targeting the secondary in the draft....
-
All true but I’m not sure that we are any better off with some of our linebackers for our interior defense of line
-
Can we get an offensive line first. Controlling the line of scrimmage is very important in today’s game.

I know injuries have ravaged us there, but I'd argue(even without that) secondary has to be our biggest area of upgrade.
On many snaps, we have multiple guys out there who simply should not be playng meaningful snaps in th nfl. Mahomes could have thrown for 500 today had he wanted to. We have guys who can't play in space. Which in the secondary in 2018 is just asking to be attacked.
Peppers is unplayable on a decent defense. Another safety(or two...hardly been blown away be randall who granted has been hurt a lot) to get him off the field every play next year is a must. Our non-ward corners are terrible with terrible ball skills.
If we don't address the corner or safety position through FA or trade, I would select a safety second round and a corner first round.

We had our three top corners out today and our best safety and our best coverage linebacker. mahomes has been lighting it up on everybody so maybe don't use today as the barometer. Terrence Mitchell had good ball skills prior to getting injured.

Mitchell was playing very well. Try to hide the fact you don't know what you're talking about a little better.

In FA and the draft and in no particular order
OL x2
CB
WR x2

OLB

Yeah...I think that's about right for what we need. OL and WR on offense and a lot of defense help. Clearly injuries have hurt so maybe we will see how they play as some guys come back but I still think that's that pretty much the needs list.
From what I saw yesterday, I think the playcalling was 1000% better than it has been all season. Baker looked better than he's has the last couple weeks. They were outmatched yesterday against KC and that's not a bad thing because most teams have been outmatched against KC. Browns will win a 2 or 3 of the remaining games and be competitive against everyone.

CB-Just pray that we finally get the elusive Howard Wilson off of IR playing like he is injury free.

Why do you and Tour think this guy is some kind of anything? He was, what? a mid or late round draft choice that has been nothing but a pilgaric for this team so far.
-
He was a pretty decent CB with 6'1" size in a predominantly passing league. I thought if was a smart move to trade up into the 4th round to get him.
-
I was shocked Wilson lasted until the 4th...
I don't see us drafting 2ndary players either Days 1 or 2 in 2019.

Yea, sure, for a guy that has not done Bo Diddley for this team in the two years he has been here. (Or has it been longer?)
Is there a single Browns fan who has any confidence in this guys future with this team? Especially since he was not a Dorsey pick....unless he really can prove something, he could be shipped out as soon as he is able to.
-
Here's an idea: Draft this punter. He just set a new NCAA mark and depending upon how he does in the last game against LSU, he is on pace to break the all-time single season punting average. He leads in the Ray Guy Award too.
-When Braden Mann connected on a 60-yard punt in the first quarter, he broke the NCAA single-season record of 60+-yard punts with 15.

In FA and the draft and in no particular order........again 3 or 4 real need positions, must pick well again without #1 & 4.
OL x2 <---- maybe there available
CB
WR x2 <---- maybe there also
S
OLB
Cleveland might be a more desirable place for some select FAs after the 2018 season so far.....that might help. Remember how every available better QB signed elsewhere last year?
Now maybe picking out of the top 10 or 5 might seem strange but then again what decent FAs want a team that's "on the clock".
........edit, oh also getting closer to seeing who will be sitting out this years bowl game season

Steelers do well with a sh1tty secondary.
Historically they have invested the great bulk of their picks and money in their front 7. Also helps they have an offense that can keep pace with others should a team attack their secondary. But make no mistake, they're going to run up against a team that will make them pay for how bad their DB's are.
-
DL round 1, that's the runD problem. Pick one of the top DL's, I'd go with more DT over DE because if Ogbah isn't elite he's pretty close.
OL round 2 - at a minimum Hubbard shouldn't be on that contract.
Somewhere in there we also need to upgrade the LB's.. Schobert is really our only one. Kirksey and Collins are nowhere near as good as their contracts.
After that I don't really care until they make the final roster.. Avery is only a backup because he absolutely cannot cover in space. A good backup, yes, but not a starter.
