  • CB had issues...

    Don't like 1000 yd rushers???

    We'll draft a RB... just not in round 1... at least not at #4.

    I'm allowed not to like him.

    I don't like him.

    1,000 yard rushers can be found. Our last one was a throw-in in a trade for a busted QB. So, with 13 draft picks I like our chances of finding someone with far more tread on the tires than ol' Ced and about ten years younger.

    And more likeable to Zombo.

    Of course you're allowed to not like Cedric...

    You are also allowed to cut off your nose to spite your face...

    But I wouldn't recommend either...

    As evidenced by the stats Cedric HAS produced these past few season albeit he is a fumbling machine ala headcase Hillis...

    He is getting kind of long in tooth and it's unknown how much juice he has in the tank..

    Yea he has a problem with women and substance abuse but who are the Browns to hold out for a potential contributer based on his citizenship skills.

    In hindsight they should have got him last year when he was available.

    If he has some moves left like Cedric the entertainer I say send the club limo down to the Queen City and bring his outlaw ass to CBS.

It's not my fault you are clearly incapable of reading and comprehending what was actually written so you ran your mouth off like a buffoon.

  • If everyone is being honest with themselves. What is his bust/success line at. What ammount of yardage and td's does he need to get?

    OK- we draft Trent Richardson at #4- he had better have a career as good as Ladainian Tomlinson, who was drafted at #5. Anything less is under performing expectations. IMHO Peterson (the most recent high RB pick) won't get to that level due to injuries. Total bust would be Ki-Jana Carter, bust would be Cadillac Williams (#5 overall pick incidentally). Those saying Richardson absolutely can't miss had better re-think things.

    Incidentally, Tomlinson has zero Super Bowl rings. You just want a back that can crank out a couple 1,000 yard seasons- you don't need to spend the #4 overall pick on him.

    He likes that squishy feel they give him. Besides he lives in Naples and the daisy dukes are more palatable than his normal beach wear:

    I agree...I mean Joseph Addai has a ring correct?...A back like that is plenty serviceable I think.

    ^ in other words...a RB can contribute more by himself.....ie, given that the OL is common to both positions (and thus irrelevant to the discussion), a RB by virtue of teh position can have a greater impact, positively or negatively, than a WR. # of touches and handing the ball off...

    a WR's production, in contrast, is heavily dependent on the QB, and his ability to deliver the football. even the best WR will struggle with a QB that struggles. calvin had a few tough years until he got a QB...now he's unstoppable. blackmon may be a nice pick, but there's little doubt who would have a bigger impact of the 2

    Choco, so youd pick TR over Blackmon? I'm still struggling to decide. I dont have a doubt that Richardson will have the bigger impact early on. But I guess Im thinking more big picture like 3 years down the road. RBs just scare me off with the injury risks and the body's degradation.. I just dont seeing us consistently competing in the division within the next 2 seasons, sad I know, but I believe realistic. Our past regimes have just screwed us so bad thinking about the short term and not sustainability. For me, the play would be get our "franchise RB" next year or the year after, and work on having WRs now that really know the system and establish chemistry (although I dont expect McCoy to be the franchise QB either)..

    Benson on the cheap. Then draft Clairborne and then a Wright and an OT in round 2.

  • I can hear it now, with the 4th pick in the 2012 NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns select Trent Richardson Rb from The univeristy of Alabama. We may think its to early of a spot to take him, but when he dons that uniform and starts to produce for us, we will not give a rats ass about how early we picked him.
