OSU Kid Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think one of the biggest items people are missing is the track record we have for NFL experience on this current team, it is such a big key to having leadership . There is a huge disparity in having a good nucleaus that remains together and builds a good foundation of winning. All the coaching changes really hurt this process and I think sometimes gets lost in the shuffle. I compared players that have been with the Browns for at least 5 years vs the same for the Steelers. Very pathetic difference between the two especially on Defense and certainly no coincidence in the results of each franchise. This needs to change. Browns Phil Dawson - 12 years Ryan Pontbriand - 7 years Josh Cribbs - 6 years Lwrence Vickers - 5 years D'Qwell Jackson - 5 years Steelers Hiens Ward - 13 years Aaron Smith - 12 years Casey Hampton - 10 years Brett Keisel - 9 years Chris Hoke - 9 years James Farrior - 9 years Larry Foote - 8 years Troy Polamalu - 8 years Ike Taylor - 8 years James Harrison - 7 years Max Starks - 7 years Ben Roethlisberger - 7 years Heath Miller - 6 years Willie Colon- 6 years Chris Kemoeatu - 6 years Charlie Batch - 6 years Trai Essex - 6 years Bryan McFadden - 5 years Antwan Randel El - 5 years Anthony Madison - 5 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisky fringo Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 i thought Thomas and Wright would be entering their 5th and possibly Steiny too. ? still a well illustrated point tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddybull1 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Once again I ask (point out), where are our #1 draft choices from the past 10 years... Most #1 choices are signed for 5 or 6 years yet our roster has few of them left...In fact, most of our #1 choices are out of football... When you get to 2nd and 3rd round picks it's just as bad if not worse... The one area of the new regime that has me optimistic is Heckert.. His track record is pretty good at evaluating talent... Our record for drafting is probably the worst in the NFL.... Peace T.Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miktoxic Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 as much as most of us despise the steelers........they kick our ass in all facets of the game, not only on the field but off the field in their front office. who wants to play for the browns? most players when they hit free agency look for a team that they might win a championship with and a team with stability. meaning thgey don't have learn a new system under a new coach every two years. hey lerner and holmgren, take some notes!
