<![CDATA[Mock-Drafting The Cleveland Browns]]>Ello All!

Over at www.orangemane.com (broncos site) we do a full 7 round mock draft. One person gets assigned a team. You can trade only this years drafts picks for this years draft picks. No players or future picks.

I got the Browns, should be a fun team to do with two first rounders.

So I'm here to get some input.... I know mainstream media sites constantly get the Broncos wrong (last thing we need is a rookie S) so I wanna hear some views from real fans.

I will not be trading up for RG3. (apparently I can't talk about according to the terms of agreement for the site :)Go Colt I guess)

Right now my initial early round plan is as follows.

Move down from 4, to 12-17 range. In order my prospects are 1. Courtney Upshaw 2. Couples 3.Ingram

Stay at 22 and select either Trent Richardson (likely gone, exspecaily in a fan mock) or Kendell Wright.

2nd rounder I'm eyeing ASU QB Brock Oswiesler. Probably have another 2nd rounder if I can pull off the trade down, in this case I'm looking at either Lavonte David OLB - Nebraska or Chris Polk RB Washington.

THIS IS NOT BY ANY MEANS FINAL, OR EVEN CLOSE TO FINAL.

I haven't looked at how I think Lavonte would fit with you guys yet, just love him.

I also hate drafting RB's, just from the outside looking in, seems like you guys need one. So if you have confidence in your backs enlighten me.

I'm pumped for good draft talk!

The board mock draft is HARD WORK. Took us a couple years to get it down, runs smoothly now. You need to have 32 guys COMMITTED. Plus you need 1 person extremely committed to running it.

Back to the draft......

The only reason I would stay at 4 is incase RG3 dropped so I could get a fire-sale for him. Theres just too much value there to not trade it. Anyone interested in Blackmon at 4 AND Wright at 22?

I don't think the Browns can afford to invest that much in one position, especially since we have Greg Little on board, but I think there is definitely interest in one or the other of those at those positions.

Now THAT would be pretty great. We would HAVE to go OLB CB RT with our next picks. We really need a DE, somewhere maybe FA could put a stop gap in place though.

Haha I was thinking the same exact thing. I would wait to trade the 4 until RG3 and Blackmon are gone. Id love Wright at 22 but if not a DE, OLB, or CB would be nice. If you can't snag Blackmon of Wright in the first round a WR would be good in the second followed by the three defensive positions stated above. I really like the idea of doing a board mock draft. Can we get one started?

lol

My thoughts about what we need without giving many specifics because I am not very familiar with all of the options, but I know damn well what we need.

Wright at 22 would be great if you don't snag blackmon at 4. Otherwise a stud DE or OLB with an attitude.

Stay at 4 and get RGIII if he falls, otherwise get Blackmon or claiborne (in that order if available) OR trade down and get us a stud LB or left side DE.

Sometime around the 3rd, pick up a RT who will start day 1 for us.
