Scribbles from Andrew Gribbles - 10 Prospects to Watch

The Browns Board
15 11 475
  • A definite OL, DL and a few miscellaneous players on that list.

    ....... edit add, and it will be a plus to have a ready to go Myles Garrett back.

  • They say Baun wants to play off ball linebacker...guess who is comp is? yep, one Joe Schobert. They say their games are very similar in that both were hybrid DE's in college but had the athleticism to play off ball. 

    I still think depending on how the board is set-up to fall, the Browns will seriously consider trading down from 10 into the 13-16 range and taking a guy like Josh Jones. Which would drive fans more crazy if they "theoretically overdraft a guy" like jones at 10 or if they trade down in general? I have a sense it would be the trade down...

  • Name the last guy from Michigan that has done anything in the NFL !!!

    Devin Bush.

    What did I win?

  • I could see Baun coming into the mix if Schobert see's anything close to a CJ Mosley deal that we ain't paying.. What we need is a serious run thumper at ILB.. and this draft is slim..Was Woods at Denver when Danny Trevathan was still there? has Trevathan even hit age 30 yet? am off to offer google a market value to buy some thuggery  ?

    Leroy Hoard. 

  • Big gap between Devin Bush and Leroy Hoard  , I’d pass drafting anyone from Michigan.

    Here's a few guys after Hoard and before Bush that didn't do too bad:

    Tom Brady, Ty Law, Charles Woodson, Steve Hutchinson, Jon Runyan, Brandon Graham, Taylor Lewan
