I don't get the whole "curved" thing... not like I watch a lot of Cinerama... Look it up kids... Some quick tidbits of interest : Uh oh : Pettine on Shanahan : Hmmmm : Why is it every non-MKC tweet is attributed to a major figure in the Browns organization, but hers not so much?

calfoxwc Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Posted Yesterday, 04:45 PM Agholor is a 4th round receiver I've been wondering about. tiam *********************************************** Agholor will go higher than that after the combine. Think more like at least late second round. He's quite a player, just not a first rounder... imhso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAFBF Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Why is it every non-MKC tweet is attributed to a major figure in the Browns organization, but hers not so much? She usually brings up the tail end after everyone else has reported it, but she gets a scoop every once in a while. Several others confirmed her posts, I just came across hers first so went with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short piece on OL Bowie : Dawg Pound Journal: Michael Bowie could compete for starting spot at right tacklePosted 1 hour ago Kevin Jones Staff Writer @Mr_KevinJones Facebook Former Seattle Seahawk started 8 games in 2013 INDIANAPOLIS – Some NFL draft analysts milling around the NFL Combine have been keen on the Browns selecting a right tackle with one of their two selections in the first round. Coach Mike Pettine said current right tackle Mitchell Schwartz had some plays he wanted to take back, but overall had a solid year. Pettine didn’t shoot down upgrading the position, and he went out of his way to remind the media the Browns have stashed away a player who could end up being a starter: Michael Bowie. “We got him from Seattle,” Pettine reminded reporters. “He had his shoulder operated on and he sat out the whole year. We’re very interested to see what he brings to the table. Whether he can give us some depth there or compete for a starting position.” The Seahawks had hoped to keep Bowie but the Browns plucked him back in August. The 6-foot-5, 320-pounder started eight games for Seattle in 2013, the year the franchise won the Super Bowl. Bowie is regarded as a staunch, athletic run blocker. “We want guys to come in and push to make us better as a football team,” Browns general manager Ray Farmer said. Bowie is entering his third season from Northeastern State (Okla.) http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/news/article-5/Dawg-Pound-Journal-Michael-Bowie-could-compete-for-starting-spot-at-right-tackle/c59cafbe-1da3-4f27-a6b1-2d97b18b3b78 (Another) Red Flag ? : Marcus Mariota says his biggest adjustment will be huddling http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/02/19/marcus-mariota-says-his-biggest-adjustment-will-be-huddling/ No QB, DL depleted, WR's out . . . where's this coming from ? : Dawg Pound Journal: NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport thinks Browns will be in 2015 playoff hunt http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/news/article-5/Dawg-Pound-Journal-NFL-Network%E2%80%99s-Ian-Rapoport-thinks-Browns-will-be-in-2015-playoff-hunt/b146abd7-850e-446b-8778-ef15da797885 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Post may be more appropriate here... The mid round WR I'm intrigued by is the kid from E. Carolina, Justin Hardy. And my "who's that WR", Combine moment was provided by Chris Conley. Of the RBs Ameer Abdullah impressed and Matt Jones reinforced my FB conversion vision for him.

tiamat63 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Post may be more appropriate here... I haven't watched Hardy, but I've heard good things. I'll try to watch some on him this week. We might not be in the market for a RB but its hard not to enjoying envisioning getting Abdullah the ball in space. Kid is a special talent.

gumby73 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 What the heck is up with all these QB's that can't call a play in the huddle?? thanks NCAA, Manziel had no clue at this all preseason with no head in the books, Who's next?? Bortle's and Carr give Hope.. 12 or 19 where does Hundley fall and Maxx fall, interesting?? No needs at 19? Still may want to get to picks 11 and 12 or 12 and 13..(Give up pick 19 and a 2nd rounder) but not for Maxx I would not think. Like mid round WR, still like Hobart Kid at OL.But where the hell is the run stopper?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 More of a case of haven't than can't to my mind. So much hurry-up, many College QBs haven't been asked to call plays in the huddle. Of more concern to me are their lack practice in making sight adjustments with those coming from the sidelines as well. Hundley has been projected as a second rounder; Maxx late first or 2nd. IMO either would be a terrible waste of a mid 1st, let alone both... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondwave Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 What I got from this combine, in regards to wide receivers: I have completely bought into the Amari Cooper hype. I like him more than Kevin White, and with Kevin White's stock at an all time high, I actually believe there's chance he'll still be there come pick #12. What do you guys think about Amari Cooper @ 12? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasAg1969 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 That depends on if Shelton is available. If Cooper is there Shelton will be gone. Then you have to ask if Brown will still be there at 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Shelton is gone, yes - I take Cooper. At 19 Brown won't be available. I'd trade out of the 1st round at that point. I'll take any combination of Carl Davis, then Orchard, Michael Bennett or the nex best DE/T available in the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s that leadership thing. That’s the hardest thing for these young quarterbacks who play in these systems…they have to learn how to play quarterback at this level and sometimes that’s overwhelming.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 It's called "draft fever"... Don't ya love it? What I got from this combine, in regards to wide receivers: I have completely bought into the Amari Cooper hype. I like him more than Kevin White, and with Kevin White's stock at an all time high, I actually believe there's chance he'll still be there come pick #12. What do you guys think about Amari Cooper @ 12? I've been heading in exactly the opposite direction the last couple weeks. I like Cooper... a lot. But I find myself convinced that we've seen his best. And while that best is damn good, 1st-round good... great even, I feel as if White has more upside.

The Gipper Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Here is a link to Bill Polian's ESPN Free Agent Tracker. He ranks each FA out there. While some of this looks good....I see one particular head scratcher. http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/freeagency/?page=4&year=2015&type=-1 Here are the ranks of the Browns Free agents: Jordan Cameron 35 Brian Hoyer 92 Jabal Sheard 122 Mile Austin 122 Johnson Bademosi 160 Shaun Draughn 239 Sion Fua 265 and the head scratcher: Tashaun Gipson 275 with a D grade. Polian is usually pretty good, but I don't know what he was smoking there. It is not a question of the fact that Gipson is a Restricted FA. He has other RFA sranked highly. Could it be the fact that he was injured for the latter portion of the year? I don't know. But, for the Browns not to be very "active" they do need to replace what they lose in my opinion. And on that note, where he has Hoyer ranked #92, Josh McCown is ranked #102. (so, fair enough there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's even funnier is that he has Mike Adams, who was here as a safety and who sucked swamp water, rated with a C. Gipson has been triple the player that Adams was.

Mudfly Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 That does seem low for the way he's played the last 2 years, though I'd think that a major knee surgery has everything to do with it..... He's fairly damaged goods right now, so until he returns and shows he can play, then the lower value makes some sense... That works to our advantage, I do believe....

tiamat63 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Exactly... makes me think Chip is some kind of thrill-seeking, adrenaline junkie. He just believes in his system, good for him. His genius offense has net him zero playoffs wins and if it wasn't for facing the Big10's 2nd best team - probably wouldn't have any Rose Bowl wins under that system as well. In all seriousness, teams at most may only utilize the read on 8% of their run plays - but when you present your QB as a ball carrier, the defense CAN hit him regardless if he has the ball or not.
