Did Farmer actually go to the combines this year?

The Browns Board

  • Last year he phoned it in like buying clothes from Haband. Looks good on paper but really shitty when you get the real product. You can't draft sight unseen.

    In contention for the dumbest post of the year?

  • "dumbest" being a polite word....

  • considering the OP only knows football from playing madden he's right on point.

  • Gotta win something!!!

  • Nope, no Browns were there at all, with the only exception being the homeless guy that Jimmy sent.

  • Gotta win something!!!

    As in winning the dumbest post of the Year award? Well you are a competitor.

  • Despite all the yiping, it is a legitimate question: did the Browns have a significant presence at the combine?

    While I agree with the contention that the combine is just a dog and pony show, and that to evaluate a player it is far far better to "watch the tape", I do think the interviewing process....the "getting to know you" process is important and that someone from the Browns should be there to conduct that.

    Saw Pettine there multiple days so the answer is yes. Also saw Farmer but don't recall which day or days. Here are interviews at the combine.

  • You forgot Haslam, Ag. He was there Day 1. 😮

    As for seeing Framer... It's good he's there, but not seen. There's no better opportunity to get face time with his peers and figure out what deals are out there. A lot better use of his time than watching a lineman run a 5.4 40...

  • While Combines are getting more comfortable and sophisticated, I see Ray Farmer as more of an SUV guy than an Combine guy.

    But he needs to be a Combine guy....because he needs to make some hay, not just muck around in the mud.

  • If he needs to make hay he needs a tedder, rake, or go old school with a sickle bar mower on a Farmall M with tricycle gear.....

  • i guess everyone is blind if they didn't see our OL coach on the FIELD while they were running drills.

    you know the guy wearing the brown orange and white jacket with a brown's helmet logo on his chest?

    Did the jacket have the new logo or the old logo or did it have one of the "leaked new logos" that we read about here for weeks on end from the uniform fags?

  • I believe he simply communicated via text message

    Baler. Need a square or round baler. Our old JD square baler runs excellent, and the kicker punts those

    bales for field goals most of the day, unless I turn too quickly, or it happens to jam up.

    yep, to his scouts, which is what they get paid to do: be at the combine and scout.
