  • On calloway- this guy isn't your typical 'character' problem guy.  By most accounts he is a BAD APPLE.  I follow sec football pretty closely, and I cant recall

    many players who have his sorts of character issues.  He isn't the kind of player who gets caught up in the wrong crowd; he IS the wrong crowd.

  • I see potential bust with every pick.

  • Another group of picks being coached by the worst head coach of all time.  What could go wrong?

  • I see potential bust with every pick.

    Really!  I'm not familiar with him.  So you're thinking that's a guaranteed wasted pick then.  And that there's some potential Gordon will tag along with him for the ride.....

    Have you ever coached or ever played the game? Now with Haley in place. It's very possible Hue can now fix a few things with his time..A)team more game tape prepared for weekly opponents. B.) And Biggest.Players Executing their assignments..For every play there is 2-3 players/boners not doing their assignment. These are when you saw Cam Erving laying in the QB's lap in QB's drop. And when at a RB exchange RB gets blasted.. C.) Most are position coaches not doing their jobs teaching techniques. But some players just suck at taking teaching of technique seriously being a pro. Those players get a phone call to your GM asking for better talent..Good coachable Talent can win accepting being Coached..Hue's best position coach at this point is our DL coach Clyde Simmons.. 

  • the more I think about this draft, the more disgusted I am with it.  

    We selected a qb #1 overall who is 6 feet, not that athletic, has a decent but not great arm....when we could have drafted rosen or darnold.

    I like our pick at #4, but could we have gotten him some picks later?

    Austin Corbett at 33 is a bad joke.  So he's going to compete for maybe the center starting job? wtf? Did we draft him 33 or 233?

    Nick chubb at 35 is a crappy pick....he has no burst.  Good kid, just the inury killed him.

    Chad thomas...who?

    Antonio Calloway is perhaps the least character player in the whole draft.  Has like 6 red flag incidents....the sort of guy an organization should want nothing to do with.

    Yeah not quite. He took an alcoh9lic Retard #1 overall. That isn't a "high character" player anymore than Callaway or the other drug addled loser he took late in the draft.

    An alcoholic Retard was taken in this draft?  I didn't know your name was on the Big Board.

    All 256 picks.  Yes.   Except Mr. Irrelevent.   He will make it big! 😆

  • Think about all the past drafts in which we thought that the Browns killed it....thought they hit home runs out of the park all over the place.

    Now think about this draft where the comments are:  Meh,   each pick seems reachy.    X player sucks, Y player sucks, Z player sucks.

    So, maybe that is a good sign:   we amateurs think that the Browns did meh...

    ....and hopefully, in fact....5 years down the road this draft proves to have been a killer draft.  Opposite of what many think.

    As in:  when we think we got it right we actually got it wrong, and when we think we got it wrong we actually got it right?

    Been there a few times, yes.

    Still working on my take, but I think it's safe to say that we did not win this draft.

    Do yourself a favor and at least wait until the pro data starts flowing.

    One drunk and disorderly bust in college does not make someone an alcoholic. As to being a Retard, he blew Marrucci away with his white board work at the Combine. Had a respectable Wunderlich, if you want to call a prospect a Retard, that's Jackson's 8.

    Too bad for you, then. Pretty much very athletic and durable - well above average arm. Darnold has turnovers problem, and rosen?

    LOL. You have to be kidding. You crab about Mayfield not being athletic..but you wanted ROSEN ? Come on, man.

    http://usatodayhss.com/2018/baker-mayfield-baseball-high-school-nfl-draft

      Little short Mayfield, not my first pick, we all know who my first pick was- is more like 6'1" - Trubisky is only an inch taller.

    Corbett is a kickass run blocker good enough to have played LT - you don't think he'll make a terrific pulling OG ? He CAN play center, but that isn't using all his skills. He is Joel Bitonio, who plays LT. Seriously, I was surprised, but READING and WATCHING, it was a great pick.

    Chad Thomas, here is who:

    http://www.cleveland.com/nfl-draft/index.ssf/2018/04/chad_thomas_get_to_know_the_br.html

    and as much as I am all about character - Calloway does have a daughter - and he wants to make his life now, about making a future for her. The Browns sent people to check him out. Given that, it was a terrific choice to take a chance on a formerly troubled kid, who is probably the best wr in this draft.

    They have this new intelligence test for football players now......not the Wonderlic.   Someone on here reported that Mayfield got like the 2d highest score ever on that test.   Need something to confirm that....but that is what was stated.

    4th round receivers wash out all the time.  Does it really matter why?
