    Ward will be a great CB

    Would have rather traded down, but Ward would have been the player I wanted most

    LOL-You just wanted a CB so Randall can go to FS and Peppers to SS where he belongs

    Exactly one draft pick filled three needs you let Randall play his natural position free safety where he's better than peppers you let Peppers play his natural position at strong safety where he's far better off than he was last year closer to the line and you bring in Ward who is a better corner then Randall. 1 draft pick improve three positions

    👍

  • Well since we invested in Peppers in the first round it really really makes sense for him to play in the correct position

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

    I liked Derwin James a little more.. But, I'm not down on Ward.

    We don't need what Derwin is. We need a CB

    I'm not arguing that.. I just liked him... I'm not against taking Ward...

    Randall was going to FS regardless. Sheet, he's already there.

    One of our first offseason moves was to allow Pep to play in position

    I still remember the targetting penalty he was called for... Perfect play taken back by the refs.

    I always thought the Browns were a DB away.

    Tour may want to update his signature to read "DB is one of the hardest positions for a rookie to learn, he'll get better"

    Same dung we heard about Gilbert

    So Mo Hurst inside is in the cards?

    Love that idea, but medical/heart issue is too risky.

    Getting pressure on the QB makes the DBs jobs easier. In the top of the draft, excluding QBs, you take the best player, which is Chubb not Ward.

    Yep. He's a Suckeye though so all the nut homers are nutting themselves they got an OSU Retard.

    Me "neither".

    Most of us expected a fs like Minkah - but the Browns secondary has been arguably the worst in the NFL. Hue?/sassy sachi didn't see it. Dorsey sure did. TODD HALEY sure the hell did. How many times was it that the defense held an offense for three downs, and the offense laughed and just threw the ball for another first down?

        That is why both starting cb's will be gone, I suppose. Taylor was a weak link, and although I thought McCourty played well, he was traded.

        I was surprised at cb, since the cb  depth in the draft was nice.  But I LOVE the pick.

    1. He's an outstanding shutdown corner. The Browns have desperately needed another Hanford Dixon. They got him. Hanford was 5' 11". EDIT: Ward may be a sixteenth of an inch shorter - but NFL.com has him at 5' 11".

    2. Ward has 31 1/4 inch arms. That is a bit over the average I think. 4.32 forty, vertical jump 39", and  broad jump 136 ", folks - that is over eleven feet.

    3. Ward is outstanding in the smarts dept, instinctive bigtime, and plays the run fearlessly.

    4. Nfl.com has his grade at 6.31. That's very high. Immediate starter, imho - a future pro bowl corner.

    5. Outstanding character - Donte Jackson and Ward both took part in a youth clinic - loves the game...

      That's my take - the Browns just got their "Hanford Dixon". I won't be surprised if they draft another cb.

  • Going to agree with Cal on this one. The best corner in the draft and like Woody says will free up Peppers to play where he should be playing. Which will add at least a little credibility to Sashi Browns consensus pick.

  • Love the Ward pick. We needed the shutdown CB far more than another DE. Now get Hurst to provide the inside pressure that Shelton didn't. A D-line of Garrett, Ogunjobi, Hurst & Ogbah with Brantley will be nice & don't forget Mr Peppers.

    To say what? 

    I like Ward, needs to work on adding some strength though.  Not my ideal #4 pick and feel he could have been had lower but, much like Chubb, I feel he'll make a good pro.
