  • The NFL Network says Forty-Niners want a second round pick for Kaepernick. No way the Browns should consider!

    Don't we need all our picks? Here is Walter Football's Mock Draft For Browns thru 5 rounds

    #2 Carson Wentz

    #32 Derrick Henry

    #65 Le Raven Clark OT Texas Tech

    #96 Tajae Sharp WR U MASS

    #129 Kentrell Brothers ILB Miss S

    In my opinion it would be counter productive to give up a second round pick when we don't have a "foundation" or nucleus anymore

  • Look what teams are paying for quarterbacks! Sam Bradford signed a deal for 36 million and Philly brought in Chase Daniels to compete! This is crazy money for guys who've done nothing! Stick with Josh McCown and draft Wentz, Michael Thomas, Noah Spence

    And a running back.

    They're not willing to resign their only good players tells me they're sticking to the draft this year and 2017 with the compensory picks.

    Wentz or Goff; Develop a QB while McCown passes to Brian Hartline

    One of these days we will agree on something.
  • Well we have no play book. We can continue to watch Josh pat the pumpkin in pocket till Drago appears? We can go Papa Smurf Fitzpatrick with smarts of our Harvard office? We can go RG3 with a bad axle on his wheels? Or this guy Kap. What you gonna do when the browns ain't QB U.. Tick....Tock

    Time is a tickin'. It looks like Hue and co. are staying with draft plans. With all the qb's you mentioned maybe the best thing to do right now is nothing. McCown played well last year.
  • Hoorta that's a good article & Truth McCown played as not any of us expected. Two problems, When John Elway got himself no option at QB & Hue Jackson can't count his future on Josh. I would consider their knowledge on Kap over a guy at MMQB/si. Your rookie QB drafted probably does not play, neither are ready imo. Kap obviously is not the same player he was but Elway & Jackson have or know a system that may get him back. Kaps QB coach this season was Steve Logan, he coached with Tomasula in World league something Fire. Listened to Logan's radio show out of Raleigh, NC for 3 years, Logan knows blues music & a good bottle of wine but still living off fame of coaching Matt Ryan at BC. Josh is a great locker room guy & mentor & Kap to me, hides in his own little world. Kap as a mentor, advantage McCown. Our #2 pick could very well flip to #7 9'ers & get very interesting if they get Goff or Wentz.. JM pack your bags anyhow 😛

    Gumby, that is a lucid, in depth analysis... almost makes me want to consider Kaep as an option.... almost... 😉

    Certainly has the prototypical size of a 3rd down back...

    Here's a sentiment not many have shared recently: Colin Kaepernick wants to play in Cleveland. Respects Hue Jackson. Browns-Niners talking.

    At least he wants to be in Cleveland.......

    At least we have a player who wants to be here ....lol

    LOL 😁 Well at least this 3rd down back, unlike most of the rest, can actually block for the QB if the play calls for it.

    Besides, haven't you been wanting a FB? Just another option for use of this multipurpose guy if it's needed.

    PS-I know the Browns have far greater needs, but I like showing what some smart team is going to get. Got to tout my favorite pick in the draft. I plan to record all his games on The Ticket next year just so I can keep up with what he does. THe Browns games will provide live entertainment (some might say live comedy) and Henry will provide later in the week fun to see if he develops like I think he will.

    They are trying to punk Denver into putting up more to get Kaep. Has anyone within the Browns org actually said a peep about this?

    This, anything, nothing. Probably better than having someone running their mouth.

    That being said, come 4pm on wednesday there was an article about 'who will be in the backfield' or some such. Endless comments, all related to 'opponent edge rushers mainly'

  • Sounds like the rumors have some teeth. I am waiting for Vesna to call him Colin Tarkenton.

    Just for the laughs, I hope the Browns trade for Kaep and an offensive lineman.

    No reason to take a not elite HB that high

  • I think it is a good idea to get Kaep. I live in Reno and watched him play at UNR, and with the Niners. What hurt him is losing Harbaugh. Hue can fix him. I also think they are going to follow what the Raiders did. Clear all of the money and build from the ground up. I won't be mad with Wentz but he may end up like Couch, not because he isn't a franchise qb but he may get killed. We can't miss at #2 or we set ourselves back years. Go for whoever is a sure thing at #2 and Kaep will be mobile enough while the rebuild goes down.

  • If we are getting Kaep are there any QB's due to come out of the draft next year better than Goff and Wentz ?

    If so Jalen Ramsey or Bosa at 2 would be better and then we take the QB with first overall pick in 2017

  • His contract looks a little cheaper this week than it did last week.
