    Texas Tech Head Coach Mike Leach rips Mangini for passing on Crabtree at #5.

    http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4105406

    "Michael Crabtree has been more successful as a receiver than that guy as a coach at this point,"

    Leach said Crabtree isn't a "diva." "My definition of a diva is someone who's loud and self-absorbed," Leach told the Bee. "Michael Crabtree is the furthest thing from loud that I've seen. ... Let's see how all those non-divas do up in Cleveland this year."

    What a jackass. Crabtree fell because it's the NFL draft and the NFL draft is unpredictable. I'd rather have Robiskie and Mack over Crabtree. You then add in Massaquoi and the Texas Tech coach looks like a dumb ass. I never liked Leach, he just solidified my opinion.

    Agreed If we can get the air out of BE's ass and focus on the team picture and winning - our new recievers will be great - Im a huge Buckeye fan and love what Robiskie did - There is just something in mygut especially from watching him in college, Massaquoi is gonna be SICK! He might pull an eddie royal and be a great fantasy pick up also - look at all the recievers in new orleans last year - the browns could be on that same path

      The Browns are in massive---"quick it fix and win" mode... we couldnt just pick best available or base our pick on one possible trade option... our franchise keeps getting erased and rebuilt...with only a handful of picks, it made good sense to wheel and deal. I had no problem with working with the Jets. Heck, we are thier NFL minor league affiliate...why the heck not ???? (lust kidding...I liked our draft)

      Crabtree wasnt going to make us an instant winner...but going out and dealing for possibly 4-6 new starters has the potentail to change our result on the field.

      Lets hope so.

      Yeah the only thing Crabtree would have done right away in Cleveland is sell jerseys and open up a restaurant in Euclid called Michaels CrabLegs "catchem if ya can" LOL

        Disagree with the Browns decision? Doesn't he know it's April? April through August is our best season!

        Obviously he does not know what the MIGHTY CLEVELAND BROWNS are all about!

        Disagree with the Browns!

        A lot of people have disagreed with the Browns decisions over the past 10 years and,,, well,,, we've proven them wrong?

        Remember the past 10 drafts everyone. We have always been told we had great drafts, but if they don't translate into wins, who cares. Two years ago, Savage was a draft wizard.

          Leach is evidently supposed to be some sort of Offense Savant, but he just looks like a guy who will show up at a recruit's house with mayo on his chin.

          This is the offensive genius that called a QB sneak on 4th and almost 3 in the Cotton Bowl. It even left the Announcers stunned..

            I love post like these. While they are calling out someone for being an idiot they reveal themselves through an inability to write. The Irony is just so wonderful.

              Browns fans are such idiots. First, Crabtree probly didnt want anything to do with Cleveland so he gave that impression when he was there. He will be much better off where he is. Second, this idea that well Leech is a "jackass" and is pretending TX Tech is some kinda elite program? Are you kidding me Browns fan? Do you know where your team ranks compared to other teams in relevance. Damn near last lol. Maybe if CLeveland had Leech they could figure out how to put the ball in the endzone. People on here talk alot for having a crappy team with no real prospects. In reality heres what you should take away from the draft and look forward to. A ego maniac Bellichek wanna be coach who has never won anything at any level, 2 high priced yet still loser quarterbacks, a management trying to get rid of your best target for those overrated qbs (edwards) who passes on several much better prospects than mack or anyone else they took, and finally a fan base who thinks that everything is good. I can't figure out why the browns are so awful every year. Loser team, loser town. Lebrons was from here and he will be gone soon too lol, and once again ALL of your teams will suck. So when you have either Anderson or Quinn getting knocked around and you dont have either Crabtree or Edwards to help or a half decent defense remember Mangini is to blame, but at least you dont have any divas hahaha. Enjoy last place.

              go root for SanFransisco you F$#k ... 😛

                You gotta love an idiot kid from Texas coming on here to back his coach/players. I love angry rants like that...makes the person feel good while looking like a moron at the same time haha. Crabtree fell because that happens in the NFL. Texas Tech is a nobody college program. Hooray for their one guy a year entering the NFL! The coach wanted to make the press and he did. Spoken like a true fool haha.

                Next!

                      This video makes me sad...

                      Uh, uh, uh...uh...conversate...ugh, ugh.

                      (converse!)

                      Urban Dictionary says - conversate

                      A word used by backwards, ignorant, illiterate inner city trash who mean to say 'converse'.

                      "Yo, I just needs to conversate witcha!"

