    I say me move Skrine to FS kinda like the Cards tried out witht he Honey Badger. Skrine is fast as hell and can stick some guys. It most likley wil not happen, just a thought. I just seen the cromarti for the jets was released, he would be a solid #2 db.

      True. But we are negotiating with Robertson, and Tank Carder can play some. There will be two new big names at WR and two new big names at ILB ... I think you can hit on ILBs later in the draft though generally.

        yeah but they both suck. DQ was doing both their jobs last year, well..Robertson that is. Did Carder ever get on the field aside from special teams? Isn't that the guy who sang ain't no faggot gonna make it to heaven on his banjo in the woods?

          The thing is though we have nobody at the position, so we can't sit back and hope we hit on somebody later in the draft. We have to go get him. WR is considered one of the deepest position's in this draft, it would be wiser to hope you can land one of them later in the draft. Considering we have one of the best receivers in the NFL already.

          I'm hoping we get Shazier with the 2nd or 3rd pick....4.36 40 at 240lbs and the best vertical jump of any position at the combine...He's explosive and flies to the ball... somebody that can actually cover a RB on 3rd and 25

                see that states it all. if hoyer can do it. well let's give a try before we bust on a #4 pick of some over-hyped QBs.

                why not fill all the other holes and then hand the reigns over to a rookie that is a 'sure thing'?

                  it is all anopinion thing now, but I feel that if they go with hoyer we are looking at 6-10.

                  I think manziel at 4 best WR avail at 26 and fill all these other postions with the rest o da picks and I feel like they are trying to win now.

                  I may be wrong, but I think hes the best available QB to Cleveland as of now,and its a QB league

                  and besides if it doesn't work we get another top five pick next year!!! we get that with hoyer either way

                      wha wha what?

                      so you're saying pick a QB or stick with hoyer. so when the dice roll you have equal money on red and black?

                        That was my thoughts..... there might be other guys that are better but I love the kid from Michigan St. Max Bullough, he just screams beast to me, put him in the middle and let him fuck some bitches up!!

                        Some others have mentioned Shazier, I'd be cool with him also.

                        !!!!hopefully i'll be alive when it happens!!!!

                          Yea I think you either stick with hoyer or pick a QB.because if you pick a QB then hoyer works out then you got an unproven QB at 4TH when you coulda had watkins

                              At this very moment in order from greatest to least:

                              Interior OL-we ain't doing shit until we patch up the interior of our o-line. Were not running between the tackles and the middle of the line is going to continue to blow up in our QBs face. This is our single greatest need aside from QB. Without a good group of competent beast men to man the trenches, the Browns are going no where.

                              ILB-now that DQ is gone we have a major hole here. We had a need there even with DQ (Robertson is not the answer). We need to sign a veteran tank (spikes please, he is young and a monster against the run, something we need help with) and draft a speedy sideline to sideline type athlete (shazier).

                              RB-I put RB this high because without a decent run game were going no where in the AFC North. As stated above, if we fix our number one need at the interior of the o-line then this need becomes easy to fill with a couple bodies. Personally I like Hyde (but im a OSU homer) and a couple others (Storm Johnson, Seastrunk).

                              CB-we absolutely need another solid guy opposite Haden and BS is not it. Skrine needs to be designated as a true slot CB. I say we either pick up a mid tier guy from FA or draft a guy in the bottom first or second (prefer drafting a guy, Haden can mold them into a badass then). I like Dennard and Jean-Baptiste.

                              WR(slot and no.2): at this point we have no legitimate no.2 and slot receivers. In order to maximize Gordon's production we need to fix this. I would like to pickup a slot in FA and draft our No.2 (I love Evans, would be cool with Watkins/Benjamin/Beckham Jr.).

                              Safety(if we lose ward): I really don't get you guys claiming we have such a huge need at free safety. Gipson did not play bad whatsoever, he's a slightly above league average FS who gets the job done. We have much bigger needs provided we keep ward. If we lose him however I agree we will need to out the roof back on our defense because without it were going to get burned over and over like we used to 3+ years ago (god that was horrible).

                              Other thoughts: regardless of your feelings about the quarterbacks in this draft, Qb is undeniably our single greatest need and our perpetual Achilles heel. One way or another we need to address this and give ourselves a good insurance policy at the position. This off-season is truely the greatest opportunity we have had in a long time to go from bottom of the barrel to true contenders. We have the appropriate building blocks and solid young talent and one of the best defensive line rotations in the NFL. If we can shore up our weaknesses and have some great coaching the future is bright. Lets just temper our expectations, take off our rose colored glasses, and prepare for some growing pains ahead.

                                spend lots of money trying to sign S Byrd from Buffalo, get OG Schwartz (brother of our right tackle). use all other money to extend contracts for all our good players next year (haden, mack, cameron, sheard, gordon.....etc), draft smartly and don't screw up, WR, LB and QB with first 3 picks any order.

                                also.............. aren't you my best friend????

                                  Hahaha I may just be. I'm just a roughneck who believes in common sense and logical reasoning. Check your news sites gents the free agency flurry has officially began for the browns. Word is were getting around that were signing donte 'hitner" as well as pursuing 4 others (Byrd and Tate supposedly).
