Well, by the time you're 0-9 let alone 0-16 it is the off-season.
Unrealistic, but really solid draft effort there... really foundational stuff... and a pair of Kings might take down the pot.
They got a name on it now? Back in the day it was just a place we could go where they never asked for an ID and as long as you didn't cause any trouble the county sheriff might have one with you. We just called it that beer joint over in Snook.
"The Bird" was the nickname in the 90's for the bar right on University in College Station. Actual name was "The Dixie Chicken". It was the official, ring-dunking establishment of the Corps.
-
I know, it seems unrealistic, but realistically; if we own say, the number one overall selection and let's give the eagles a... #7 selection, we could trade down multiple times with both picks! I don't think that's ever been done before. We can't win a game but can kill the shit out a draft.
-
The Kings of Cleveland.
Has a nice ring to it. Shades of the past.
The more I think about it... Is Mitch Trubisky or any another player a once in a lifetime player?
Because what the Browns could walk away with if they were able to pimp the shit out the draft could be a once in a lifetime opportunity. If it was Peyton Manning, Andrew Luck, or maybe Derrick Carr, but if there is even a little doubt... "I've got one first round pick, do I hear two? I've got two first round picks, do I hear three? Going once, I've got three. I've got Three first round picks, do I hear four? ..."
I wish it were me that got to make that call. This could get interesting. There's a couple different paths to choose from where we go from here.

Interesting take. That could get fun indeed. Surely with 6 first rounders we'd hit on someone. Lol

Here ya go, Ag...
Browns have 'astronomical grade' on Texas A&M's Myles Garrett, per source
Adam Schefter ESPN Senior Writer
As the 0-12 Cleveland Browns get closer to clinching the No. 1 overall draft pick, there is a real chance that the team will not use its top selection on a quarterback.
The Browns have what one source close to the situation described as an "astronomical grade" on Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett, a blue-chip prospect who could dramatically upgrade Cleveland's defense. The Browns are enamored with Garrett, according to the source.
Then again it is Schefter...

Despite being hampered by an injury all year, he's played with one hell of a motor. That, coupled with his eventual athleticism uptick, is very promising.

Interesting. I think he is the kind of player that can refill the empty seats if they build that defense around his skills. I hope Schefter's source is a good one. Denver fans certainly get charged up by Von Miller. And like Miller his presence can affect every play whether he gets the QB or not, as long as there are others on the team to complement his level of play. The Browns can do that in one draft with what is already on the roster. And if they let some of those D players up for new contracts (like Collins) know they plan to draft him, I think we retain them all. These guys want to be on a D that makes a difference. It's why Ware (and others) signed on with Denver. And you know my bias, build a great D and you are back in the playoffs.

You take Myles and put him where you want him.....great players dont need "systems" to be great.....they just get it done...
Garrett has been my choice since last year.....and that aint changing.....
If the Browns trade out of the opportunity to select him.....they will hit 11 plus on my stupid meter....(which goes to 10)

Like the draft, but someone will have to explain to me why we need McCaffrey with Duke on the roster.

I don't see first down runner in his future. Too skinny.
