Worthless opinion article based on no facts. Don't bother reading.

@brownb499 said:I don't think most cared if we shipped those guy's But when your plan to replace them involves Royals,Furrey,Patton,or Cribbs ? How solid was that ? Well, I think the plan was to simply clear the cap room. It makes you weaker this year, but who cares, the season is over. Meanwhile, they were probably thinking it was time to get rid of those guys and get draft picks for them while they still had remaining value.

Forgot to mention this team is a BAD JOKE

My thoughts are simple if this is the boring brainless offense mangini is going to install then lerner needs to hire a real coach next year..

he seems to get a lot of stingers these days. if the brass brought him in i'd be open to it though. i've never felt Pool was much of an upgrade over what he did here.

@kardiackid26 said:Which of the Rookies will contribute the most this season? I think Alex Mack will start at Center, MoMass will start opposite of B17 and James Davis will be handed the ball alot. James Davis has really impressed me and definately looks like a pro and a steal in the 6th round Cribss will be starting opposite of BE. MoMass is going to be the 4th WR.

This warranted its own thread considering the array of existing threads to which you could have added this?

If St. Clair starts at RT, expect the Vikings to move Jared Allen to LE on passing downs. Though St. Clair did an okay job for the Bears last year, he struggled mightily against Allen. In their two matchups, Allen notched 14 tackles, 4.5 sacks, and 2 TFL's. He'll be hard to contain, especially if Pat & Kevin Williams are allowed to play.

@shepwrite said:I still can't fathom passing on Sam Young. That guy is gonna be a player. We'll get him next year.

I take all of those late picks with a grain of salt. Frankly, it comes down to me (and 99% of us) wanting a guy for one reason or another...but not really knowing how they will project. We get worked up over us drafting this RB of the other...haha what do we know? We know what one guy wrote on a blog, forum, or in an article saying he has great potential... Gotta just trust our guys on this one I guess. When a guy's been passed on over 170 or so times...it just doesn't even matter anymore, ya know? Small chance they ever produce at a large level...but fun to hope.

I think that may be the first ever browns related post not involving derek anderson from lumbergh. simply amazin. set me back a couple steps

My roommate brought up a great point about this. Washington's FO was willing to dish out two first rounders for Ochocinco... Could this really happen?

28? Dont we want him falling to 36?

New York countered by offering the two draft picks and receiver Domenik Hixon for Edwards. Edwards is a huge assest with a large potential upside still, but... i say you sign Marvin Harrison AND/or Holt (one year deals) then do this deal. and hopefully you nab a young, talented and teachable WR. i think the trade is about even, and if you pick up one of the vets for a year, you could possibly come out on top.

@inspecta said:My wet dream is to keep edwards, somehow sign Holt and then draft crabtree. That would be a triple threat that would most definitely stretch defenses all over the place, defenses would not be able to put 8 in the box against us, and then Harrison and Jamal would be able to do their thing. After not scoring a TD in the last 6 games to me offense is the one thing we absolutely have to fix. We could address pass rushing in the 2nd rounds, especially if we trade DA for a 2nd. Then we could package both our 2nds to move back into one and get an impact player for defense. or just use all 3 2nd round picks and really load up. Either way. MY dream would be to trade Edwards get Hixon and draft Crabtree and sign Holt. Then take the #29 and draft English or Mathews and in the second round get either Delmas or Moore and a Center. Hell, since I'm dreaming, some team goes brain dead and takes Anderson and we get Jennings also.

AdaM said:Where do you think we're going to get a MLB? Davis and McGinnist are gone. CLE already replaced Davis by signing Barton. McGinest would be replaced by Orakpo, based on his mock. Plus CLE has Hall on the roster.

http://www.footballsfuture.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=311868 Could we possibly trade picks? They could get the 5th and we'd get the 9th along with a 2nd or 3rd.

@timugen said:Ya know, Ich....you have to be the most annoying, ignorant xxxx I've ever seen on a message board. You're all about neglecting the defense in this draft because your ancient ass is stuck in an era when one player on offense could take over a game. Jim Brown is retired. Otto Graham (God rest his soul) is lacing 'em up in a better place. The league is different now. You need a balanced team (i.e., offense AND DEFENSE) to be competitive. Brian Asshole and Trent Dildo each have one more Super Bowl ring than you do, and they sure as hell didn't get them by lighting up the scoreboard. We get your schtick - offense, playmakers, blah blah blah...... That doesn't change the fact that we have to address some serious areas of weakness on defense. Because in case you failed to notice, the other team is allowed to try to score TD's too, and it sure would be nice if we had some people who could stop them from doing so. And that, my friend, is 100% correctomundo. I would have to disagree. The offense has way fewer holes to fill than the defense. We have lost JJ, KW, Stall in the offense and we have only 2 picks. We can use one for Crabtree who is a safe pick and the next pick for an RB or LB (Chung hopefully) The defense needs some working out to do, but - of all the prospects mentioned only curry and Raji seem like safe bets and the rest are all projects or were not too impressive in the combine. Personally I would go with the safer pick. Even if we get this draft selection 100% right, we will still be no where near playoff contention.

I saw that, and posted somewhere...
