2023 Browns NFL Draft Prospects
-
offhand, I love to find the "unknown" steals of the draft - from small schools.
I tend to imagine "they" won't notice some highly skilled kid from a small school, but of course, they eventually do everytime, even if they don't get an invite to the combine.
too bad, eh?
I think Rice and Peoples have my strongest keen interest, but I like every one of them. I would love to take a chance on Carter, but with no #1 or #2 now....
dammit.

Here's a WR from Princeton that might interest you Cal. His names is Andrei Iosivas and he stand 6'3" tall at 201lbs He ran a 4.43 forty at the combines and is currently projected to go between rounds 3 and 5.
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -
Look at this schedule from the 2013 Buffalo Bulls.

I'm not so sure I would draft Khalil Mack. Not too many difficult teams there, the NFL is too big a jump IMO.
.... Being a bit cheeky there, Tex. If you can ball, you can ball. Doesn't matter where you came from.

He is interesting - he needs some serious coaching. If I were deciding, I'd have a long sitdown with him and ask him how much he loves the game, find out about his character, loving to rise to his potential. He could become a real player in the NFL.
or , he languishes with no love for the game and ends out of football.
That is always an interest of mine - watching unheralded guys become bigtime NFL players. Some work at it every day, some never work at it. It's a gamble.

Yeah, he's a little raw but I think there's some upside the right consumer will tap. He tends to get a little too cozy with the body catches at times; but there's some nice catches with his hands. He just needs to work on the consistency and improve some at high pointing the ball. This video looks like he catches the ball when he's covered; but then again - Mack Wilson looked All Continent when we watched his greatest moments highlights.
My guess is a lot of his issues look like they come from inexperience. Looking at how excited he gets on film - it doesn't look like passion will be a problem. And hey, he can spell Princeton right or he'd be wearing an LSU uniform...

I love when cal comes over here and talks about how important integrity and character is to him, and how that disappears the second he clicks over to the Poliboard ?
It tickles the cockles of my heart. Hell, it might even tickle the sub-cockle part of my heart.

Put him on your list to watch over time and so will I. Just think he's not ready yet. Developmental player for a team with patience.

Been Busy.. Happy Easter !
List of small school favorites include.. Karl Brooks,Viliami Fehoko,Jose Ramirez & Dorian Williams..
The Browns pick ahead of Pittspuke in the 7th round.
Interesting, if a visiting team takes a 7th round flyer to avoid the UDFA route... Similar mold/metrics to
Okoronkwo, Ogbo Div.II Lane's-- DE Andrew Farmer (doesn't matter where ya come from// they'll find ya ?)

You are not the only one noticing him. Recently jumped 70 places to #127 on Draftek's BB. And that's about as late as he gets projected. Others already have him as a rnd 3 pick.
Similar players (on paper) projected to be available around that time are: Tank Bigsby (Auburn), Kendre Miller (TCU) and Kenny McIntosh (Georgia).
If none of those tickle your fancy, we may have to go the Isiah Pacheco late round gem route.
And they have moved Achane up to #49 (mid 2nd round), but in their mock draft have him going to Miami in the 3rd @ # 84 after the Browns pick in the DL. Very strange.

In most of the online mocks I've done so far, you see valued positions that are considered less deep being reached for. DT especially, but also O-line. Positions that are considered deep like Edge and WR tend to fall down the order.
In the case of RBs, they are not valued as much, and while only Bijan Robinson is considered elite, there are a good two dozen that could go anywhere from late day 2 to day 3. Fairly deep in that sense. I think that's why they fall down the order too.
Current watch(ed) list as of this morning.
RB - Deneric Prince - X UDFA
Roschon Johnson - * Day 3 (early?)
Zach Evans - X Day 3 (later)
Kendre Miller - X Day 3
Sean Tucker - * Late Day 2, early Day 3?edit: Adding Devon Archane per the last conversation
Devon Archane - * Day 3
X = pass
* = Willing to draft
May I ask why Sean Tucker pleases you? From what I've read, he is a speed back undersized in both height and frame, with good hands that make him a receiving option. Sounds like Demetric Felton 2.0 to me, and we already have 1.0 under contract. That's why I've regularly passed on him in my online mocks.

