MudratDetector Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 i kinda saw this coming but didn't at the same time. looks like we're gonna have to make a move at CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halfsane Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 We need a CB pretty badly now. Wright blew at least one game for us last year single handedly. I thought he had great potential, but he never emerged here. Maybe being the best CB in Detriot will help his confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bag O'Browns Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 It is a steal for Detroit if they get the guy who played here before last season. Hopefully the Browns add some quality depth at CB here asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 more season Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 The Lions now have a weakness in their secondary. Don't forget he was beat by a one legged jet last year. E. Wright played so bad last year after showing so much promise. The Browns REALLY need to strengthen the corners. I've thought the corners were one of the biggest needs for this year right behind WR and ahead of the LBs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHardBrownsFan Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 at first i was sad that he left, then i remembered this... Good move by the FO. Wright quit last year. Worst coverage I have ever seen. I knew he was gone. Now watch him play like a Pro-Bowler for the Lions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now watch him play like a Pro-Bowler for the Lions. He wasn't talentless, so he could surprise for the Lions. He was a terrible tackler when he was good with us and a solid cover guy. When he couldn't cover last year and basically quit or lost confidence, he really fell into the beyond useless category. I won't miss seeing him avoid tackling people, even IF he has a nice year up in Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gips Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Actually eric wrong is a kitty kat not a lion.. hehehehehe We already have 2 starter quality CBs in sheldon brown and joey haden but it wouldnt hurt to bring in another from free agency..

WRREBEL Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I'm so glad this bumm is gone.. I would rather have hank poteat back then eric wright... He basically played well one year because brandon mccdonald and hank poteat player with him.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crozone Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 There's still plenty of competent corners available such as Carlos Rogers, Antonio Cromartie, and Chris Carr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another person refusing to come to Cleveland. I'm sure that will be a good boost. But looks like we don't want to sign anyone anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowburn Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 After watching film of Wright last season, NFC North receivers will be chomping at the bit when they play da Lions. A change of scenery does not always offer the cure a struggling player is after. IMHO, Wright's glory days are behind him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 First, does anyone ever post their dishonest opinion? No wonder he moved on... death threats and all. It's obvious the Browns' "brain trust" (potential oxymoron of the year) still saw enough promise to offer the multi-year deal. After an sub-par season he certainly was not getting offers anywhere near his rookie deal, so taking a one-year deal with an up and coming team might pay off big in 2012. Don't forget the D-line he'll be playing behind in Detroit. QB pressure is a DB's best friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Browns DL could have gotten a lot more pressure on opposing QBs I suppose our DBs would have looked a lot better. That said, Eric Wright still played pathetically last year in comparison to prior years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
