First Free Agency:

CUT

Travis Benjamin WR Rodney Smith WR Jim Dray TE Paul McQuistan T Phil Bates WR Vinston Painter T

Benjamin is just not the same and likely wont be. There have to be better options. I would also cut Barnridge TE based on my draft

SIGNED PLAYERS

Name / Position / Cap Hit - Brian Hoyer QB 3,750,000 Jeremy Maclin WR 7,350,000 Miles Austin WR 1,000,000 Jermaine Gresham TE 4,500,000 Ndamukong Suh DT 8,800,000 David Harris ILB 4,900,000 Buster Skrine CB 1,800,000

Yep paid a shitload for Suh and Harris, probably overpaid for Maclin but they are top notch adds, Tashaun was not listed but I would tag him. I also believe Gresham is an upgrade over Cameron. Would have signed Julius Thomas if available.

Cap Space Remaining: 51,744,743 - Franchise tag cap hit of Tashaun Gibson, still a pretty hefty stash of cash

My 2015 Draft - note that if trades had been allowed I would have taken a 3 for Manziel , I will also add that if that was the case I may have taken OT in the 3rd as I really debated on Collins at 19.

I had to take another problem child in G-B but damn he is so f'n talented. Besides the Browns would not be the Browns without a problem child or 3.

And God forgive me I actually took a GD Longhorn because the bastard can make that 2 yards when we really need it. He ain't no flea and loves contact head-on He'll play like a Brown.

Desmukes is a great center and we needed a backup plan if Mack isn't 100%.

Something on Flowers in case you never heard of him much.

Just for fun I did a second try and the crab leg man was still available. So just for the Browns I took Famous Jameis Winston as our next ex-Browns QB. LOL!

Well one thing I have learned from this is that we are going to have to address at least one of these glaring needs through free agency. DT, OT, ILB and WR. I find it impossible to get really great players for all 4 positions using this draft model multiple times. There is always one of the 4 that just does not measure up to what we need; Josh threw a huge monkey wrench into all of this. Better now than after the draft I guess.

The very best I could do was DT Danny Shelton, OT La'el Collins, ILB Denzel Perryman and WR Devin Smith (or Tyler Locket who can double as a ko and punt returner and was also still available at that pick). In real life I do not think I could have gotten those first 3 as a package. WR has a few decent players left as our 4th pick in the 3rd rd. I'd go for that position last because we need 2 run stoppers and a really quality OT, none of which will be available by then.

Just did some film on this guy as I work my way through the O-line prospects. Very promising. I look forward to seeing him at Combine.

But three OTs, Ag???

Throw shit at a wall and something is bound to stick. All the ILB's worth a damn were gone.

And Crowder is much like Locket-very underappreciated for what he brings to the table. He'd be a steal in the 5th. He's another who did everything for his team.

And I get to sign my undrafted Aggie Trey Williams. LOL!

did you use the simulator?

i don't think scherff will be there at 19. i think he'll prob be the first OL off the board.

Yeah. He definitely won't be there at 19, but had to take him since he was still on the board for some reason.

Still believe with Mack back only need plug in on line or upgrade Schwartz. Alternate DT and OLB(Mingo) at Pick 12 And 19 (biggest need) At 12 looks like Shelton and B. McKinney gone but OLB Fowler and DT Goldman both there (Fowler higher rate). At 19 go opposite position of 12 and OLB V. Beasley, DT M. Brown or ILB Perryman is there. At 43 (hate Cam Erving is gone) but OT Ogbuehi and QB Hundley is there. At 77 stock will be up on WR Tyler Lockett passing on LB DePriest and OL Tomlinson. At picks 108 and 112 it's best player available not filled needs QB,TE and OL, (No Hundley at 77) BPAvailable(at 108 and 112) include QB's Grayson, Mannion.TE Heuerman and OL Havenstein (J Thomas brother from another mother at Wisconsin). Still WR's on the board that fit's us...

Unsympathetic

First Pick a bit more fun added with trade potential.

Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 12: Andrus Peat, OT, Stanford (A)
Round 1 Pick 19: Eddie Goldman, DT, Florida State (
Round 2 Pick 11: Benardrick McKinney, ILB, Mississippi State (A)

Round 4 Pick 16: Breshad Perriman, WR, UCF (A)

Round 6 Pick 13: Adam Shead, OG, Oklahoma (B-)
Round 6 Pick 26: Darius Philon, DT, Arkansas (F)
Round 7 Pick 12: Antwan Goodley, WR, Baylor (C-)

Computer didn't like my reach on Philon out of Arky-he would be one for the developmental PS.

And it stole Tyler Lockett out of Kan and Crowder out of Duke from me, each about a pick or two above me. Next time I trade for 'em.

Mudfly

yep, liked the first pick better....and, being the evil minded person that I am, I took a trade down....why not....

That sim was the first I'd heard of him actually. Looks to have potential as a 3-4 DE.
