Let's just keep this conversation alive my friend. This happens each and every year, you guys are so sure I am off base, then BOOM the teams does exactly as I predict.
What you don't see, that I do see, is the Browns getting the wors ass kickings yet in teh final 3 weeks. The fans will want someone's head.
Hey, who would have bet that the Jews (responsible for killing Christ) would have chosen Barabbas to live, over Jesus?
Heckert is the only guy who CAN be fired and not cause Holmgren to look like a fool.
Trsut me, at 4 -12, Heckert is gone.
And I told you that I would bet you $100.00 that he ain't.
Holmgren is getting 10 million reasons why he does not have to worry about looking like a fool.

1.I say bring in a play making WR via FA. For the most part it takes to long for a WR to really develop into a consistent threat. There are very good WRs out there that could be had. I say try and grab DeSean Jackson his play making out weighs him being a "cancer" and up until this year I never heard of him being a "cancer". If we can't get him Colston, Steve Johnson, DBowe, or Manningham are nice options. And whoever said Manningham won't leave the Giants because of there "depleated" WRs obviously is clueless as to how second yr WR Victor Cruz is doing and they still also have Nicks who is a beast. Manningham is clearly the third WR and would happily leave to become a 1 or 2 ... he may however think twice about coming here because we suck but that will be the case with any FA.
2.We need to grab a RT ... we should do that via free agency. No need to waste a pick here.
3. If we address WR with a big name WR via free agency I do not want them to waste a early pick on one. I would be fine with DJax/Colston/DBowe along with Little, MoMass, Norwood, and Cribbs. With our first rounders I would like to draft 2 of the following ... DE/LB/CB. In Round 2 and 3 we add ... RB/CB/WR
4. We definitly need to add a OC. I also think it will be Mike Sherman.
5.In free agency we need to add a LBer, CB, and a DE regardless if we draft those positions because we are so thin at all of them. I am also all for trying Sheldon Brown at FS. Robert Mathis or Calais Campbell would be some nice Ends if we could get them. I would also be fine with trading for Osi if the Giants look to move him (Cribbs for Osi??)Potential CBs I would like to see would be Carlos Rogers, BRandon Carr or Cortland Finnigan.
6. We need to resign DQ and I wouldn't hate resigning Hillis if he is ok with A. not taking a long contract for a shitload of money and B. is ok with not being a featured back. I like him as a back to catch some passes out of the backfield and for short yardage.
I would idealy like our team to look like this ...
QB McCoy/Senaca/4th+ project QB
RB 3rd round Lamicael James / Hillis / Hardesty
WR1 Desean Jackson
WR2 Little
WR3 MoMass
WR4 Norwood
WR5 Cribbs
TE Moore / Watson / Cameron
OT JT
OG Steiny
C Mack
OG Pinkston
OT Free agent ???
Defense
DE FA/trade Mathis or OSi or 2nd rd pick
DT Rubin
DT Taylor
DE Sheard
OLB 1a pick
MLB DQ
OLB Gocong/Fujita
CB FA Finnigan/Rogers
CB Haden
DB 1b Minnifield??
DB Skrine
SS Ward
FA Brown

The Browns will likely get 3 players in the Top 40....so that high second round pick should pretty much become an immediate starter as well.
So, who do you think they could get?

Gipper,
It really depends on what they do in free agency. They honestly have a lot of holes and we have a very young team. We need to bring in solid vets via free agency IMO. We can't fill all of our needs in one draft. We need some solid vets in there prime. It also depends a lot on what we do with the QB position. Do we build around Colt? or do we draft someone? Sign a guy like Flynn??
I know this ... we need playmakers on offense and we have a solid D.
My thinking is to sign a WR rather then draft one. There is an abundance of good FA WR's. We can just sign a guy (or 2) we already know can play in this league instead of drafting a guy who may not pan out. I just think it is our biggest hole why mess around with a crap shoot when you can sign a sure thing.
Plus with the defense being solid I say lets put it over the top. Lets go out an use 3 top picks on defensive players and lay down the foundation for an elite defense that can win games on its own. An OLB, CB, and DE can go a really long way on this team. Also drafting a CB could potentially fill 2 holes as we could potentially fill our FS spot with Sheldon Brown until we can find a stud FS in the 2013 draft.
I would love for them to offer the Giants MoMass or Cribbs for Osi ... although I can not see the Giants being dumb enough to do either of those deals.

Well, naturally. Everything we do here in espousing what we think the Browns should do personell wise is purely speculative and is dependent on other factore....like who they pick up in FA etc.

(after getting run over regularly, I am not so sure how solid it is)

I personally don't have a problem with that strategy....if they indeed do get some offensive playmakers in FA.

No shit?
