Brian Hartline to visit Browns on Tues
-
Agreed Cobb would be an excellent pick up but he wil be looking for a SB contender i think. Dont see him being thrilled coming to cleveland were we cant figure out who our Qb will be from one season to the next. And that is the biggest reason we are settleing for these smaller quick rather than fast receivers. and these good route runners who are where they are suppose to be when they are suppose to be there type receivers. Qbs on our roster arent boasting the strongest arms either.
parker is 6-2
White is 6-3
beckum with off field baggage is 6-5
Stong from Ari. is 6-3.
our Big receiver would be our draft pick. my only point to Shorts is he is a veteran who can help the rookie get going.

Except that Shorts is just a slightly taller, slightly slower version of both Hawkins and Gabriel. He's not a #1 WR, he's not a slot receiver, he is solely a #2, which is what we don't need.
Our roster is full of sub 6'0", shifty receivers. We need a tall red zone threat, not just another undersized, mediocre guy. We need someone to contest 50/50 balls. Right now, the fade is not in our arsenal. We need someone to target in the red zone. Shorts isn't that guy.
I like Shorts, just as I like Garcon. I like all Mt. Union guys. But he's just not needed. His skillset is one that two of our receivers already possess.
Really 6"0.. Lafell is 6:2 Hartline is 6'2 and the rest of the Patriots receivers outside Gronk are barely 6ft. and there are not the fastest receiver group in the NFL either.The top 10 receivers from 2014 season only 4 are over 6ft. Johnson, Bryant, Jones, and Nelson. the rest at 6ft or shorter.
Point is tall reveivers are beginning to not be so improtant. and we need after the catch shifty guys in Cleveland weather.
The top 10 receivers from 2014 season only 4 are over 6ft.
how'd evans do in tampa bay?

i mean as a tall guy just winning the jump ball contest i thought he was the best rookie WR taken last year.
i mean i'm no football genius but i ain't blind either.

The pound needs to sing this when he gets a TD if we sign him

Why the comparisons to NE and their WRs? We don't have anyone close to Gronk or anyone close to Brady
-
I'd be cool with Hartline or Shorts. I see no reason to take Ginn though
-
I think he was measured at just over 6'4" at the combine.
yes i think he's the second tallest rated top 10 WR/TE in the draft .

I think the guy is going to fall down on draft boards after his combine. He doesn't want to play TE because he refuses to block and he's not an option as an outside WR.
The only thing he's got going for him is that he can jump. Other than that, speed is poor and hands are inconsistent.

Just about as good as McCown did.
Really? I hope you're being sarcastic. If not you sound stupid.

Give him a break, he had McCown throwing him the ball......oh waitDid Evans win more games?

i think Funchess is being projected as a 2nd round TE pass catching type by some experts mocks. Kiper has him rated a a Julius Thomas type.

Josh Gordon had Brandon Weeden and Jason Campbell throwing the ball to him.

I think he;s dropping like a rock(as predicted, btw)......
Honestly dont want Funchess at all, but if they take him, I pray it's not in the second round.......

Makes sense... Hartline would be a nice fit there given recent Texan developments.
