    We couldn't be further from cap hell, even if we sign Cousins.

    It's time to quit hating on the franchise. We have the people, the picks, and the resources to do more than any other team.

    If Cousins goes to Denver, we should all be extremely happy because we are still drafting the best QB in the draft. If we get him, we should be extremely happy because we just moved the most important position light years ahead and have more pieces in the draft.

    Either way we should be extremely happy this offseason. It's going to be a great one and the future looks bright. Wouldn't want to be following any other franchise from this point forward.

    Happy, happy joy, joy Z.  I'm not the Curmudgeon in the survival pool for no reason. I'm mildly hopeful, but like they say in Missouri "SHOW ME" before I get excited. We just lost out on Smith, if Cousins stays true to his word, he's not coming to Cleveland either. Even if he does, it's premature to start thinking a winning record, much less playoffs. Hold off printing the Super Bowl tickets for a couple years at least. This is nowhere close to the Bronco's situation when they landed Manning. in fact, I'm pretty confident John Boy is going to try mighty hard to repeat that coup. MHO? Kirk on the Browns is buying a very expensive ticket on a plane that has a fair amount of air miles on it- that may not take you to the destination you want to wind up at. We get Cousins, it's "all in" for the next 4 years, I'd rather hedge my bets. 

    I've been pretty clear on what I want to see happen. Nab the best FA bridge qb we can get. (I don't want McCarron at the cost of our #33.) Draft the best QB we have on our board- who's going to have a lot longer shelf life than Cousins, hope Barkley falls to #4. If he doesn't take Fitzpatrick or Chubb. Grab our running back @ #33 Sony Michel or equivalent. Right now our needs are #1 franchise qb- and it's not even close, DBs, RB, WR.  That's my take, love it or hate it. MHO it will get us to the Super Bowl just as soon as giving Cousins a Brinks truck loaded with $100 dollar bills. LOL, and Gip would love this trivia (if my math is right) A stack of $100 million worth of $100 dollar bills is 58 feet longer than a football field.  🙂

    I think either scenario is great. This franchise has a lot to look forward to. Exciting times ahead.

    How come you go on and on about the best player ever, but won't even answer a question about him?

    Maybe it's because you read it and it actually made sense to you and you are now backing off

    Honestly....I don't know if Barkley would be good/bad for this team....but because of your Dog Slobbering over him...I basically want no part of him.

    Po told us Derek Carr would be a franchise QB.

    Po told us Flash Gordon would be back as a Brown.

    Po is correct, Barkley is the best "immediate impact" talent in the draft and if we pass on him we are making a huge mistake.

    Po knows best.

    Po  was in love with TR

    Po was in love with Hogan

    You are assessing Ghoolie like qualities to him  (giving him/himself credit for things he got right...ignoring what he got wrong).  Do you really want to go there?

    Po told us Trent Richardson would be awesome

    Po told us Johnny Fuckwad was awesome

    Po sucks off Cody Hogan

    Po doesn't know his ass from third base.

    Barkley is over rated.   Plenty of RB's just as good as Charles Barkley can be found in round 2.

    D*mn you kinda took my Charles Barkley line......but with two HIGH first round picks I'd like to see them get a top RB along with a stud other pick.......that is if they don't have to waste a pick on a "not ready for prime time quarterback" this year, oh well we all have our wish lists.

    I don't see Barkley in the Tomlinson/Peterson class.   So therefore there's plenty of backs that are just as good that can be had at 33.   QB at 1 and then best player available (other than OL) at 4.

    He's now confining his Saquon stand to one thread... I think we can give him that.

    Well give the Barkley guys their moment in the sun......afterall he hasn't been hit by the brutal NFL guys yet.

    ... and yet there's no concern over his limited ability to break tackles.

    That is a possibility, college hype bust or might shine at the next level? And yes the normal rounds for good RBs is generally  2-4.

    QUESTION: How does he compare with that fast stud Ezekiel coming out of OHIO STATE? 

    On my wish list:

    A. Smith - gone

    K. Cousins - please somehow sign, avoid a QB pick in round 1

    Two first round picks with a RB and other stud player

    Hit the lottery for more than $10 😆

    He has speed... although I think his Combine 40 time will not live up to billing. Speed to power? Doesn't just apply to Edge rushers.

    His strength is supposed to be fast+elusive+power... and he has all those elements... but which one is "elite" in its own right?

    Straight line speed, yes.  But this talk of him running a 4.3?  No way.   Same thing I heard about Peppers last year.    As for the speed to power? I just don't see him as an inside gap runner that turns out more yards than his line blocks for at times.  He also has a nasty habit of chopping his feet or at times not even moving them when behind the LOS.

    As for being elusive? First game I dialed up with the Iowa one and he was tackled in open field by DB's more times than I care to count.  

  •  Yes, yes, Gipper, Ghoolie qualities should not be given to anyone. There is only one Ghoolie and he is me. I am the most accurate football prognosticator and expert regardless of the theater and geography. 

    But, I digress. I don't have time for this schidt........ I am busy selling one of my homes, getting my garage ready for a Harley, and trying to figure out how to hide my wife's guns so I am safe when I bring the bike home. 

    Also, I am writing another Irish tune. This time for WSS. I may sing on this one, in honor of my great, long time friend.

    Here is some music for all of you. It will hopefully cause you to take a break from trying to launch grenades at me.

    1) Ride The High Country....... a simple demo of a song I am pitching to a movie maker for a new cowboy project.

    2) A short diddy of That's Amore'....because I love you all.

    Enjoy.

    Many of the so-called draft experts have the Browns going QB first and then taking Barkley @ #4. However, he'll never be there @ #4. I'm sure somebody already said this before me, but unless they are set on just ONE QB and feel they will lose him at #4, they better take Barkley @ #1. (That's if they want him)! At first, I thought they should take the QB they wanted, then the CB @ #4. Then pick up an OT, RB, & WR in the second round. But like many, I feel this guy is just too good to pass up on! I'm also leaning more toward hoping they go after Cousins to--that's if they don't give up the farm for him.

    Absolutely and welcome to the Browns Board! 

    I was so hoping the BROWNS could land an offseason starting QB but we'll see on that I'd love to see them get Barkley plus another stud player, maybe defense?  Minkah? Plus with 12 picks they can really get need players.
