<p>I agree.  Teams that need a kicker usually start drafting them in round 4.  I'd even go as high as 3 if to get the right guy.  Once you get one it's not like you are going to need to draft another for maybe 15-20 years.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/476020</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/476020</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[ballpeen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 03 Feb 2015 23:09:40 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to "Browns won't target a WR in the first round" on Tue, 03 Feb 2015 20:46:03 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/westside-steve" aria-label="Profile: westside-steve">@<bdi>westside-steve</bdi></a> <a href="/post/475974">said</a>:</p><div>

<p>Just for the record the Browns have an all pro number one receiver. The team plays better when he is suspended. Another great reason not to cut him!</p>

<p>Why cut him?  If we keep him like you say, he will never see the field because he cannot stop making bad decisions.  He doesn't even own up to them, he has excuses.  Until then he is the most worthless all-pro receiver in the league.  Better to just be rid of him.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/475981</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/475981</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[BitchTits]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 03 Feb 2015 19:50:54 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to "Browns won't target a WR in the first round" on Tue, 03 Feb 2015 19:28:11 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/the-gipper" aria-label="Profile: the-gipper">@<bdi>the-gipper</bdi></a> <a href="/post/475963">said</a>:</p><p><span style="color:#800000">Since the Browns have 10 picks....I would definitely consider a kicker in like round 6-7.</span></p></blockquote>I was of course kidding about our first two pics but hey if you could get Adam Vinatieri, Sebastian Janikowski or Ray Guy, I'd be happy to spend a 4. or 5.
