ATENEARS Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Dane Sanzenbacher is a crafty receiver with a great attitude that could contribute in the slot at the next level. He lacks ideal speed and suddenness, but he is a very savvy route runner that uses a variety of fakes to set up defensive backs. He has great hand eye coordination and makes difficult catches look easy. He is not going to get consistent yards after the catch, but he is fearless over the middle and very effective at moving the chains. Sanzenbacher is a very good football player and a coach's dream that will likely be a third day pick. There's our Brian Brennan, when we need to move the chains. Grab him late, or hope he goes as an undrafted FA, and invite him in (once that's allowed, again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FearTheRoo Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 I'm sure it has nothing to do with him being from Ohio State... Come on, there are plenty of much better receivers in the draft, you can't just want a guy because of the school he's from. I'm an Akron fan but I'm not saying we should take Jeremy Lefrance, you have to think of what's best for the Browns. It shouldn't matter if the guy's from OS or even Michigan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob806 Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Damn Stan, I got blasted for posting that very same thing here after the Sugar Bowl. Sanzenbacher isn't going to be a game breaker, but I bet he has a decent career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoorta Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Not another Robiskie!! Exactly- we already have a slow possession receiver on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawgTracker Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 I think that if most of the people on this board had watched Sanzenbacher play they would love to get him late in the draft. There is another late round/free agent possibility at WR and that is Valentino out of Dayton. Dayton hasn't had a guy drafted for fourty years I think but this guy is small and could be a shifty receiver in the west coast offense. IF you really want a dark horse guy to look for Valentino is it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClevelandSound Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 He reminds me of Jurevicius, but he wont be there late 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Buffalo Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 hell the way that the draft is going it looks like we could still have Homan there at our pick in the 7th lol. I think either Sanz, Harvey, Homan, or another cool option could be there at 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. T Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Out of 26 WR's taken he is ranked higher than atleast 7 WR's that were taken. I would spend a late round on him, he is a team player and will be your Rudy that every team needs. And he is a hell of a lot more talented than Rudy.

Zombo Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 You guys are under-selling Robiskie. He came on zstrong late last year, I see him as a fixture moving forward. Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsympathetic Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 The Browns should target him as one of the UFA's for camp - if he's the fifth wide receiver, that'd be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roach Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Without a doubt, you have to bring this guy in to camp. We need WR help, badly and he may be able to produce ala Brian Hartline for the Dolphins. He's a very similar player to Hartline. More so than in comparison to Robo. In the old world, when you brought in an undrafted player you signed him to some sort of try-out contract and he got paid. That's why there was always a frenzy to go after certain guys- you wanted to sign them into your camp. i wonder if/how that will work with the lockout and the lack of free agent activity. Anyone hear anything about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browns Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I have some questions about Sanzenbacher since I didn't watch OSU very much this year: Is he afraid to go over the middle? Will he go all out on every play no matter the score or time? Does he catch everything? Can he jump? Do you think he will turn into a Robiskie type player or a Larry Fitzgerald type player? Will he complain about little stuff? Can he block? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Mike Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I agree....he is very similar to Brennan & a TOTAL Team & clutch player. I will be very disappointed if we don't give him a look. PLEASE Browns??!! Bring him in!!! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he go all out on every play no matter the score or time? Does he catch everything? Can he jump? Do you think he will turn into a Robiskie type player or a Larry Fitzgerald type player? Will he complain about little stuff? Can he block? He is a fearless receiver who will go over the middle and a lunch pail go to work guy. He will go all out all the time. I'm on my phone or I would link a block he had on a michigan player where he blocked him for 25+ yards on a boom herron 99 yard td (he got called for holding but it wasn't). He has very good hands rarely has any drops was osu mvp this year. He is an average jumper more of a route runner than anything. You can't compare him to either fitz or robo. Ultimate team player will not complain just show up and play. He can block as noted above. I know the players for osu are clearly biased but not a single one can believe he wasnt drafted. And a sentiment shared by most is he is a warrior on field and off whether its a game or practice and "He'll make it" -numerous buckeyes via twitter. Edited: Got a youtube link 1:14 going across middle 2:04 catching ball away from body when he could be laid out (bad throw by Pryor)3:50 is the block. Now it may not impress a lot of you because its not a knock him out but I loved it cause he never gave up on the play and just kept blocking all the way to the endzone. Even his nickname among players a dawg the Great Dane.

bjh2130 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Here is a complete highlight video for dane watch specifically 2:15 to 3:05 to see the kids heart determination and willingness to go over middle I know he isn't much of a yac guy which we kinda need but this guy will make a team very happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjh2130 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I said I was biased and I acknowledge that but as far as me answering the guys question can you tell me where I exaggerated on anything. Clearly he is a kid with heart and everything about is football skills are there. He just doesn't have the measureables and athleticism. I am actually very suprised he ran sub 4.5.

miktoxic Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 i can't believe that we fans are nit-picking shit about a guy that we might draft in the last round. if speed and zip were the factors that we are discussing about one of the last players in the draft then we should really check ourselves. i say give everyone one of these kids a chance not just him. you never know when you find that diamond in the ruff. i.e wes walker, brian brennan, etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjh2130 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Oh no doubt there are plenty of other guys I want to bring in to give a shot as well.

Unsympathetic Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Hartline and Largent were both drafted in the fourth. Sanz was not drafted. Browns still have the guy drafted late last year who has not seen the field yet. He should be ready before Sanz. UFA's cannot be signed until the lockout is over.
