All signs point to a first or second round LB.
I'd love to see us trade back.
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -
94 Carder, Tank LB 6-2 235 24 2 Texas Christian
58 Fort, L.J. LB 6-0 230 23 2 Northern Iowa
54 Groves, Quentin LB 6-3 265 28 6 Auburn
52 Jackson, D'Qwell LB 6-0 240 29 8 Maryland
50 Johnson, James-Michael LB 6-1 240 23 2 Nevada
99 Kruger, Paul LB 6-4 270 27 5 Utah
56 Moten, Adrian LB 6-2 230 24 2 Maryland
53 Robertson, Craig LB 6-1 229 25 2 North Texas
97 Sheard, Jabaal LB 6-2 255 23 3 Pittsburgh
Kruger - JM Johnson - DQ - Sheard
Carder - Fort - Robertson - Groves
I don't know anything about Moten, but there's 8 guys that can play.
Kruger, DQ and Sheard are starting.
I think the key is whether they are happy with the other inside starter coming out off Johnson, Fort, Robertson and Carder.
I think Groves was brought in to rotate behind Kruger and Sheard, I'm not convinced that they are thinking they need to add a pass rusher as much as some are.

Well, supposedly they got their pass rusher in Kruger, with help from Groves perhaps.
I agree that if Sheard can make the transition, and if Kruger is what he is billed to be, and if DQ can play like he did last year and stay away from injuries, and if JMJ can develop like we hope he can develop, and if those backups can be productive (Fort and Robertson were reasonably so last year), then the LB corps can be in decent solid hands...much better than in like forever. But that is a lot of ifs.
That said, and with the apparent quality of the DL, it is definitely the DB that needs attention.
And overall team depth. It would be nice to say that every time we are on the clock that the Browns are just there taking whatever best player they can get, rather than saying that we MUST fill this hole or that hole.
I think, if they can grab that CB and FS they may very well be close to being able to do that.

you mean first or third round (since we don't have 2nd round pick)? if they stay pat at #6 we should get the cb.
first off i doubt if acho would have made the team and i doubt this rb does as well. kelly is looking for players he knows at bargain basement prices.
i don't mind the trade back if we get the second rounder pick an OL 1st round then cb/s second. the browns addressed LB pretty well in FA and i think they need to shore up the secondary in the draft and get us a right side OL.

He's prolly gonna be battling "Silent G" for that third RB spot. Acho was a long shot to make the roster, he wasnt impressive last preseason in the slightest.
Lewis was arguably just as effective as Shady was at Pitt, and maybe even more so. Dion is just smaller.
I think Hardesty has that No.2 RB locked up. Lewis is an intriguing prospect IMO.

Hence the statement "I would love it if we trade back".

Another bonehead move by our bonehead FO..."yaawwwnnn"
Nickers...."There are no old running QB's in the NFL "~Sam Rutigliano~ -
It's boneheaded because we couldn't sling Acho for Shady McCoy. This front office is worthless! Worthless!
How dare you trade a backup to a backup for a player we've never heard of!

Eagles fan here to give you an idea of Dion Lewis.
Basically, you guys potentially got a steal. He is a small slippery runner who is harder to get down than his size suggests. Two years in a row, this guy was a stud in training camp practices and the preseason. Doesn't mean much, but this guy was making everyone miss in practice (insert eagles defense joke here). To me, he seems like a great compliment to Trent. The only reason he wasn't given opportunities was because of the amount of depth the eagles have at RB.
If any of you have game pass on nfl.com, I suggest watching the 2nd of the eagles-redskins games each of the past two seasons. He had some good plays in each and will give you an idea of what he brings to your offense.

Figured, better than a conditional 2014 7th i suppose. Does he bring anything on special teams?

We don't know, he got injured last year and missed the whole season. He was all-around unimpressive up til then.

Wonder if Hardesty has seen his last down in a browns uniform. We just signed oby to a 2 year deal, and still have Jackson on the roster I think. Lewis will be a good returner, but I was really liking what TB was doing back there when he got his chances.

Jackson is gone.

Agreed. Wonder if we're looking to trade Hardesty or Ogbonnaya - chances of us carrying 4 RBs on the roster?