Off Topic: Hey guys I just posted a thread in the Barber Shop section and just wanted to mention it here where most of us click so it might get seen more.... Thanks in advance for looking and any insight you can give.

As long as you never phrase it like that again.
He's undersized in the fact that he isn't 5'11 225lbs. But he isn't undersized in the way of Felton. 5'9 3/4 and 210lbs is pretty solid. What I like
- Built low, runs low.
- Good burst, good top end. Decent lateral movement to win the edge.
- Shows some patience on the interior game
- Good hole press with his eyes, shoulders and feet.
- Ball security doesn't appear to be an issue.
- Quality hands in the screen and checkdown game, then turning it into YAC.
I don't see any elite qualities, but I see one's where I can get a productive back late that can handle all of the same responsibilities as Chubb on 10 to 12 touches. And the flashes of what I see indicate the more subtle nuances and tools of RB are there, meaning coach Stump will get the most out of those types of picks.

The Browns used a 3rd round pick #77 to draft RB Duke Johnson in 2015..combine 5'9' 209 lbs ran 4.54.. was not the most durable running inside.
Kareem Hunt was another 3rd round pick at #86. 5'10 216 lbs with a 4.62/40.. hair on fire, scared of nobody
Demetric Felton was the same combine height as Duke/ a tick slower at pro day 4.55 & only weighing in at 189 lbs... a 6th round pick
Jerome Ford was a 5th round pick at 5'10" 209 lbs that ran a 4.46..? next man up to get some reps
Beast Nick Chubb... 5' 11" 227 lbs moving at 4.52 ?
I'd like to see Berry stay at 5'10" / 2 bills plus lbs... 4th round or after

I'm fine with Ford being the next man up. Ford scored 20 TDs as the #1 prong of attack for a team team that made the BCS playoffs for the 1st time. I posted about this somewhere else and shared highlights of his final season at the U of Cincy. The guy he reminded me a lot of coming out of college is Kareem Hunt.

I don't care about the height so much. I do like speed with a thick build. In other words, a guy 5'8" can be 185 lbs. If a guy looks frail, he probably is.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
Ford also didn't get as much college usage as some of these multi-year starters even though he was just as high of a prospect. Hopefully Ford will have a longer RB career than others.

Zach Evans, RB Ole Miss.
Solid build, probably room for more quality mass. I like his straight line speed, has a little lateral shake to him, but not enough to gut anybody when he's met in a gap. A willing blocker if unspectacular and appears to catch well enough out of the backfield. At times I question his vision in both right to left cut flow and his eyes/anticipation to 2nd level defenders. I say that because he tends to cut late, hug almost too close to his blockers and either getting his footwork messed up, tripped or ending up in the back of his lineman. When he does, I give him credit for being strong, moving bodies, and fighting to gain positive yards; but that won't hold up at the NFL. Those late decisions, late recognition, will slow down his ability to get beyond the LoS taking less contact than what he should have. While he isn't as bad Deneric Prince, he still tries to go full zoom behind the LoS and losses his patience on multiple occasions, Also tends to run a bit high and in front of his pads... generally another sign of just wanting to sprint to the hole.
Can't see him as anything ahead of a mid to late Day 3 pick. I'd rather the Browns pass on him (for now)
-
Please don't ask that. He's been my favorite player since he got here. He's a throwback to the type of player that I grew up with. Score a great touchdown, hand the ball to the official. - Please don't do that to me.
you mean like this guy he either drops the ball or hands it to the ref oh if you do watch he is a two way player qb fb lb and has a 6th or 7th round draft status
you mean like this guy he either drops the ball or hands it to the ref oh if you do watch he is a two way player qb fb lb and has a 6th or 7th round draft status
again this guy played fb,lb,te a very versatile player that Berry likes to draft and would fit right in special teams oh and did i mention he could be are emergency qb ?
