I love that so many of you all have no clue what a freaking gift you were just handed.
Stengthen the line, grab another WR threat and it won't matter how bad your D is, you'll outscore anyone.
Go ahead and commission that statue.

Oh man, the downside of JF. Oh well, I'll have to get used to it.

LOL, so many posts. so little time. I've yet to drink enough to get over the fact that JF is a Cleveland Brown. I'm going to have to bust my co-worker's chops today (Eagles fan) for trading us the pick.
He's our guy now. Let him grow under Hoyer and save the negativity until it's earned.
Seriously, that's how I really feel.
At 22 im cool with that
I said I was OK with JF @ #26- I may have to rethink that.

HAHAHAHA genius, NO ONE, AND I MEAN NO ONE had the Browns taking a corner with their first pick- even though it was a pretty big area of need.
jb is a media circus freak,
Well hell's bells, welcome to the party- you're a day late and a dollar short.
Johnny at 22 eh?
Brady Quinn and Brandon Weeden were both drafted at 22 by the Browns.
Hey, gotta stick with what works for ya.lol
What sucks is when I checked out the Bengals and Steelers boards..they were laughing at Cleveland again.As well they should. JF should wear #22, maybe he can break the curse.
C'mon guys, Johnny is a Brown now. We got him at 22, not 4. Get on board with the kid. Hoyer is the starter unless he gets hurt and Johnny comes in and shines. It's different than had we taken him at 4. I resist being a kool aid drinker but Farmer got us a premier CB, a first and a fourth next year, we gave up what an extra third and a fifth? We signed a ton of free agents and really don't need ten draft picks this year. I am impressed thus far. WR or OG at 35 tomorrow
We gave up Watkins and Evans. That's not win now. And I'm not happy that we gave up a 5th rounder to move up one spot- unless you want to posit the Lions were going to jump ahead of us to take a CB.
lol...
As for the 22nd pick thing... It's just a number. Farmer wanted him and believed he had to move in front of KC at 23 to bag him. Not worth a higher pick to move to 21 just to avoid a number.It's as cursed as the Heisman jinx Tour- you'll see.
Did I hear it correctly a drunk homeless guy sitting on the streets of Cleveland made the JF pick. Wonder how much Haselms hands were on this pick
I am now a drunk homeless guy- I want to make the next pick Jimmy if you over ruled Farmer- Fuck You.

Go twerp go. Get ready for wall to wall blanket ESPN coverage training camp. RGIII you ain't seen nothing.
mike H showing his face right now.....
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
How 'bout that CB, Mike? At this point, I will (sort of) keep my opinions for JF in Cleveland private. Rotie tootie, I see another Flutie. ESPN was giving the Browns blow jobs for trading up to take Brady Quinn- I tend to take the longer view. Just because we took the media darling doesn't mean jack shit until the guy wins a Super Bowl or two.

We are Johnny Football.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

It was a really classy move for Vince Young to tell Haslam to take Manziel.

Johnny Football....the guy we needed....pixie, schmixie.....lol.....you aren't going to give him a chance. Your post proves that. You are against the pick and will be all over it the first time a pass falls to the ground.
Long live Johny Football

But the circus might be good for the local economy... so there's that...
What it will do if Hoyer keeps JM sitting for a full year is anybody's guess... but it should involve spending money.

Hi Guys,
New member here from San Antonio and brand new Cleveland Browns Fan. I got a tear in my eye when the TV showed those Brown fans chanting for Johnny before the pick and then the utter joy and excitement of the fans when the pick was announced.
I saw Johnny play in HS several times and watched him shread some very good 5A Texas HS football teams. Critics said he would never do that in college, and he went on to do the same thing against SEC defenses. I've never seen a player with such natural football instincts and that kind of physical talent.
He is a fierce competitor, a leader and a never say die mentality. He is 1000% business in the locker room, on the practice field and on the playing field. I think that he will thrive under a bright, innovative, open minded OC in Shanahan. He has some weakness that need to be addressed but what young players don't? He has matured a lot since some of his foolish actions in his Freshman year.
So much has been written and said about him and a lot of it false or misleading. Like not going through his progressions, running too soon, or what JFF stands for.. Nothing said about the new OC and QB coach he had last year which slowed down his development.
You guys got a great young talent. If he stays healthy, he will light it up. So, please feel free to ask any questions about Johnny from someone that has watched every college game and saw him in HS.
My broker from Dayton is sending me a Manziel Browns jersey and me and a buddy are going to join the local Browns fan club. Can't wait for the opening kickoff!!!

