On Record Draft Selection
-
So i'll go on offical record for the first round and throw out a guess as the 2nd round player we take.
With the fourth pick in the draft the Cleveland Browns select Trent Richardson RB Alabama, I hate to even utter those words because i want J.Black like no other Cleveland fan understands. The reason we take T.Rich is the hole that our rbs can't fill at all with the departure of Hillis, the History of Hardesty, and the minimal production of obbly goobly gobller the smart choice for the west coast offense would be to select the next projected Darren Sproles in T.Rich. I'll go on record and say we select him even with a draft day trade down we will stay with T.Rich where ever we select.
With the twentysecond pick in the draft the Cleveland Browns select Kendall Wright WR Baylor. The Browns feel with the talent at WR in this years draft and having a second pick in the first round they can look over Blackmon and still fill in a number one WR in the first, with all this said talent at this position i really believe the Browns will look at the benefits of bringing in a player like Wright to compliment G.Little/Momass as the 2s if the Browns can utilize Evan Moore this year look to see a vastly improved offense barring any bonehead coaching decisions (which we can all expect)
Those are the two players i think we take exactly in the first round. I have some thoughts in the 37th pick but i am not sold on where they might lean depending whos off the board, i truly believe the browns would select a Linebacker here personally would love to see Burfict but i haven't thought out past 22 so we'll see.
Go on record with your guys picks so you can brag if you called it exactly like it played out.

Did you compare T Rich to Darren Sproles??

Pick 4 Blackmon
Pick 22 Hill or Floyd
Lets go WR,WR

Google is your friend, type in Trent Richardson the next Darren Sproles i wrote every single article for every website, and i am the guy on every national radio show who said the same thing Jim Rome Mike and Mike, Skip Bayless etc and so on i am everyone because my power spans that far.
Hey guys its 2012 i expect you all know how to research using the internet, or are able to afford stations like ESPN on TV, or have access to a radio for sports shows.

First we aren't taking two WRs. We'll be lucky to take 1 in the first round.
Sproles!? How many tackles does Sproles break? Darren Sproles doesn't have the size, strength and balance to bounce off tacklers like Richardson.
I think he's A bigger faster Emmitt Smith that happens to be from the same town, same High school and he's the same size 5'9''. If he fights for yardage at the next level like Emmitt Smith did- he will be just as good if not better.

Ok I took your condescending advice and found nothing. That is a horrible comparison. They are literally two totally different backs. I must be missing something...
-
Richardson
Mercilus
Alshon
-
4) Richardson
22) Wright or Hill
-
claiborn then floyd
-
First pick: Richardson.
#22: Floyd/Wright. I don't think Hill will be taken since Heckert bases most of his decision making on game film. Mercilus could also be taken here. Both Heckert and Shurmer on on record saying they really like him.
#37: I would say some RT, WR if we take Mercilus in the first. I honestly couldn't pin point what though.

Hate to be the bad guy, but the Browns are trading out of the number 4 pick, they want to stay in the top 8. The Dolphins offered there second round pick already. The Browns are looking for a deal like the one they got last yr. I would bet everything I have except my daughter that we trade out of that pick. We will not get Blackmon or Trent. Look for the Browns getting someone like Ingram or Floyd at number 8, thats were I think the Browns will draft. There is a very small chance Richerson drops to 8 but doubt it.
The Browns are in talks with the Bucs right now about the 4th pick as well as the Jags..But almost 100% they do not draft at 4. This should be no shock to anybody

I'm assuming you are comparing them purely based off of size and their relatively similar 40 times (depending on which source you believe), because that's about where the comparison stops.
Sproles is a slash runner, a real "shake and bake" guy. He has strong cuts and a tremendous ability to change direction, hence his placement as a punt/kick returner. For someone of his diminutive stature, Sproles is considered unusually strong, but he's nowhere near what you would consider Richardson.
Richardson is a power runner, with slightly above average quickness for someone as bulky as he is, but no top end speed. He won't be returning punts or kicks any time soon.
Sproles is more like Josh Cribbs, whereas Richardson would be Peyton Hillis.

I agree with you. I would be shocked to see us keep the 4.
My dream scenario at this point would be ...
Buc's want Claiborne and we bluff them into think we are going to take him ... swap picks and pick up there second rounder
Then the Jags/Rams want Blackmon we bluff them and swap and take there second rounder
Phins want Tannehill ... we bluff them and grab there second
We pick at 8 and grab T Rich or whoever Heckert wanted all along and add 3 top 10 second round picks
Probably won't unfold that way, but I would feel much better about the lack of activity during free agency.

Source to the fact that the Dolphins already offered their 2nd or bullshit.

Richardson doesn't have top end speed, but he is still faster than most RB. His game speed 40 was timed at 4.52 by sports science and topped at 19mph. That's during a game with pads on. He also might not have elite quickness but good quickness for how big he is and he does have Elite agility.

i know we need a running back but why draft one so high when can literally find a RB unsigned.

Based on this I'm pretty sure you are in fact the Omniscient Ass-Hat known as Jim Rome...
Sproles!? How many tackles does Sproles break? Darren Sproles doesn't have the size, strength and balance to bounce off tacklers like Richardson.
Maybe what "Jim" was saying is TR won't be breaking any tackles at the next level...
Ok I took your condescending advice and found nothing. That is a horrible comparison. They are literally two totally different backs. I must be missing something...
I did... you had to use Googles "Literal" advanced option on the entire phrase. Buried wa-a-a-a-y down the hit list...
can I say Ingram / Floyd one more time???claiborn then floyd
No?

OK, Claiborne / Floyd...

The Dolphins offered there second round pick already.
The Browns are in talks with the Bucs right now about the 4th pick as well as the Jags..
But almost 100% they do not draft at 4. This should be no shock to anybody
Not that I disagree with the trade down's likelihood, but how do you know who's offered us what???
