    Mud,

    I can't explain it, but I'm not sure about Gilbert & I'm thinking Manziel will do ok.

    Either way, time will tell. I'm hoping they BOTH do well.

    Donovan McNabb went to 5 NFC championship games and a Super Bowl, 6 time Pro Bowler. If a Browns QB put that type of resume up before I die I'd name my first born son after him.

    really? i'd rather have a son that can speak literate english and not sound like one of the cosby kids.

  • Been watching all the OTA footage I can find and I've yet to see JM smile yet.

    Serious, nose-to-the-grindstone dedication or simply no joy?

    Yep...the early whispers are that he's struggling some(and really pressing)......and that McCown looks like the clear leader so far, as he should be......

  • hey....even if it's 50%, that would mean we still hit on 5 out of 6 picks and that is WAY above average.....

    so, while Id like every player to be great, I do understand that it's not a realistic expectation for any team or GM.....

    Pragmatic = realistic.....in case anyone is wondering......

    Mostly local media who are attending the ota's....

  • Well, I guess so. Gilbert will probably still have a bad attitude.

  • Way to early to make judgements yet. Lets see what happens in July and August. I hope they both light it up.

    Yep, I hope so too....I want them ALL to do well.....not really judging, just noting his current progress and the observations of some who are watching....(it's pretty much what we'll all be doing until August)

    so if he looked great, would it have been ok to say "wow, he looks great"...???....

    or should we just not talk about him till something good happens.....???

    It's kinda nice l think.

    The media is trying. I've heard "he looked great on this pass" to "he got pick 6'd on this pass", but no one seems to really care.

    But the general vibe l'm getting from the fan base is more or less "whatever..."

    Perfect.

    I personally wish we could trade Manziel.. I see him as nothing but a major distraction to this team. And that is weather or not he succeeds or not as a QB.. I think its a distraction this team does not need.. I personally hope he falls flat on his head and we dump him,. I want a pocket passer.. That's where the game is won.... Think about it.. Randall Cunningham, Michael Vick and Donovan 'choke' McNabb have netted 0 championships.

    Donovan McNabb went to 5 NFC championship games and a Super Bowl, 6 time Pro Bowler. If a Browns QB put that type of resume up before I die I'd name my first born son after him.

    Donovan McNabb is overrated.. puhleeze... He choked when it really counted.. He held on to the ball so hard when he threw it in the superbowl, all his passes fell to the ground. No thanks.
