    Partly because that team around him is so poor as well.

    When he came into the league he had at least a fairly competent o line, the results spoke for themselves. What we see now is what would have happened if the browns drafted him. Dinged and binged and not much long for this league.

    Luck has definitely regressed under the weight of the David Carr Syndrome... or Tim Couch Syndrome, if you prefer.

    Weak D, with weak OL and little run game will take its toll.

    Yep. Our OL will make some difference....assuming it plays up to expectations. But we also need that QB that can make quick decisions and that has a quick release.

    BO did not seem to be that guy in his stint in Houston...did he? And Kessler does not seem to really be that guy either....unless he improves greatly after his rookie season.

    No, he has not been that kind of guy. He shows flashes at times, but so far he has looked like a mid to upper level backup. If you go with Brock and your ground game really steps up, and your line plays up to its potential, then I think he might be able to succeed. He is definitely not a guy you can lean on. I think there have been more qbs in the past like that than you would think though. There have been several good qbs change teams in the past and not live up to expectations. Some of that is because the teams have a more solid foundation than people give them credit for. They go to a team without that foundation and it shows. I think BO is similar, just without the luxury of ever being with a team with that solid foundation.

    "On Wednesday from the league meetings in Arizona, Panthers coach Ron Rivera expounded on what Newton endured last season.

    “He’s gonna have to rebuild his confidence. I mean, he was shook. Let’s be honest. I’m not going to lie about that,” Rivera said, via NFL.com. “The young man went through a tough time and we went through a tough time. Why? Because of the injuries that we suffered on the offensive line. That was probably was the biggest thing. It just kind of shows you the more of the importance of being able to protect your quarterback.”

    Well Duh!!

    No....that can't be possible. Ron Rivera clearly doesn't know what he's talking about. Offensive lineman are all fatasses with no talent and they're a dime a dozen. Doesn't matter who they are, they are all interchangeable.

    The fact that Garrett competed today at his pro-day, when he easily could've Jadeveon Clowney'd it, makes me feel much better about his motor. I'm still not 100% sold on him, but today got me closer.

    Garrett is this years Clowney.

    If you want him get him question is who wants the #1 this year? We can still trade down a couple of spots and get a blue chipper.

    We suck at the trade down, lets just take the best guy for once.

    We need so many good football players at any position,need really does not matter. Garrett has been the biggest name in college football past 2 years. Not many can fault us for taking Garrett #1..but watch what happens when & if Garrett fails. "THE BROWNS did not do their homework on this guy". Garrett to me is the safest pick at #1. followed by your Cali guy Solomon Thomas than Jamal Adams..28 days to go..No Wheel-lies

    The Browns are really high on Hooker as well. They made from 12 up to around 6-8 range and give up a second as well.

    It's seems that this years draft has solid finds thru maybe 2.5 rounds. I like the fact that comp. picks (4th) our now trade-able. But this FO has also build ammo into 2018 draft that they may very well use in small slide ups for a more talented player like in Hooker at a need..Draft Capital is a nice thing to have. just depends how they use it..you can end up with 26 football players such as Scooby in 2 drafts vs 10 true football starters as in Hooker..Build thru the Draft was their statement..It's Showtime!!
