I know a few guys naturally gifted enough to have been on scholarship somewhere for football. Maybe not even d1 but certainly d2. They just didn't have the heart for a game they were organically good at. Life's funny. I know. I've asked him why he has never become a paid teaching pro and he just grins and says he loves the profession he chose and that golf for him is just therapy and not the torture he had experienced as a teenager. If he lived a lot closer I might have had him teach me the game as an "old" learner. But Houston is a bit too far for that. We met when we both lived in Wyoming in another lifetime in the early 80s. Some days after a 2-3 hours of yard work my old body tells me that must have been the 1880's.🚮 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelers took their first round pick and lit it on fire. Jaguars already have the poster child for why 1st round RB isn't a need.. and their justification for Etienne ["He'll be a good third down piece"] is ridiculous Explain the highlighted comment. Is it just that you agree with those that say you should not draft RBs in the first round? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 44 minutes ago, SdBacker80 said: In regard to Fields... The Jets thought a workout looked like Mahomes so they bypassed Fields. The Jets have had a good QB...when? I don’t know what the Niners were thinking. They may ask that question too 24 months from now. And a team traded up from 20 to get Fields at 11. Giving up their first next year. Says a lot to me but another team that can’t figure out the position. I don’t know who is right or wrong here. I thought Fields was a Top 10 prospect. He probably needs a redshirt year. Atlanta was a perfect spot for him and it’s too bad because he’s got the keys from Day 1 and he needs a little drivers Ed Well, I think in my discussion with Tia I said that he was a Top 10 pick. Tia said he would drop, and, sure, he was right. He dropped all the way to 11. For which he did some kind of self aggrandizing victory dance and for which I guess I need to be excoriated.

ATOM Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 so who would you move up for and at what cost ? are 2nd 3rd round pick to get into the top 7 ? myself I would love Moehrig,Koramoah,Barmore and Ojulari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATOM Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 after reading tex's post looks like a 3rd plus a 5th and 6th to move that far up So i would pull the trigger and do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted April 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Yup.... 26 picks before ours tonite then another 31 until our first 3rd-rounder... ... but then only one more. 8 hours ago, Dutch Oven said: I wonder if the Browns are banking on Nick Harris being Tretter's eventual replacement? What he's done in the weight room this off-season is the biggest factor here. Really need him stronger... especially core and legs. One thing going for him is example Tretter set. That said... As others have said the looming cap situation dictates an OL investment this draft and as I was "discussing" with Vag, if we want quality, Round 2 is the place to invest... especially for a ZBS scheme team. Suitable candidates with plug-n-play, 4-position potential plus ZBS fit who are still on the board include: tu's Cosmi and tsun's Mayfield and that's it. I'm surprised Cosmi is still on the board, so I do not expect him to last long tonite, but Mayfield? There's a small chance he falls in our lap, but a modest trade up should net him. Mayfield in the bottom half of R2 has "STEAL" written all over him. If we are just interested in IOL... tOSU's Davis and tOSU's Myers are about it. Both are made for the ZBS and Davis is plug-n-play with the potential to immediately make our looming UFA RG tradeable... now or, if all goes well injury-wise, nearer the trade deadline when prices rise. Myers? He's plug-n-play-ish, especially at Center, but again by the time the trade deadline rolls around, then he could be established sufficiently to make Teller expendable. I know that IDL and Edge are seen by most as greater need, but with the former there look to be 3rd-round options (Barmore's fall has shown us the position's value in this class) and with the latter the R2 value is low after the late run last nite. I know... Ojulari is still there, but he's not a 4-3 fit... neither is Ossai... neither is FSU's Robinson. Bashum? Hate him (but not the name ) ... Roche? 3-4 OLB. While our 2nd is a bit rich to spend on Rashad Weaver, if you force me to go Edge in R2, he's my pick... but... I think we can nab him with a modest move up in R3.

Unsympathetic Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 It's not just a replacement for Tretter that we're looking for -- Teller's contract is up after the year and he's likely moving on.

Tour2ma Posted April 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 lol... in late Feb Pete Smith was writing about how we might draft Williams late Day-3... and then maybe stash him on the PS. https://www.si.com/nfl/browns/browns-maven-features/draft-fits-milton-williams Quote Where the Browns Might Select Him: Williams should be selected on day three of the NFL Draft. If he's sitting there in rounds six or seven, the Browns might want to go ahead and grab him there. I guess we are no longer concerned about fast risers... His Pro Day numbers are impressive, but has anyone actually broken down any game tape on this guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
