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.
what about funchess?

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.

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.

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.

Ahh maybe. On the upside they say he plays with a lot of intensity. on the downside they say that's not always the case. on the upside he would probably also be able to play tight end effectively. on the downside he doesn't want to.

That logic is stupid. So Andrew Hawkins is better than or equal to Jimmy Graham since both teams were 7-9. Hahaha

Sorry, I forgot sarcasm is supposed to be put in pink.
Don't let it happen again.

I'm not sure why would need Shorts, especially if we're going to be drafting a wide receiver.
Did you read what quoted, i think i pointed out why you sign Shorts. not all rookie receivers come out Calvin Johnson. Some take time. Shorts would give the Rookie time to transition to the NFL. How many 1st round WR picks are bust cause they dont develope fast enough or ever to the game.
here are the top 10
Sylvester Morris 2000 draft 21st pick KC
Jay Soward 2000 draft 29th pick Jags
David Terrell 2001 draft 8th pick Bears
Freddie Mitchel 2001 draft 25th pick Eagles
Ashlie Lelie 2002 draft 19th pick Broncos
Charlie Johnson 2003 draft 2nd pick Lions
Reggie Williams 2004 draft 9th pick Jags
Troy Wlliamson 2005 draft 7th pick Vikings
Mike Williams 2005 draft 10th pick Lions
Ted Ginn 2007 draft 7th pick Dolphins

Appreciate the research you put into that. 1 minor correction is the Lions drafted Charles Rogers 2nd overall in 2003 from Michigan State. In fairness, to that guy - Joey Harrington hung him out to dry over the middle to the tune of 2 consecutive seasons beginning with broken collarbones for a guy that didn't have much of an injury history in college.
More recently, the first round isn't nearly as bad of an omen for drafting WRs as it used to be. You still have to do your homework and snag someone worthy of round 1 consideration. For example, drafting a slot receiver like Tavon Austin up as high as the Rams took him was a reach regardless of his speed and quickness. Here's some examples of good first round WRs just off the top of my head:
AJ Green
Julio Jones
Calvin Johnson
Demaryius Thomas
Plex Burress
Dez Bryant
Torry Holt
Larry Fitzgerald
Santana Moss
Randy Moss
Terry Glenn
Mike Evans
Odell Beckham Jr
Sammy Watkins
Kelvin Benjamin
Reggie Wayne
Marvin Harrison
Hakeem Nicks
Andre Johnson
Torrey Smith
Depending on when and where there's a run on defensive prospects, we might be able to land an immediate impact at WR somewhere within our first 3 picks. That wouldn't suck especially if we were able to do it in round 2.
