enough injury concerns around him.
Bottom line: He's off my board.

Never liked Trent as I feel he is too slow to be successful. We need an Adrian Peterson type, and he is not it. Off my list as well.

quinn to the cheifs. one handoff to hillis from him would be epic
It is interesting. I always thought Quinn was a savage pick and not a Crennell guy. So, Im surprised to see him go to KC and RAC. But I cant hate on them. I wish them well,except when they play the Browns. Anyone else thinks with the way KC might be a much much better team this year and could be a dark horse? Eric Winston is a huge pickup.
