The Browns are bringing in USC QB Mark Sanchez.

Surely this means the plan is to unload one of our QB's as with Dorsey gone, we need to look who will back up the starter. All makes sense.

Unfortunately for Dorsey, when the winds prevented his passes from crossing the line of scrimmage, he was (to coin a phrase) "Gone with the Wind." When it gets so bad you're missing Todd Philcox and Paul McDonald, HELP!!!!

The two top picks in this years draft at the moment are Sanchez and Chris Wells..........since we have no offense how can yu lose picking either?
While I think Wells will be productive in the NFL and has 1st round value, I am far from sold on Sanchez. Even his own HC doesn't think he is NFL ready. Dude has one year starting at college. That is far from a recipe for success at the NFL level.

I think it's both smokescreen and purposeful. I think that they really want the teams behind them considering it. On the other hand if McDaniels shoots his draft load over Quinn, you need to know what the QBs in this draft can offer and if you take one THAT high...you definitely want to have done your homework. In Camp Mangini, EVERYTHING has a purpose.

If Sanchez gets to sit for 3 years...... But I doubt that will happen.

I don't like the guy and don't trust him to have his players well being at heart. Maybe I'm all washed up here, but I truly think he was motivated to try and keep Sanchez for his own personal gain. The 2009 USC team lost a lot on Defense and has almost everything back on offense. That offense was going to be something special. Sanchez was going to be a huge part of that team's run at a NC.
They'll be going into Ohio stadium with only 1 game under their belt and with a lot of new defensive personel and now a new Qb in Mustain or Redshirt Soph Aaron Corp.
I think PC took a HUGE hit in losing Sanchez and he knew it.

This is an interesting point that I hadn't even considered. Even if we have no intentions of trading either QB, there is still the possibility that we get an offer which we just could not turn down....and we'd better have all of our bases covered in that situation.
And as far as Pete Carroll(whose last name is a girl's name) goes, much like Oldcrow I don't take the fact that he thought Sanchez should stay to mean anything other than that he's trying to look out for his own (U$C's) best interests - not Sanchez's.

That's a good way to put it. Camp Mangini always has as many bases covered as possible. If you look at the Jets victories last year at New England and Tennessee, you simply don't accomplish that without great attention to detail. For some people, it may seem too much but I personally don't think so.
I agree with you about Pete Carroll. I have stopped listening to college coaches for this very purpose. I was friends with a guy who was an All-American in baseball and what came out of the coach's mouth and reality were two different things. We rely too much on "spin-able" sound bites. I don't trust 'em any further than I can throw 'em.

He has the potential to be one of the great RBs in the NFL and also the potential to be a injury prone Keith Byers who finished his career as a TE.

I believe the plan is to try to keep the value of Anderson up until the draft and also let teams Like San Fran, TB, Jax and even the Jets think that they can't just sit back and hope Sanchez will fall to them.
You don't have a college draft guy as a GM anymore, you have a pro personnel guy who knows what other teams needs are.

We are playing all the realistic angles and bluffs....exactly what we hope they would do.
The odds aren't good we would take Sanchez, but if things twist various ways, it isn't out of the question. It also gets people thinking about moving up.
That high in the draft, it is easier for teams to figure out who teams won't be drafting then who they will. If some team is interested in Sanchez they now have to wonder if we would take the guy.... it gets them thinking they might have to get to our spot or above.

Any way that an organization can sow confusion among the enemy is a good thing . It can bring around things that were unimaginable in the moments leading up to the clock .
This will be the best draft to watch in a long time for me . ManKok will be factors in this draft , I just feel it .

I like Crabtree at #5 better than Sanchez (although I swore off of WRs in the top ten as a fan a long time ago).
Mangini has traded up into the bottom of the first at least twice in the last three years. You can expect trades. I think he'd still like a couple of draft picks recouped post-Savage so I think this year you might see a trade down. Of course, that's always predicated on finding a trade partner.

I agree with you.
Speaking of angles, I wonder what the odds are that the "Eric and George Show" might actually be willing to trade the Browns completely out of the the first and second rounds in exchange for the resulting pocketful of
picks they would have in the 3rd,4th,5th and 6th rounds. Remember how many people have been saying how deep in talent this draft is. I wonder if they fancy themselves to be so sharp that they could handpick the
reasonable $$/high value players in the later rounds. If they do that it would probably be driven by them wanting to plug as many holes as they could as fast as possible. This won't result in any splashy headlines for
Cleveland in the first day of the draft. These two have shown us they couldn't care less about such things.
