Because Browns fans sent Quinn, Weeden, McCoy et al into oblivion?
No, they went into oblivion because they sucked.
He needs to impress the coaching staff and the decision makers upstairs, not us.
They understand his experience level.
Fuck you for blaming the Browns fan base, loser.
And fuck you for premade excuses.
Johnny is going to rock and roll.
Go root for Osweiler, Assclown.

I love you too Z.
But just admit that without a running threat there is one hand tied behind him. But then he has had that since HS so like you, I expect he will show enough that the knowledgeable fans here will see it despite that handicap. Now if we also play him at corner and we fail to win, then ship him out.

I will tell you the same thing I told Vagitron when he didn't want to make his bet unless there was an injury clause ... don't be such a pussy.
We have not had a running game all year, yet both quarterbacks have played well, and I expect that to continue.
It's OK ... your little Johnny is going to swim in the big boy pool now, let go of his arm and let him sink or swim.

Osweiler Assclown...sounds like a ringer...lol

I would only argue that....
1) Its way way too early on Erving and Shelton.....
2) While they arent "immediate impact" players, can you name someone who was taken AFTER them that was an impact player?...
(here's a chance to go cherry pick the one guy who was.....if there is one.......)
Seriously tho.....are we gonna blame the GM for missing out on something that wasnt actually there to begin with.....?
1) See my comment below about Shelton & Erving.
2) If we're going to give Farmer a flyer on the 2015 draft due to a thin draft class, we would also have to apply that same philosophy to Banner/Lombardi for the Mingo pick.
I didn't say they were a bust, but they just don't strike me as a standout player.
Could those 2 become standout players...yes.

Yep....I always have......2013 is one of the worst draft classes ever.......and every GM has taken heat for that year, yet there was no one good to pick....(esp if you were picking LB)
Id say Mingo is arguably still the best LB from that class...he's at least in the convo.....

Don't forget the Bills.But....the Cowboys get Romo back. Whoopdeefuckingdoo.
And who is starting for the Tits? Is Mariota out or is he back.
And in Philly you probably have Mark Sanchez.
And have the Jets figured anything out?
There may be more teams with worse QB situations than you thought.
How about this scenario....Manziel plays well the rest of the year and the defense still manages to lose every game.
IF, the Browns have the number 1 pick in the draft and doesn't feel the need for a QB, just think of the trade offers that will come our way?
Yet again, if Farmer is still GM....never mind.
Don't forget the Bills.

If Manziel plays well, why exactly would it be a bad thing that Farmer is GM?
Just because he didn't draft the guys you wanted?
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -
Again, not sure Farmer is the problem......though his record isn't good. DC is the major problem on this team.....or HC if the DC is just running the HC's system.....which is a suck ass system.
Farmer has had 4 first round picks, none of them have been impact players and my confidence in him is shot.

Oh no! Your confidence! How will we live?

He hasn't really hit it out of the park with his other first picks.....now has he?If Manziel plays well, why exactly would it be a bad thing that Farmer is GM?
It's not about the guys I wanted, it's about nailing 1st round picks. Take a look at what the Vikings and Rams have drafted in the 1st round over the last few years. Farmer should take notes.Just because he didn't draft the guys you wanted?

You are right.....that 2013 has been a very underachieving draft overall. The best picks, believe it or not, may have been two RBs: Levon Bell and Eddie Lacy (now both on the shelf with injuries or underperformance.
the Browns best pick was 7th rounder Armonty Bryant.
The Best QBs....even now: Geno Smith, EJ Manuel, and Mike Glennon.
An ugly draft.

Without a clear-cut, slam-dunk QB prospect, the price will not be all that high. And FYI, regardless of how JM finishes, if there was such a prospect, we would take him.
What kills me right now is that it won't be terribly easy to grade Johnny Manziel with the team as a whole playing so poorly. I mean, if we're giving up 30 points a game, I don't know many second year qb's that are going to pull out the win.
Another already pointed it out, but W/L is not the basis for evaluating QB.
For all the questioning of our staff, their evaluation and "handling" of JM to this point has been spot on. There is no reason to expect that to change the remainder of 2015.
I would only argue that....
1) Its way way too early on Erving and Shelton.....
2) While they arent "immediate impact" players, can you name someone who was taken AFTER them that was an impact player?...
(here's a chance to go cherry pick the one guy who was.....if there is one.......)
Do they play "impact positions"?
As for later picks... point taken... pretty slim pickings. Nonetheless cases could be made for:
Vikes' Kendricks (ILB, R2) and TJ Clemmings (OT, R4) and Stephon Diggs (WR, R5). Vikes had a helluva draft.
A couple other later OL stepped right into starting roles: KC's Morse (OG, R2) and DNV's Sambraillo (LT, R2).
Biggest impact might be Yeldon (R2) on TB's run game... day 1 starter, 14th in rushing and the leading rookie not named Gurley.
