So we gave up the chance to draft Wentz, Zeke, Ramsey, etc
-
And it begins... the bitching from some of you is crazy. We got a great receiver. And a shit load of picks. Nothing is enough for you guys. We should of just had time run out. Haha.

to have Coleman?
Please put down the keyboard, eat the spaghetti O's your mother heated up for you and brought down to the basement. He's not benjamin, he's more like Antonio Brown and you obviously forgot about the extra picks that we got that will help this team. But wallow in your Tidy Whiteys all alone with all that knowledge you seem to think you have as a NFL GM. This team needs draft picks to build on, not just 1 pick. Nuff Said.

Well, we now have a shit ton of picks- remains to be seen how the analytics guys use them. If they send us to the FARM- they'll be unemployed soon enough.
When Zeke and Bosa went off the board- I was done with #8.

Well I refuse to slate Coleman because he has yet to wear the jersey and play for us...... maybe we can comment on him next January .....until then he gets my support.......

So the Browns traded their #2 Overall and gained:
Corey Coleman
#76 overall 2016
#77 overall 2016
#100 overall 2016
The Eagles' First Round Pick 2017
The Titans' Second Round Pick 2017
The Eagles' Second Round Pick 2018
Or an entire extra draft worth of picks over the next three seasons.
That seems like a pretty good haul to me.

Today was AMAZING! If they decided to take Coleman at #2 overall, being the #1 WR in the draft, I would have been okay with it. But what this Front Office did was INCREDIBLE! KEEP THIS SHIT UP!
Yo, what I found kinda cool is Paul DePodesta and Sashi Brown's names combined equal... Paul Brown. Curse Lifted. Boom!
-
Oh no...

We could have done a lot worse. Coleman is a good player that actually fits what we need in Hue's offense and obviously Hue liked him. We did not pick any QB in the first round because they had already decided they would not start a rookie QB this year and round one is for starters. There were some other options on defense I would have liked too but Coleman is OK by me.

I guess there will be a dozen of the same thread but for what it's worth I guess I'm not miserable. I've always been an advocate of a strong team making an average Quarterback look good. I have not been a wide receiver bandwagoneer. I think like offensive lineman if you draft one in the first round he should be a special talent. It doesn't seem to me like this guy special nor was he at the top of anybody's list of receivers. Well except sushi. But he doesn't seem like a punk or anything so... I get a negative vibe about the Personnel decisions so far but I suppose if you have more cards you have more chances of turning over an ace.
My problem with Personnel decisions is that we threw away some serviceable players to save a paltry sum. We didn't have to replace Benjamin or Mitch and now we'll had to waste resources on those positions that might have been spent on difference makers.
So I hope Goff and Wentz are worse than we expected RG3 is a helluva lot better than I expect.

With you most of the way, but to be fair I have seen Coleman at the top of more than a few WR lists... especially since the Combine. But my question is: is he a #1 WR? Not seeing that...
Losing Mitch has over complicated this draft, but in the end I don't think he wanted to be here.

Of course that's possible, that's the feeling I got about Mack all along. But Mitch? It just seemed to me that as a free agent it wasn't an outrageous move to test the waters.
And In fairness for that second pick we could have only gotten one of the players I wanted.

Knowing that we have an analytics driven front office and after reading, over the past week, what pro football focus had to say about this guy, not to mention the analytics comparison done on WR from Dawgs by Nature, I am more than happy with this pick. A young, fast, productive WR who has shown gradual production all 3 years in school. Most productive WR in collage football last year. 5'10 but closer to 200 pounds. People keep comparing him to Travis. Travis was more like 5'9 175 at best. Guy is bigger, stronger, and just as fast. We can grab a big body in round 3-4 to help fill out the WR group.

I can't believe some of you guys aren't over the moon about these trade downs. Coleman was for a lot of people that best receiver in the draft. No one knows how he will turn out for sure BUT his comparison that I've seen most is Steve Smith (SR). Beyond that though and more importantly the Browns have more holes than just what pick 8 or pick 2 would have rectified and your team is now LOADED with draft picks. Hue seems to know what he's doing. The complainers need to get their heads out of their asses.
AKA SNATCH98 or Rorbotron. The boards glorious admins decided to get cute and change my name to "homotron" Classy group of people. (Lost a bet with Columbus king and got banned for a month) -

We're keeping our ears warm....
But enough about us... How's Steelerland liking their reach for a man coverage CB? Better than PFF I trust...

I've no issue with testing and am on record with thinking Schwartz being worth more than KC paid him... a good bit more. But the way Mitch was planning to use our bumped offer as leverage with KC and his comments about being on a "winner" add up to him wanting out in my book.

I reacted the same way I did when we drafted shazier. I knew of shazier but I never expected him at 15. Now I'm elated that he's on our team as health permitting he has the ability to be one of the best in the nfl. Freak athlete with a nose for the ball. Charlie Casserly and Jeremiah (I don't really care for either) mocked him to us so it's not completely out of left field.We're keeping our ears warm....

Two sport athlete so he couldn't focus solely on football. Elite speed, huge hands and he can catch. He's raw but unlike William Jackson III who I wanted he's only 21. Jackson is about to be 24 and the Steelers made the pick almost immediately. I'm not paid to analyze the draft and the guys that are love the guy. Tremendously high character as well, lost his mom last year and he's taking care of his 19mo old and his two younger brothers. The steelers don't really miss in the first, so I trust in the team. Mike mayock said some people have a third round grade on him, others believe he could be the best in the draft. Most had him going somewhere in the first. I saw him mocked to the cards a bunch.

Speaking of CBs, interesting that Eli Apple went ahead of Vernon Hargreaves?

So much for "Money Ball Analytics" We passed on Taylor Decker, Paxton Lynch, for a shrimp like Benjamin! We could have had Michael Thomas at 32!
