    I think coaching will milk out at least as many wins as this past season with those guys.

    3-13 isnt a lofty goal.

  • I had hope that Robertson could be our captain till we drafted the new core of interior lb'ers. This sucks. I mean think about it, we can't even retain Craig Robertson. Let that sink in.

    I'm guessing the scale starts at 15?

  • again? Robertson is a Texas kid, warm weather kid, who

    played college football in Texas.

    Talking to the Rams...who are now going to play in California.

    a trend? (oh, Bademosi played at Stanford.....in California...just sayin) 🙂

  • Just checking, this coming season the team will be made up of guys who couldn't start last year on a 3 and 13 team? Alrighty then

    That's just scary...let THAT sink in.
  • How is this even worth a thread? Robertson didn't have any impact against the run. This undrafted FA is the definition of replacement-level, and if someone else wants to pay him money, good for him.

  • Right....haven't we been "trying" to replace him for years now?.....isnt that why we drafted Kirksey?.....

    Everyone wants to get better, but then gets pissed when we try to replace these average to below average players.....I dont get it....

    Time to bring in fresh bodies and try to improve....and really.....does it actually matter if we lose an extra game by doing it?.....is 3-13 somehow more tolerable than 2-14?......its time to retool this team both physically and mentally

  • Put on Ohio State's Pro day and chill

    Why do see that as a problem when its a wonderful opportunity for young.........ah fuck it i cant polish that turd. Anyone else wanna give it a go?

    Draft all OSU! Bosa #2, Thomas #32 Tyvus Powell #65, Cardale in like round 4/ WTF...we could do a lot worse.

  • Don't forget Decker and Elflein for OL depth, Perry as a competent ILB in both run and pass [immediately better than Robinson], Tyvis Powell for slot duties, and Braxton Miller just because.

  • Can we draft their whole front 7?

    Again, we could do a lot worse.

    Lets put it this way: Jimmy Haslam wanted to bring the Browns to Columbus for training camp.

    Instead.....lets bring Columbus to the Browns....by drafting OSU players.

    I think he was our best run defender last year. The only time i saw our ilb'ers make pro quality reads on the ball and make first contact on the offensive side of los.... It was robertson. The other guys made some plays, im not saying robertson was head and shoulders above them.....but he also wasnt a starter. I would have liked to see him as the d cpt next yearband see hownthe run d was impacted

    Yes, if those 3 wins are home games vs Pitt, Balt, & Cincy 🙂

    True Steve but when you do go 3-13 - how many guys are you already starting that shouldn't be starting anyway?

    In 2014 we started off 6-4 with a bunch of WRs that didn't start on our 2013 team that only finished 4-12. Not only that, but 2014 marked the first year Brian Hoyer won a starting QB job in training camp at age 29. Meanwhile, the Gary Barnidge we got from Carolina was a part timer at most here when we had this hope Cameron could keep playing like a Pro Bowl TE. Even though they played 2 different versions of TE - Barnidge became a more complete TE capable of either role than Cameron gave us. The Rams were 5-11 in 1998 and won the Superbowl in 1999 with the following new faces in the lineup: rookie WR Torry Holt, Marshall Faulk and former grocery bag specialist Kurt Warner filling in for injured/well paid FA Trent Green. They paid the BIG QB contract for Green but the true color of money came from Kurt Warner. They also made big mistakes betting on rewiring the character of Lawrence Phillips.

    It may seem like Risky Business but like the quote in the movie said "sometimes you just gotta say what the fuck."

  • Oh I hear you Tommy, and I don't disagree, and maybe all of these guys we let walk out the door are bums. Maybe the two guys we picked up for similar money are Diamonds in the Rough.

    Could be the team's that plunder our players for the last couple years are fools and overpaying for bad talent in which case I would expect them all to be 3 and 13 as well but...

    And of course I don't want guys who would play somewhere else for less money. And of course we can probably replace anybody.

    And looking on the bright side it's probably harder to go 3 and 13 than it is 5 + 11 just thanks to the luck of the draw.

    Then again flip a coin, turns up heads 50 times in a row the odds are still 50/50 on the 51st flip.
