miktoxic Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 We tried that and picked Trent Richardson number 3 overall. Exactly Mark! well guys we've tried that with almost every position and whiffed on them all since the 80s. does that mean you stop trying? we need a franchise qb. what do we do wait until the cherubs drop one in our laps? we need a powerhouse rb that doesn't get tripped up by a candy wrapper that blew on the field. we need a ten ton truck TE. a tall physical wr who can bulldoze and catch everything. i've supported drafting D for the last 5 years and my posts will support that BUT god knows if we can't get someone on the offense that can get us more than one or two drives a game that are 3 and out then we are done for another season. hopefully someone will bloom from farmer's d heavy drafts in the last couple of years and you know HUE (poo poo). he'll want the QB and to think what we have on the roster to help him out skill wise on the O is already there then you don't know shit.

I was just giving you shit. I think its going to be a QB at #2 and unless we're going to count on Gordon, we need a WR as well. Not as concerned about TE.

Not as concerned about TE. i know mark. we have no probs. what would be great is if we hit on more than one player in a 6 pick draft. (just used six as an example, don't know how many we'll have).

Tour2ma Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 These guys actually WATCH this team play and football in general instead of lost episodes of the Mandrell Sisters or the Hallmark Channel on Sundays. I had that option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoorta Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Some agendas in here aren't about this team, football or the common bond of it all. For example, the same agenda that says Joe Thomas is killing us used to need attention by announcing Bernie Kosar was killing us all throughout his best football days. Today, when Vag posts something absurd - those threads go on forever getting the most attention on the board (other than Manziel who is also controversial). Guess who's competing with that? We could all get more attention if we wanted to be controversial instead of talking about this team. I'd rather focus conversations more on the refreshingly new approach from the top of our organization and what draft prospects will be projecting in our draft slots this April. Thanks for the compliment Tom. (((()))) You're right- some people love to be contrarian, just to grab attention. Funny thing is- though Ghoolie can be a pain in the ass, he's often right. Of course it's easy to be right picking on guys like Crenell, Savage and a few others when the Browns have been a continual train wreck since 1999. I had that option? LOL, I can honestly say I've seen every minute of every Browns game since 1999. I have to admit it was sort of fun having my Sundays free in the Dark Years after Schmodel moved the team. Probably watched less than 20 hours of the NFL in those three years. I got a lot of long bike rides in on those nice fall weekend afternoons. And to all Happy Super Sunday. As a Browns fan "Just one before I die." Gonna hang out with about 20 other wine and food fans at my pal's house. If it turns into a Carolina blowout- at least the food and booze will be good. LOL, I saw in the paper today- 30% of the people who tune into the game- those once a year NFL fans, see the SB as an entertainment event- not a game.

browns52 Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Hopefully our new analytics approach will help to pick more players who can actually play.

Mark O Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 I wonder though, do they want to play......here.......ain't no analytics for that.... If they're drafted by the Browns, they don't really have much choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flugel Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 well guys we've tried that with almost every position and whiffed on them all since the 80s. does that mean you stop trying? we need a franchise qb. we need a powerhouse rb. we need a ten ton truck TE. a tall physical wr who can bulldoze and catch everything. We don't quit trying Mik. When our entrusted front office can't get us any of those in spite of 2 first round draft picks (a few times), hefty draft volumes and a lot of spending money - we need a better front office. Working smarter is definitely applicable here; and I'm thankful Jimmy's ego is willing to admit mistakes so it's possible to correct them. As Yukon Cornelius once said before he arrived on the Island of Misfit Toys - LAND HO-OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! It's what Eddie DeBartolo had to do before he got everything aligned properly in SF. I just started a thread about him which cut and pasted an article about a successful business owner that had to learn from some early rookie mistakes as an owner before he became ready for an induction into the NFL HOF. I did that to remind us Jimmy looks to be working diligently on acknowledging his mistakes and correcting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
