  • I remember discussing with Alo how we liked how the Raiders used their pass rushers.

    Now we'll have their scheme...

  • So this means we might actually get more than 17 sacks. Works for me.

  • i didn't know he had scheme versatility. that's a huge plus. i think we might be able to go to a 3-4 one-gap look some of the time with him and might not be so passive.

    This is the key, to me.

    Dude is aggressive.

    Rob Ryan is Rex Ryan's (Baltimore) Twin Brother...and they studied and shared schemes from all reports. From what I hear...Rob knows pretty much everything there is to know about Rex's schemes...so get ready for a mixture of 3-4 and 4-3...with a PREMIUM on VERSATILITY of his players.

    I would say the stock of Mays and Curry just went through the ceiling for the Browns.

    Excellent point. This would almost make Curry the no-brainer at this point.

    Alo just wet himself. 🙂

  • Anybody related to Buddy Ryan is good by me.

  • I have a good feeling about everything but we know little of that daboll guy really not much on him..but thats not actually a bad thing...

  • i don't know why i didn't put together that both the ryans would have the same scheme versatility. duh.

    in another thread, ballpeen said he thinks that ryan's hire means we're going to go after jenkins in the first since he seems to favor press coverage on the outside.

    however, i hope the scheme versatility that curry brings along with mays' freakish athleticism and the possible availability of nnamdi asomugha in FA and the continued development of wright and mcdonald makes either curry or mays the pick.

    Yeah, if Nnamdi comes to Cleveland through free agency I see no reason to grab Jenkins, and with Ryan coming here I think Nnamdi will sign. But if Nnamdi goes somewhere else, I can't see us passing up on Jenkins; I really like McDonald but I'd rather have him as #2 behind Jenkins, give us two good, young corners.

    Recall that Mangini not only picked Darelle Revis (Pro Bowler) but chose him over two other highly ranked CBs that were also available (Aaron Ross and Michael Griffin). He also picked up Dwight Lowery in the fourth round this year who made significant contributions as a #2 CB this year.

    I think it's safe to say that he knows how to pick a DB.
