    I'm delighted with the Bitonio pick. big, tough, smart, high character, quick feet, can play anywhere

    along the line, loves the game, athletic, powerful, quick punch....Huge upgrade to the locker room

    and the field... same drafting type for the Browns.

      Sounds like a pretty good guy. Am I the only one who feels like Justin Gilbert is not getting the respect he deserves. The guy was our #1 pick and his name isnt even in the top 5 of the threads. I just think it is sad to see.

        i don't think it's a big deal. we all know where the accolades fall when it comes to playing the game of football. we hardly ever hear from JT or phil taylor etc. the celebrity spotlight will always be on the guys the run throw and catch the ball.

        you know the pretty boys.

          You mean like us? 😎

          Speaking of pretty boys... Bitonio has Tom Brady's eyes... weird.

            was very impressed with everyone on that vid.

            liked pettine. think he's a perfect fit for cleveland. no nonsense, not an over-thinker and tough as nails.

            all the rookies were very humble and come off smart and determined.

            man i thought i had some strong shoulders, did you see desir's ready to pop out of that shirt?

            damn G.

                    I for one, am more excited about the Gilbert pick than I am any of the others. Well... Desir as well. I love the idea of a revamped secondary and feel that rather quickly, it's going to help this team to a few victories this season that we normally wouldn't have had hope of seeing in the recent past.

                    As per the schedule, I still only have the Browns going 6-10 this year. But that's per the tough start and giving the guys some time to acclimate themselves as a team and to the NFL.

                          Ya. Well this was in 1977-1978. Living on a ship when it going thru an overhaul is like living in a steel mill. They had the oil rigs that looked like buildings off the coast. A couple of good Vietnamese bars we used to hang out at.

                            Someone else mentioned talking about Bitonio some more and it got me thinking about questions I had in regards to his particular position. With Thomas as the LT, does that mean Bit is automatically taking the RT position? What about the guards? I know we need help there as well. After I read articles where he said "I'll play whatever position the Browns want me to.", I took it he's a versatile guy that can play anywhere on the line?

                            Just curious to know if they have a plan yet here, particularly for our new RB core...

                              As of right now, they are having him beef up the left guard spot. That left side is gonna be fun to watch.