                        Get a real job? I guarentee Mike Leech has a better job and makes more money than any of you losers. Pathetic all of you. The guy stuck up for his player. Get over it. This is the most Retarded fan base in America. Talks more than anyone and has such a crapy team. Leach won more games this year than you idiots and had fewer attempts. Finished with a top ten team and once again one of the best offenses. Hes at the top of his profession and all you idiots do is say he doesn't know what hes doing. Pull your heads out from that crap hole you live in and look around my God. Anyone remember a team called the Ravens? They didnt win crap their but somehow won the super bowl almost immediatly after getting out of there and away from all you idiot fans who change everything if it doesnt work right away. Once again you will be a loser. Maybe this year you can blame Mike Leech since your running out of options. Pathetic. Viva John ELway.

                          Well, evidently, if you're "conversating" with a female about your "computer schemes" it's all good.

                          That, and make sure you force her to eat in front of you. 😁

                              I love this kid. He kills me. Please stick around throughout the year. You make me chuckle. Love comparing a national football team to a college program...talent is EXACTLY the same! NFL teams are elite. They don't have the option to beat on scrub teams like you can in college.

                              You'll grow up someday son...don't worry.

                                  You guys are the ones getting all wriled up. Its easy to get everyone to agree with you on a website sponsered by your own team. As soon as someone comes in with a different opinion everyone comes together to defend the historically great Cleveland Browns organization. I only responded in the first place because whats the point of all of you getting on here to kiss manginis ass and agree with each other. I guess I can let you get back to Mangini is awesome and Quinn is the answer. Don't hold your breath. Don't get all pissed either because someone got on here who is not a Browns fan. Its called perspective. But Im sure Ill just get a bunch of Texas Tech sucks, Leech doesn't know how to coach, crabtree sucks responses so you stay classy Cleveland. By the way avoid the main points and focus on a misplaced coma or something like that and that will be a good defense of your team. pfff. talk football

I guess I can let you get back to Mangini is awesome and Quinn is the answer. Don't hold your breath. Don't get all pissed either because someone got on here who is not a Browns fan. Its called perspective. But Im sure Ill just get a bunch of Texas Tech sucks, Leech doesn't know how to coach, crabtree sucks responses so you stay classy Cleveland. By the way avoid the main points and focus on a misplaced coma or something like that and that will be a good defense of your team. pfff. talk football

                                    we aint getting wriled up ... just disappointed with the dropping level of IQ demonstrated by the visiting Trolls. and must be one heckofa troll for a Texas supporter to come to a browns board as if Texas has no NFL teams and try to defend crabman for a non event. proof enough that the recession is very deep no doubt.

                                      You guys are the ones getting all wriled up. Its easy to get everyone to agree with you on a website sponsered by your own team.

                                      I doubt you've been here enough to make any kind of accurate observation concerning the fans and their feelings about Mangini.

                                      There have been plenty of doubters on this board from the time Mangini was hired. This board is not filled with Sycophants.

                                      Making an observation is ok....But man, make it an educated one.

                                        Spare me. Do not pretend like you know anything about me. I'm a college student. Not at Tx Tech just so you know and I happen to be a college and NFL fan like most of the rest of you. Dropping IQ...once again do not pretend like you know me and then take a look at the posts that most of you put up here and really read them. I'm a college student and I'm on here killing some time. I feel fine about myself for that. Not to sterotype but its not much of a reach to say that is a pretty insecure town when one person disagreeing with the group, which deep down lets be honest knows your team is no good, can ignite all this......all you want to hear is Brady Quinn is gonna break out any week now...or Mangini doesn't take divas....ok well thats boring...but whatever go Browns I guess, another year of excellance

                                          You are judged by your posts and they are asinine for example -

                                          "First, Crabtree probly didnt want anything to do with Cleveland so he gave that impression when he was there. He will be much better off where he is."

                                          If someone didnt want to be here and acted like a Diva what is wrong with calling him a diva ? Also I dunno how many years uve been watching NFL but it has been ages since the 49ers were playoff worthy ... another example [wink.gif]

                                          "Loser team, loser town. Lebrons was from here and he will be gone soon too lol, and once again ALL of your teams will suck."

                                          So much for us being the one getting riled .... and all this from your first post !

                                          Now if i were to defend Crabtree the least I would do is quote his college statistics - how the team fared with him and without him and how he was a team player ... you have done none of that ... ur only defense ... Browns fans are blah blah ...

                                          anyways, troll on .... the offseason is a boring time.

                                          so who do u root for apart from Texas Ducks ? (I was asking about the NFL Team )
