    If Dr. Peppers is used extensively as a PR, KR it will most likely reduce his professional career. This isn't college.

    I hope he's successful for the BROWNS sake but is still a big reach at #12 compared to what the BROWNS could have had as a DB in that spot in this year’s LOADED defensive draft.

    KO Return Ave. - 18.7 yd - 28th in league

    Punt Return Ave. - 6.7 yd - 26th

    Pretty good call... but about that Peppers - Palumalu comparison...

    Thanks for the stats! Man, it's hard to believe there were that many teams WORSE than us at returning kicks/punts. I was happy to see us fair catch the thing or fall forward for 5 yards, LOL. I watched some of Peppers returns on YouTube, and the guy seems very confident (maybe TOO confident, lol) catching the ball and turning up the field. He's definitely got the "look", and his acceleration and shiftiness is definitely noticeable.

    I want to say again for the record. I am NOT...NOT...saying Peppers WILL BE PALUMALU, LOL. I am merely saying I can envision Peppers fulfilling a similar ROLE as Troy did...that's all. I would never say a draft pick is going to be a freaking Hall of Famer out of the gate. You guys know me better than that! I just have a vision of this Peppers kid at the line of scrimmage, blitzing the QB, dropping back into deep coverage, and bursting through the line to trip up a ball carrier. I also love how fiery he is, and I think it's something our defense really needed. Jamie Collins is our best defensive player (in my mind), but he appears to be the "strong silent type". Peppers seems like the guy that can get people fired up, and we needed it. I LOVED seeing the video of Hue Jackson and our other coaches get so excited after hearing we took Peppers. We REALLY wanted that kid.

    Chris Tabor seemed very excited would assume he's expecting him on his special teams

    That pretty much sums up my opinion of him. I really don't mind Peppers as the pick...I just don't like where he was picked and who we passed up to slide to #25 to get him.

  • Charley Casserly had the squealers picking Peppers with their first round pick.

    All three first round picks for the Browns will be stars/household names.

    It won't take long.

    Or JP5 which is jet fuel. However, he will be wearing a higher number.

  • While we're on his punt return skills, here's one I was pushing before that doesn't necessarily show up in the stat sheet: Fielding punts that most returns wouldn't attempt, saving us a lot of yards.