I knew he would end up being a Brown.
-
I knew we would end up with JF. Thought he would go higher, but I'm glad we got him.
-
I wanted him to go to a team with a good innovative coach in a good football city. Number 1 on my list were the Saints and Sean Payton. Chip Kelly at Philly would have been good for Johnny. Kyle Shanahan I think will be very good for Johnny and Cleveland is a great football town. I'm thrilled he didn't go to Jacksonville, Houston would not have worked with their new coach O'Brien. Dallas would have ruined him like they ruined Romo. I'm excited.

Worst pick ever, wasted pick I hope he breaks his legs fuck the browns I'm done!

Your girlfriend is happy.

He has the "it" factor. He just does. He was born for this. This is his destiny. He is overwhelmingly entertaining. He has all the tools. He knows when to run and when not to, don't worry about that. Don't get caught up in what the NFL wants you to think is a prerequisite to being a great QB, such as height. Johnny Football is the complete package.
Congratulations on drafting the biggest steal in NFL history.

That is the big issue... staying healthy. To do so he has to reign in some of that fierce competitiveness, which ran him into some troubling dings his Sophomore season. Which raises the issue of how much can he reign in that which is at his core? (or Corps, if you're an Ag like my daughter.)
Two more points...
- Dayton has a lot of Bengal fans so be sure the jersey is the right color.
- Hopefully JM will never see the field on opening day.
Welcome to the board...

I'm giving him as much chance as say- Ben Gay, remember him? Or Brady Quinn- I gave him zero chance, turns out I was right, Willie Green, the dumb ass KWII trade up, and a bunch of other mega busts the Browns have drafted over the years. #22 is cursed for the Browns, as well as the Heisman jinx. Take that FWIW as superstition, or just a POV. LOL, I won't have to call for the Tar & Feather brigade to run JF out of town on a rail- it will be the fickle Cleveland fans that wanted this bozo in the first place.
I've only been seriously wrong a couple of times, and I damn well admit it when I'm wrong, unlike some other posters. I blew the Couch and Kam Wimbley picks.How would Adrian Peterson or LaDanian Tomlinson have looked playing for the Browns?
+ I'm not creaming my pants over day #1 of the draft- JF is one good ACL away from NFL defenses taking away his greatest weapon- his mobility- and it will happen 'Peen, call me a party pooper if you must- it's gong to happen, sooner or later- and I can hear the wailing already. You won't find my shoulder to cry on.
So no you're right 'Peen, I don't particularly like Manziel with his (to date) shitty attitude Put up the ESPN tents outside the Browns complex in Berea- the Circus is coming to town- whoopee- I call it a major distraction.

Helluva first post... Where does one go after such a debute?
Personally I would have at least waited until he had been fitted for his uniform, if not named starter.
But whatever... welcome to the Board...

You're about to learn who the real Johnny Manziel is, not the Johnny Football that ESPN has created. Johnny is going to do more for your city than you could ever imagine. He'll spend more time at children's hospitals, more time at charity events, give more time to fans than you could ever imagine. The fact is he did all those things in college, but you never heard about them because they didn't fit the narrative that ESPN wanted to create. You're going to be blown away Cleveland, will he go out and have a good time once ina while? Sure, what 20 something wouldn't, but you'll find that he'll also be the hardest working team member, while also being the most giving of his time to worthy causes.
seriously, you were just handed a gift. Appreciate it.

What's shitty about his attitude? Seriously give one legit example of a shitty attitude he's displayed.
