Let’s win now
-
But I have a dream......OK so I don't, I'm a pragmatic realist, I give up. The BROWNS will draft one of these super rookies they'll flop and Kizer will start the next 15 games.
Maybe a 0.01% chance Cousins will be a brownie?
Since nobody can be 100% sure, I'll grant you the hope of .01%. Feel better? Lol.
But you do sort of bring up a valid point. Although I don't believe the rookie we draft will "flop", I DO believe Kizer has a bigger chance to start than many realize. Whoever we draft will obviously be a rookie, and he's not going to have the faintest idea of how to run an NFL offense, understand the language, or fully comprehend the playbook. Kizer will. This isn't to say our rookie CAN'T beat him out, but it certainly won't be easy, and I doubt the starting gig will be freely given.
No, I suspect our rookie won't play much, especially at first, and we'll throw in some washed out veteran that nobody else wanted. The ever-so-exciting prospects include Sam Bradford (and his knee surgeon), Teddy Twatwater (with Sam's knee surgeon), Chase Daniels (who?!), Nick Foles (surely he was benched for a reason), AJ McCarron (impressive resume of 3 or 4 starts I believe!), and last but not least, Josh McCown (yes, THAT Josh McCown). Have I wet your appetite yet? Oh, and nobody say another word about Kirk Cousins. He's been addressed, and I also don't want to hear anything about Case Keenum. Minnesota made it to the conference championship, they're NOT letting him go, mmmmkay?
So the smart money says this: We're going to trot out the washed out veteran to begin the season. We're going to probably go....oh...like, 1-7 to start the year? We'll probably have our bye right around then, so after that, we'll toss the young rookie out on his butt and tell everyone "it's for his own good" and "he'll get invaluable experience!". The rookie, like virtually ALL rookies, will of course start out completely miserable. We're drafting a QB with the 1st pick, so the pressure to play him will be IMMENSE and suffocating. Our management will give in after the bye week and throw this kid out there, and hopefully NOT ruin him. We'll finish the year with a couple of wins, it won't be enough to save our coach's jobs (good news for some here, not for me), and then NEXT year we'll be starting all over again, and dilly dilly. Did I miss anything?
I need some coffee to get me out of the grumpy, childish, and petulant state I'm currently in. Lol.

You said "Rod Johnson"... uhhuhhuhhuhhuh...
Isn't that his name. The OT that we drafted. Yeah I know

My god, I just stumbled upon the fact that the Browns and Steelers once employed a backup QB in the late 60s named....

When there's nothing wrong with the line. Most if not all of the sacks last season were due to Kizer holding the ball too long. We will need someone to replace Thomas at some point, but not yet.
Joe's heir apparent may need to be drafted at some point during the first 3 rounds this year or next for sure.

But is he?
Drango played LT and looked like trash. They didn’t move Coleman over to LT in Joe’s absence and that may be for a reason pertaining to ability.

Coleman didn't exactly light it up as a RT to be honest.
The Browns should seriously consider investing one of their five 1st and 2nd rounders on Joe Thomas's replacement.

Not impressed with Coleman at RT and Thomas is old. Probably should take a OT in the 1st or 2nd round this year and probably another in 2019 with our 1st or 2nd round pick. Its true that without two strong tackles the rest of the offense can be wrecked but I don't think we need to take two in this draft. HOWEVER...I think we take one in the 2nd round and then if there is a good prospect day two maybe take one with a 4th or 5th. I believe with the two 4ths and two 5ths we take the best player each pick no matter what position it is....

You are correct sir, maybe at #4? Afterall anyone can take the snap from center, right? RB + OL in round 1, not sexy but remember they're building for 2019 and beyond!
........I know that you hate that drivel.
, hey plenty of project QBs in round 2.
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

Yea.....a Browns jersey with a Steeler logo. Funny. We know all about D-ick- Shiner. Browns traded him to the Steelers for Bill Nelsen.
We got the better of the deal. Nelsen lead the Browns to two NFL/C title games. All Shiner did thereafter was...well, you know...shine male appendages.

Yes, let's get another project QB in Rd 2.

I like Rod Johnson.
Drango had pretty positive reviews for being a rookie at that spot.

Don't worry if the BROWNS don't land an experienced FA or traded quarterback before the draft they will pick one in R1 in the draft.
This class has some talented candidates in a lot of positions and no real clear order of 1-2-3-4 in most cases, with 12 picks the BROWNS should be able to land some starters or backup players......or maybe an exorbitant trade we all did not see coming?
-
I am sure using the first 2 picks of the draft on the O line will go down great on here
We know it's not happening...
someone better erase this thread before Ghoolie see's it , drafting 2 OT with the first 2 picks he'll have an epic meltdown !!!!
It would have a positive effect on the board. Ghoolie's head would explode, and we wouldn't have to deal with him anymore....

I am all for the Browns taking two OL with #1 and #4. With both the Steelers and Pats winning their last SBs with a patchedwork OL, BOTH featuring a walk on who never played in the NFL before signing with those teams mid year.....it is YOUR heads, not mine, who explode.
Joe Thomas went down, and the Browns didn't lose a step, The protection was jsut as good from the left side, AND the running game improved. The Browns have spent more money than any team in NFL history on the OL this year. And it got them what? By all means, take all the OL you can get. I will just keep rubbing it in and laughing my asss off at the Browns, and you morons who think the OL is the secret to great offense.
Again.............. from the time a kid starts playing peepee football. If he can't run, kick, pass, catch, cover or tackle.................. he gets sent to the OL. THe worst athletes on the field play OL. Have you ever seen one of these lardasses when they pick up a fumble and try to run? hey look like Oprah WInfrey with her nast-asss pantyhose down around her cankles.
No Father sees his newborn son and proclaims................ I want him to grow up to be an offensive lineman. WHY? Because offensive linemen are the least talented players of ANY sport. Dime a dozen? Absolutely.

I just threw up in my mouth
Kind of scary, did Bruce Jenner lose weight?......but not bad for a 59 year old?
