    You all can guess that he has my vote. But if you need any more incentive there it is! If Ozzie Newsome wants him then he is probably somebody you should draft.

  • I think most browns fans want to see us take Oregon linebacker Casey Matthews Saturday. The Question is when? I think there is a real good chance he'll be there in the 5th round, but should we pull the trigger early in the 4th??? His old man is a legend, and i think it would pay great homage to him, as well as loyal browns fan who remember the Clay SR days. Clearly Clay Jr has exceeded most peoples expectations early in Green Bay. I'd love to see this kid with an orange lid on in September. He's a developmental guy who might work into a starting spot in a few years, I'm sure he'd be a special teams demon in the meantime. Let's roll the dice H&H!!! I'm sure he'll pan out better than Kaluka or Veikune.

    I want to see him in the Brown and Orange as well, but I'm not going to blame Heckert if he tries to wait and get him in the 5th and someone else jumps on him. Heck I wouldn't even hold it against him if Heckert didn't draft him at all just because at this point I trust in Heckerts judgement.

  • We should take him in the fourth. I think he will be there in the 5th round, but i'd lock him in early. He has a ton of potential. He's got the bloodline. His dad was a great, his brother appears to be on his way and we passed on him, so i think H&H have to give this kid a shot. You wont hear too many loyal Browns fans complain.

    I want this kid big time, but like you, I trust Heckert's moves whether or not he agrees with me. After all, he's the expert.

    I'm going to preface my comment that Ray Lewis didn't have great measurables either. Yeah, since we whiffed on his brother, it would be nice to have him in a Browns uniform.

    However, we can't be sentimental. By today's standards, Matthews 6'1" 230 is a runt @ linebacker- if he had better speed (couldn't find his 40 time) he'd be better suited to play saftey.

    Depends on how far he falls- and I'm sure Ozzie Newsome hasn't forgotten about playing with his dad. 🙂

    Absolutely. Going beyond the name Casey is going to have to bulk up- 230 lbs, & get way stronger (13 reps @ 225, I'm betting you can go down to your local Gold's Gym and find a few guys who can do better than that).

    And I'm with you- if we take him at all, top of the 5th is as high as I'd go. We have far more pressing needs to address in the fourth round.

  • First pick in the 4th round. He will be gone alot sooner than you think.

    You pick. Mine? If talent is equal, go with the bigger guy. 🙂

    PS, for the crowd that was screaming for Peterson, there's a ton of DBs rated higher than either.

    Yep, he would be a special teams monster right away and within a year he would unseat one of our starters.
