<![CDATA[So We Take Rg3. We Need A Wr? Who Do We Want.]]>I was at the game this past Sunday and something that was glaring me in the face all day other than cold, rain and snow was the fact that we never EVER stretched the field deep. Granted, we had horrible conditions Sunday, but that didn't stop Ben from throwing deep into the wind and getting a completion out of it. Pittsburgh loaded the box on us all day because we never threw deep.

So, let's say we get RG3. We need a WR that can stretch the defense and create some space for us. Who, why and how do we get him? I don't see Blackmon and RG3 both in our draft this year. Is it Holmes, does he have the speed we need?

If they lose in the first round it would be higher.

hence why he was saying pass on blackmon...he doesn't possess elite speed, thats a fact.

ya see, everyone sees blackmon whooping up on CB's that wont even make it past the CFL and think he immediately will be that good in the NFL. he'll likely make a great WR for someone who needs a reliable guy, but while that may be nice for us, we need someone to take off the top.

Yeah, I guess Larry Fitzgerald isn't an elite WR, either.

40 times are draft fodder for the foolish. Football speed is completely different.

how the hell do you throw deep if your QB doesn't have enough time for the play to develop...yes, you can get it to the exact spot in a fraction of a second but the deep cover is going to get it before your WR does...we need extra time at least 3/4 to 1 second longer for us to be a deep threat...Blackmon is not a deep threat he will be a slot WR...and a damn good one at that.

to win the game you protect your QB and destroy theirs...it's really that simple.

Your an idiot. You don't spend your top 5 pick on a slot WR, you spend it on a legit #1 WR.

We need better.

And no one seems to understand this. QB QB QB QB! Nooo we actually have a decent one in McCoy who wants to win and become great. Give him an actual recieving core and a back to complement Hillis( if he's still there)

and no one seems to understand mccoy isn't very good either. wanting to win and doing it are completely different things.

Blackmon will probably go to the Rams with the second pick so if thats the case, I say draft Trent Richardson with the fourth pick and then follow up Kendall Wright or (unlikely if Floyd is still there)

Our problem isnt a QB in cleveland, we need to give our quarterback some weapons for once in this organization

If we take RGIII, which we shouldn't and won't, it's almost mandatory to take Kendall Wright. Adds the deep threat and will help RGIII's confidence in the offense. Must pick.

You guys keep assuming Kendall Wright will still be on the board for the 24th (could be better or worse depending on how well Atlanta does in the playoffs) overall pick. I have seen him ranked as high as 15 overall so odds are he won't be there. It's nice to dream, but the reality is this won't happen. If we want Kendall Wright we should trade down a few spots to grab him, and pick up an extra 2nd rounder along the way..

They would absolutely kill it for years. Win or lose, the Browns sure would be fun as hell to watch, even in their first season on the Browns.

He quit on the Jets the last two weeks of this season so badly that he was benched for the final two drives of the last Jets game.. while wearing the captain armband.

If RG3 then Wright at the bottom of the first.
