cribbs is the man Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 We need a lot of DB help, and we have to go after a CB and FS in FA IMHO. We could also use help at WR, TE, G, ILB, and more OLB help. I still see at least one more big FA to fill one of those spots. As for the draft, I'm still thinking J.Jones, D.Jordan, or D.Milliner. I just can't see drafting a G at #6. However, we may be able to trade down 2 spots w/ BUF since they NEED to make sure they get their QB, after cutting Fitzpatrick. Then we could look at Patterson or Warmack at #8. Too early for all the speculating, but this is starting to get exciting!! So you won't pick Warmack at 6 but you will at 8?? With the rookie pay scale now they would make about the same. I'm not saying we should pick warmack(although I'm not against it) but I just don't understand that kind of logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise you look to a more important position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miktoxic Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 and from what i'm reading that means sheard or rubin might be on the trading block, which i don't like at all. stock piling LBs makes me think we'll go another direction with our first pick in the draft.

Browns57 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Nice pickup! If we sign a CB I am going to predict that we are going QB in the draft. There are still plenty of CB out there so my guess is we will sign one. If so it makes sense that they would either be looking at a QB or trading back and then taking a QB later. But I have a feeling that somebody in the front office might have a thing for Geno Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdl15 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 savede about 3,000,000 on Krueger. any chance we put that towards Phil Dawson. especially since we got groves .for nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether or not we get a CB it scares me that we bring in 2 OLBs when there are so many good ones at the top of the draft. Seems like we may be thinking about offense at 6 (Warmack, Geno, Coradelle) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Buffalo Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Everyone needs to calm down with the trade talk. We just signed a back up OLB. How in the hell does that tell you that we are trading Sheard. I don't understand how everyone assumes that every depth signing or every 6th round pick is supposed to be the new Cleveland superstar. Depth signing and nothing more. Also notice how other good teams operate. Steelers and Ravens have been good because they have depth, the can rotate players. You want to trade away our second string players so that we can't rotate anyone. How does that make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. With the acquisitions of Kruger/Bryant/Groves, and with Rubin/Taylor/Sheard/Hughes/Winn/DQ/Gocong etc. still on the roster this team seems like it has its front 7 personell under hand. So, maybe the Browns will go for their DB needs in the draft. Though the only guy that is rated high enough for the #6 pick is Milliner, and he may not be there at 6. If not, maybe a trade down to pick up that OG. Let's face it: Despite Ghoolie's protests to the contrary a football team is make or break in the trenches. If they got Warmack then the Browns trenches could be looking like the Battle of the Marne or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClevelandFanForLife Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 If they got Warmack then the Browns trenches could be looking like the Battle of the Marne or something. The first one or second one? Are you suggesting the Browns line would actually kill people? I'm 92.8% sure that's against the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like we may be thinking about offense at 6 (Warmack, Geno, Coradelle) I'm absolutely with you on this one. If we sign a CB I'm starting to feel whichever QB they like will be the 6th pick. However it might also signal they really don't see Sheard as a quality starter at OLB or DE and still plan to get one of the OLB prospects to start. It's hard to say for certain.

jrb12711 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Sorry for double post just a couple updates I'm seeing on Twitter and such: Browns expected to sign TE Gary Barnidge sp? from the Panthers, still interested in Myers from Oakland. Watch the panthers play often and Barnidge is a good depth TE. He seemed to always make the catch when in the game and came in on run plays a lot. I would take him over Alex Smith in a heartbeat.

BadNewsBrowns Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Fred Davis is good but isn't he a little old? Plus coming off a big injury. I'd rather see us draft one of these dynamic new breed tight ends in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather see us draft one of these dynamic new breed tight ends in the draft. He's only 27. Same age as Brandon Myers and are the youngest viable FAs left at that position. But I agree, if we miss on Myers or Davis, I'd love to see a TE drafted in the 3rd. (Escobar, Kasa, McDonald) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's funny is I was reading a Raiders beat writer site about them losing Bryant to the Browns and also us possibly being interested in Myers. All of them were talking crap saying we're taking them off their hands yada yada. The raiders franchise is clearly the most delusional in the NFL.
