Is Eric Wright still bouncing around the league?

To answer my own question ... No ... he and Quinnie hit the dead end together this year.

How do I look foolish?
Rookie Adrian Peterson is much better then old Jamal Lewis. Our RB in JT's rookie year.

Joe Thomas has been my favorite Browns' player since BEFORE he was drafted. Among other things, I love the fact that he went fishing with his Dad on draft day.
My one regret is that, on Family Day 2 years ago, I met his Aunt & Uncle, took pictures of them with my Grandkids, but no one got a pic of me with them. She was sporting an orange mohawk, a # 73 jersey, & tons of Browns' gear. She also told me then that Joe wants to retire in Cleveland, loves the Fans, & thinks the fishing is better than in Wisconsin. Funny thing is that the Aunt & Uncle were in NYC for the draft while Joe was fishing! That had me laughing my butt off!
Seven years later, NO ONE with any real football knowledge would EVER regret the pick of Joe Thomas. Not only is he the best O lineman in the game, but a high character teammate & citizen. MISFIRED on that pick????? Please Lord, give me 21 MORE "misfires".

Adrian Peterson and Marshawn Lynch were on the board in that draft, as much as i love JT, we definitely misfired on that pick.

And to think I was going to apologize to you for dissing the importance you placed on Crow's fumble...
HOF? hell, yeah !
I've never been to an induction, but if still above ground, I would seriously consider attending that one...
Please Lord, give me 21 MORE "misfires".
WTF would we do with 22 left tackles?

That was a great read. You know the guy's comfortable in his own skin and is established when he's comfortable enough to open up about loving trees.
And l totally need to add "hey baby, wanna ride my canoe?" In my repertoire of pick-up lines.

Ok, poke fun at an old man (LOL), but can you imagine 22 guys with his work ethic, durability, & attitude? WOW!

IN DORSEY I TRUST -
You guys are crazy.
JT is the best LT in the game. Obviously.
But what exactly has he been protecting?
Branden Weeden?
Chris Ogbonnaya?
All I'm saying is what is a GREAT Oline if we have no one half decent to run behind it?
Nothing

I guess l get where you're coming from. At least between JT and Peterson.
Both will go down as one of the best ever at their position, both probably HOF bound.
But you also know what they say about hindsight being 20/20. You also know what they say about Barbara Walters on 20/20.
JT and Peterson are both Barbara Walters.

Give me Ob & another average RB behind a great Oline & I'll kick the shit out of AP, ML & a shitty Oline given equal QB play.
Flashy RBs & WRs don't win Super Bowls, but great O & D lines & great QB play DO! I don't understand how that can be argued.

Are you being serious? So let me understand your thinking, we draft say "Andrew Luck or
AP" if we have no O line and they get killed, whats the point of having them?

Lynch left? He was traded and JT has so many super bowls too huh Zombo, the truth is Peterson has played behind a line worse then ours and holds rushing records. Would you rather have Peterson or West? Lynch or Crowell?

you sir, have no credibility whatsoever and no leg to stand on.
what a tool.

Joe Thomas is one of our best picks since 99, if not the best. Definitely the best 1st round pick.
CbusKing just thinks the NFL is like madden where the only positions you need are WR, RB, QB.

Poke at every opportunity... and I expect no less in return.
As for 22 Joes... wouldn't be much of a Wednesday practice... would it?

No we didn't.

The best ability- as Teddy Bruschi says is "availability". Peterson isn't. Ooohhhh- rushing records- and no Super Bowls to show for it- even with a qb by the name of Bret Farve. Shit, three of the greatest ever- Jim Brown, Walter Payton, and Barry Sanders have a collective 2 titles between the three of them. My bet is Peterson won't sniff one either- not with Teddy Twatwater at qb, or as long as Aaron Rodgers is playing in Green Bay.
How do I look foolish?
Rookie Adrian Peterson is much better then old Jamal Lewis. Our RB in JT's rookie year.
Browns were (correctly) thinking long term. There isn't a GM in the NFL who would trade Joe Thomas for Peterson NOW straight up.
How many snaps has Peterson missed in his career? How much gas does Peterson have left in the tank? You are either trolling or don't understand football and think that there are a bunch of useless guys who run around while the real heros RBs, WRs, and QBs work their magic. You're probably one of those mongoloids who thinks the Browns are Super Bowl bound if they would've drafted the third best WR with the fourth pick
Peterson is probably on a HOF track if he can stay healthy another couple of years. BUT- RB has become a accessory piece the last couple of years. FWIW, of the top five in rushing currently, only Lynch was taken in the first round.

Well, lousy o-lines get franchise quarterbacks killed- like Tim Couch and David Carr for starters. Good RBs like Kevin Mack look like bozos running up their blockers backs because they can't get any push.
Don't blame Joe because the Browns FO drafted bums like Wee-done and Quinn. Or bring in a washed up stiff like Willis McGahee.

Joe Thomas is the best Brown since the return in 1999. Period.

Toledo joke... lol
