  • It would be sweet to get Milliner to play across from Haden- but man, I really want a kickass Linebacker as well...

    LB would be GREAT, but if Milliner is there, the Browns HAVE to take him. There will be no LB @6 that is as good at LB then Milliner is at CB

    Milliner and Hayden would be the BEST cb duo in the league after next year

  • Who the fuck are these guys?

    Seriously!

    Our team is full of nickle, dime guys. Do we really need another?

    With all the talent out there we bring in a 3rd string nickle back. LoL

  • I think I'm the only person that doesn't want Milliner. He's good, but we don't need to waste two top 10 picks on number one corners. Just get a second tier guy after trading down in the first and be fine with it. Haden and one of the second tier guys will be fine enough plus we'd probably get a second by trading down.

    But if we get Grimes, then yessssssssssssssssssssss.

    Hunt Daddy,

    You are NOT the only one. I agree with you. I would be elated to trade down, grab the 2nd or 3rd rated cb with size or Chance Warmack plus TE Tyler Eifert out of ND (IF they are there). I just think we can get more value out of that 6 pick than a CB, whether we keep it or trade it.

    You will not get a second to trade down............ Maybe a 3rd. Having Milliner and Hayden is WAY better then Hayden and some overrated LB.

  • Having Milliner and Haden with no pass rush will have as much effect as Philly having Samuel and Asomugha with no pass rush.

    Having two good corners does nothing if we ask them to cover for 5-7 seconds per play.

    It's dumb logic, and most people who want it just want to be able to say "the Browns have the best cornerback duo in the entire league".

    Personally, I'd rather say "The Browns are in the playoffs this year".

  • Haden is a top 3 corner and Millner is considered a shutdown corner out the gate.

  • why even talk this nonsense, milner won't be there.

    this FO better ink grimes, and take the offer to trade down if it comes across the desk. j. jones sucked eggs at his pro day. that leaves mingo or jordan, neither are worthy of a #6 in my book. trade down get warmack and call it a day.

  • Maybe he will be our new kickoff guy? I wouldn't mind with speed like that.

    Again, ask Philly how having two good corners and no pass rush worked.

    Exactly. How can it be disputed that having a good secondary means nothing without pressure on the QB. When your QB has 8 seconds in the pocket, you WILL get open. I don't care if you have Haden, Milliner, Revis, and Sherman in coverage, you HAVE to get to the QB!!! When you improve your pass rush, you improve your secondary. Period.

  • This draft is FILLED with outstanding edge pass rushers, get one!!!!!

    I agree, but didn't we address this already?

  • Yeah I mean with Sheard,Kruger and Groves you'd think we are set at OLB.. like it or not.

    Jauron ran a vanilla D that didn't blitz much and Horton will have a D aimed to confuse and sending 1-2 guys 50% of the time so we should see more pressure by default.

    I think Haden will have another year like his rookie year 5+ ints.

    Yeah word is he was a solid special teams guy for Atl so he should probably fill the void with Cribb and Ventrone gone.

    Well, it's my opinion but I disagree that we are set at LB. I think we are only set at DL. This Owens character is said to be a good back, so I would argue we are more set at DB right now than LB. With sheard and even Kruger still somewhat ?'s, I think you still have to improve there. I do agree that our scheme will change tremendously (hopefully) and that will help, but I still put LB at a bigger need

    I agree Sheard and Kruger are still unproven at OLB but we just paid Kruger and Sheard as a 2nd rounder going into his third season, so if he's gonna be a backup..I'm not ready to chalk up that loss yet.

    At best, Groves is a rotational player that will split time with Sheard and Kruger at OLB.

    We're still lacking at the ILB spot opposite Jackson. I'm not ready to anoint JMJ the full time starter there, and I doubt the FO is either.

    As of today, our starting LB's consist of: a guy who's never played OLB, a guy who's had barely a full season of starts and has been primarily a pass rush specialist, a second year player with barely any productivity and a guy who's had multiple pectoral injuries in consecutive seasons.

    To me, I think that's a more glaring need than finding a second cornerback.

  • I wouldn't be upset if they took Milliner but I'd rather take Warmack.

    Trent Richardson

    "They told me I better be in the best shape ever. They told me they’re gonna run the shoes off of me. They’re gonna pass me the ball more. … They’re going to do whatever they can … and they want me to be a leader for this team. Voice-wise, they want me to lead the group. They want me to get on that horse, man. They want me to be that stallion that’s gonna take this program to another level. They’re putting all this stress on me and all this faith in me, man, and so I know what my job is. I know what I gotta do."

    So like I say, Warmack may not be the popular or even wisest choice but if Richardson is going to be the player we all hope he is we should do all we can to put the best players around him.
