  • Courtney Brown ahead of Trent for me. Tim Couch has to be close to top 10.

    You can see the article on willie green here haha

  • Courtney Brown deserves some credit seeing how he was #1 overall in an absolutely loaded draft.

    "We are Americans. We don't quit doing something because it's wrong. We just keep doing the wrong thing till it turns out right." Browns maybe the most American Football team ever.

  • Lawyer Tillman...what did he play..2 games?

  • Was reading today about Buccs' Kwon Alexander the 4th rounder who has been very good in bus first year. Checked where he went and we took Mayle with the pick immediately before Alexander. Always seems to be the way it's the pick immediately before!

  • I'm a Bucs fan, and a Browns fan.. The Browns have never drafted a Bo Jackson even when he told you not to. And told you he'd play baseball if you did..

    Lawyer Tillman played well in limited time.. Injuries killed his career.

    Yep...plus, he was a 2nd rounder and a WR that we decided to convert to TE.....

    Not great....but far from the worst......

    Agreed...no Bo Jackson.....THAT would hurt......youch

    We did draft a guy named Ron Brown....wr.....who "I believe" did a similar thing and threatened to go to the olympics(and did, I think).......ultimately, we cut him loose and he ended up playing for the Rams.....

  • Still, Bo was a #1 overall pick that turned to dust.. And thankfully the Browns have nothing in their history that even approaches that level of ignorance.. Then, there's the Jack Thompson fiasco that turned out to give the Bengals the top pick in the 84 draft..

    My point is, Yeah, there are bad #1 picks with all franchises.. And then, there's the Bucs 😵 So quit bitching..

    On the plus side, the Bucs DO own a Lombardi.... And as God as my witness, I sincerely hope to see the Browns own a Lombardi as well in my lifetime..

    We picked Tom Skladany who never played a down for us.

    Ron Brown, too.

    IMO, Junkin was the worst.

    Skladany....what a chump......who ever heard of a prima-donna punter?

    He seems to be the consensus pick.....

    Yep....I always liked Couch and think, of all our QBs, he's the one who got the rawest deal.....

    I think a lot of people would be surprised to hear he still finished as the Browns 5th all time QB in production...

    I'm not sure i'd call picks like Brady, Brown, Winbley....as "awful" cause they were all highly touted and showed in college what everyone thought would be NFL caliber skillsets. The bad picks imo are the ones like Gilbert where we took a flyer and failed horribly.

    a 'flyer' on Gilbert? dude, do you watch anything in the off-season besides 'housewives of atlanta'? dude was THE consensus #1 at his position. so not only did farmer fuck up with his assesment on the kid but every other pre-draft talking head did as well. problem is when you scout these guys there's no way to measure their heart. vertical, speed etc. etc. not heart though and i'm sure everyone talks the same bullshit in their interviews with every team, just like you had to talk shit to get your job flippin burgers at burger hut.

    "i swear i'll show up early and be the best fry boy you've ever had sir!"

  • I thought Dennard was the "consensus" #1 with Gilbert #2 and a rising Fuller #3.

    All three were projected for the first round followed by Verrett and Roby with their late-1/early-2 projections.

    Yep...Dennard-Fuller-Gilbert.....ranked 1-2-3....by everyone.....but they all had different ideas on which was best...

    Gilbert was the biggest and the fastest of the 3....and the Browns are on record saying they liked his length and thought he was the best for their style of play.....

    Ironically, Verrett and Roby have outperformed all 3.......and amazingly, the highest rated CB from this class is....

    Kwaun Williams.....

    watched the combine live the day of the cbs and safeties etc. mike mayock (who i have more faith in than any draft nerd) was on set in nfl network with joe haden. mayock loves joe haden and scouted him when he came out of florida as a #1. mayock said gilbert in his opinion was the best and asked haden who he'd like to be the #2 opposite him in the brown's future and he said gilbert. so i don't know anything outside of that cuz after watching and hearing that i was sold.
