    Drafting someone with the TEs who are already on the team would work out just fine. Getting Clay would have been nice but it isn't a major pressing matter.

    As someone said, moving on: still decent that the Browns could pursue:

    Tony Moeaki or Zach Miller, both currently with Seahawks

    Jacob Tamme currently with Denver.

    I would say Jermaine Gresham...but it seems he has back issues. Those might be a troubling as Cameron's concussion issues.

    But, yea, the draft may be the place we get a TE.

    Basically, Clay got Jimmy Graham and Julius Thomas type money. He's a good blocker but he's not as good as Jordan Cameron who basically leaked he had signed with the Browns to get the Dolphins to offer more. I hope the Bills and Dolphins stink this year.

    DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD!

    I thought the bet was a playoff appearance?

    Clay lost to Bills. Now Jacob Tamme signed by Falcons, that leaves Gresham, Tony Moeaki, and Zach Miller as only average or above TEs on the market.....and there is no rumor about any of them coming to Browns.

    That means, to me, that a 1-2-3rd rounder could be used at the TE position.

    On a TE? You're certifiable.

    First and second round: DL/OL.

    Third round: QB [Petty/Grayson]

    Fourth: LB/S

    FIfth, perhaps.. and there's MANY serviceable TE's in this draft. Heuerman was never used properly at OSU, Saxton is a mismatch, etc.

    IMO i'd pick a TE higher than a WR only because they are more responsible in an offensive scheme that features the run/pAP.

    no, i wouldn't go first round UNLESS there was a gronk or graham out there.

    williams and funchess fit the bill but they are not 12 or 19 caliber players.

    I said that they would take a TE in the first three rounds......probably the third. But no, I don't think there is one for them in round one.

    I mean.....is there a K2 out there worthy of the 12th/19th (let alone 6th) pick? 😉

    Gronk wasn't Gronk when he was drafted. Coming off a back injury, we wasn't selected until the second round. You need to look at what a guy can become and if you can get him there with an NFL lifestyle. Guys can get really strong and improve a lot from college with the right coaching and training. I say take Maxx Williams with the 19th pick, or with a slight trade down after accumulating more picks for next draft~.

    See my just posted thread about next year's draft. I don't know that they need that many more picks.....unless they are all packaged to move up to get a Superstar QB.

    But then, I believe some of those compensatory picks can't be traded.

    Just to clarify...the Dolphins have declined to match the offer, so Clay is 100% in at Buffalo now.....

  • The GipperT The Gipper wrote on

    Both Jacob Tamme and Tony Moeaki FA TEs just signed with the Falcons.

    All the prime FA TEs are off the board now...with the possible exception of Zach Miller.

    Beyond that, I guess we could sign retread like Kellen Davis or his ilk...who we already cut once.

    No, the draft is the way. Hell, the Browns might go the route that the Pats did a few years back when they picked both Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernanez in the same draft. (but let's leave the homicidal tendencies out)

    They aren't going to spend the first three picks on DL/OL.

    One? Definitely. Two? Probably? Three? Nope.

    Might have been thinking Front 7/OL... that is very possible.

    Because our OLB is really gonna be a DE....so I can see us drafting 1) DT/NT.....2) DE(as OLB).....3) OL....
