    Will the Browns take TE Tyler Eifert at #6? Todd McShay seems to think so in his latest mock draft.

    Jeez., if that's a highlight video then I see nothing that warrants #6 overall... not even close. He looks like the type of guy you take in the 2nd or 3rd rounds. BUT, I have seen other tape and his stat lines which make this guy seem worth a 2nd round pick. It is simply his measurables that have teams at the middle-to-bottom of the first drooling. #6 would be a ridiculous reach for this guy, as there is far better talent in the draft. If we could trade back, and use a 2nd rounder on him then fine, but McShay is out of his mind with this one...

  • He's big as hell, I'll give him that. He'd be a great target for a jumpball in the endzone for sure. But spending the #6 overall on a TE? I don't know about that one. I'd rather spend it on a CB, FS or a LB...

  • Peter King has us trading with the Chargers and picking up their 2nd round pick and exchanging first rounders. Then has us taking Geno Smith at #11. I also just listened to Mike Mayock talking about the draft and he said he would be concerned taking Smith after watching him play his worst game of the season in the bowl game in the cold weather. His 2nd worst game of the year was against Iowa State also in bad weather. He never he mentioned the Browns as a team looking for a QB in this years draft.

    I certainly hope that Mayock is correct and not King. I don't want a QB early....lets see what Weeden can do with Chud and Norv.

    I really think that some of these commentators don't do their homework. It would be the fucking goddamn dumbest thing for the Browns to use their first round pick in two successive years on QBs.

  • First Pick Sharrif Floyd

    Second Pick Honey Badger

    Third Pick E J Manuel or Landry Jones

    Fourth Pick Boyce TCU

    After that whomever is best on the board

  • Newest rumor is that the Browns are TRADING UP to #3 with Oakland to draft Ansah.... If this happens, I will NOT be pleased...

    Plus, possibly trading 5th rounder to Mia for WR Bess...

  • If they draft Geno Smith I'm just gonna quit watching pro football. That'll be the last straw I believe. It's all really starting to wear me down.

    I think we will trade down for more picks before taking Smith (or any other QB this year) in the first round.

    I have my hopes up for Manuel in the 2nd(if we can pick up 2nd Rd)/3rd.

    The Ansah part to me seems a bit smoke-screenish.

    You would think that trade-up would be made to nab Dion Jordan, right before he falls to Philly.

    But this this is being said through a media informed fan.

  • Adam Schefter is reporting that both Dee Milliner and Dion Jordan are expected to open training camp on the PUP list.

  • Yeah Milliner has had what? 6 surgeries? Hasn't missed many games but torn both shoulders... same injury as Jordan.

  • Hopefully we'll draft CB/S in 3 and 4. Slay looks good for round 3, Swearinger/Rambo should be there in round 4.

    So, to spite me Banner will draft a guard from Valdosta State in round 3 that every other team had rated as an undrafted free agent.

  • 🙁 I wanted either Milliner, Eifert, or Warmack in the 1st round but we took Mingo who isn't a bad pick.

    🙂 I think we might be trading Sheard for a 2nd round pick because he isn't a linebacker. If we get a 2nd round pick I want the Stanford TE or a cornerback. The safety Jonathan Cyprien wouldn't be bad either. Zach Ertz would be a great pick for Weeden.

    3rd round- TE- Travis Kelce Cincy, FS- Phillip Thomas Fresno St., CB- Logan Ryans- Rutgers

    4th round- TE- Vance McDonald-Rice, G- Hugh Thornton-Illinois, ILB- Kiko Alonso-Oregon, CB- Leon McFadden-San Diego St., Qb- Zac Dysert- Miami, Oh

    5th round- TE- Nick Kasa-Colorado, T- Reid Fragel- Ohio St.,G- JC Tretter-Cornell,OLB- Travis Long- Wash St., CB- Brandon McGee-Miami Fla, CB- BW Webb-William & Mary

    6th round- Mike Golic Jr- G- Notre Dame, K- Dustin Hopkins- FSU, K- Quinn Sharp- Okl. St.P- Jeff Locke-UCLA

    🙂 I hope we get one of these TE's because we really need one! Go Browns!!!!! 😎

    👍

  • 🙂 Does anyone think the Browns will try and get into the 2nd round?

    🙂 How about trading Jabaal Sheard to the 49ers for the Chiefs 2nd round pick and grabbing Zach Ertz the TE from Stanford?

    Why would the 49er's want Sheard? We would be lucky to get a 2nd round pick for him from a 4-3 team. We wouldn't get much for him from a 3-4 team. Those guys have even less of an idea about what he can do at OLB than we do.

    Ruining threads since 1897.

  • 🙂 OK a bad example so how about a 4-3 defensive team? I just think if Sheard is being shopped arround I hope we can get a 2nd round pick for him.

  • Sheard has got something like 15 sacks over 2 rounds a 4-3 DE, right? Assuming he carries on making 7-8 sacks per season, surely that's worth a second rounder to someone?

    I'd rather take a shot at Kelce in the third if he's there.

  • We added two TE's in FA and already had three on the roster.

    I don't see TE as being a big draft need in the FO's eyes.

    Yea I agree, if we stay where we're at with T.E. we'll be OK. Smelley can also fill in at T.E. We have far bigger needs over T.E. IMO but if we do get one in the 5th 6th or 7th rd. I'll be OK with it.

    IMO 3rd and 4th rd. should address C.B. and Saftey, any other position in those 2 RDS.will dissapoint me.

    !!!!hopefully i'll be alive when it happens!!!!
