    Lets just start it right off.

    The defensive end front is looking very solid. I love the drafting of Jabaal Sheard. Phil Taylor is an unknown for me, but if we pick up Charles Johnson or Ray Edwards, we may actually be able to stop the run for a change.

    I would love to pick up Mark Herzlich as a linebacker. Otherwise, we are ok in that department.

    My wishlist for safety goes: Donte Whitner, Quintin Mikell, and Eric Weddle. All three of those would fill that hole sufficiently.

    As for offense, we need a solid right tackle. I dont know who is out there on the market, but if we can get a right tackle who is above average or can at least hold his own, I am all for it. We are good on running back, although I would take an undrafted FA who is a speed back to change the pace.

    My wishlist for Wide Receiver goes: Sidney Rice, Vincent Jackson, Derrick Mason, Randy Moss. Ill take any of those.

    There you have it. Whats your wishlist look like?

      Not Jackson or Moss for sure. C-A-N-C-E-R. Sorry, but the the Browns are not going to contend this year- so bringing in an over the hill vet isn't going to happen. Especially someone like Moss who's worn out his welcome on every team he's ever played on.

      Whitner? OK, Cleveland guy, and only 26.

      And we are NOT OK at linebacker. We're potentially OK at RT, assuming Pashos is healthy, and can stay healthy. Go for depth. ESPN put DL as a need for the Browns and I totally agree.

              I doubt Wright will be re-signed and IMO that's good. Does he need to be cut or is he free to go?

                  Hasn't he had a few good years in Buffalo?

                  Is it fair to say that other than Joe Haden, he is better than any other cornerback we have? (including Sheldon Brown and Wright)

                  Yes, I agree, but I also agree that linebacker is shaky for us. Perhaps even shakier than DL now that we have Taylor and Sheard.

                    Wish List-

                    CB-Jonathan Joseph

                    FS-Eric Weddle

                    DE-Charles Johnson

                    These are a few of the top players i would be targeting,there all still young and have upside we need to stay away from over the hill type players who we are used to signing.

                      Bring in Moss and Plaxico and Benson. Any of these players can help the Browns win September home games.

                      Roll the dice and see what pans out. Moss is a future HOF er and benson is coming off two consecutive

                      1000 yards rushing seasons. Plaxico, well who knows.

                      Benson has averaged 3.6 ypc during his stint with bears and bengals. He is unrestricted and ain' the most

                      popular guy in town at the moment. Value there.

                        Tully Banta-Cain cut from Patriots

                        Banta-Cain wouldn't be a bad acquisition. He brings experience and productivity, without being too far over the hill (he's 30). He's from both a winning culture (Patriots) and a losing culture (49ers).

                        He's a great pass rusher, and that's something we definitely need. The only problem is that he more than likely won't be an everydown backer, and will probably only see the field in passing situations.

                          Just being realistic. You seriously think the Browns can contend this year? Totally new coaching staff, new system. The rookies are going to have their heads spinning well into October without the benefit of OTAs.

                          It's better to set the bar low, and be surprised when the Browns exceed it, than expect the playoffs and watch the team go in the toilet.

                            Holmgren already said no guys with baggage, so forget about Moss (I assume you mean Randy) and Benson got arrested for assault- ditto. Burress has been out of the league for a few years, and is supposedly talking with the Giants, yet another baggage guy.

                            Oh the Cowboys are supposedly cutting Marion Barber if you really want another RB, and I'll take an injury risk in Sidney Rice over a character risk any day.

                              I agree.

                              The only thing I expect out of this season on gameday is attending several winning tailgates. Anything good after that is a bonus.

                              If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

                                  Looks like we can take Quintin Mikell off the list of players we get. It looks like he has come to terms with St. Louis

                                    You can toss our players like Polozo-whatever from Buffalo and Johnson from Carolina. Mickel from Philly already signed with the Rams, Weddle is expected to sign with the Jags. As far as I know Ruud is still up for grabs as is Clabo. I heard Edwards signed with Atlanta last night but those two guys from the Giants are still available. As far as WR's go all are still available and the only two that have been reported to be out of the hunt for a spot in Cleveland (as in Holmgren and Heckert won't look at them) are Owens and Jackson. Fingers crossed, hoping to hear some good FA news for the Browns before I go to work today!

                                        Tully Banta-Cain cut from Patriots

                                        Banta-Cain wouldn't be a bad acquisition. He brings experience and productivity, without being too far over the hill (he's 30). He's from both a winning culture (Patriots) and a losing culture (49ers).

                                        He's a great pass rusher, and that's something we definitely need. The only problem is that he more than likely won't be an everydown backer, and will probably only see the field in passing situations.

                                        Wasn't this guy a Star Wars character? If not, with a name like that, he should have been. (Perhaps one of the bounty hunters)

                                          Manny Lawson is known as a 3-4 pass rush LB and Tim Hightower is a big powerback which we already have.
