Lions vs Browns

Matt Stafford has been given the nod to start on Saturday. Who's starting at QB for the Browns? Well maybe Mangini is taking a play from Romeo's playbook and will flip a coin during tomorrow's pregame warm-up.

Eric Steinbach found it hard to belive that Jerome Harrison's 72-yard touchdown run against Buffalo last season was the last time the offense scored a touchdown. read more

Concerns heading into the game are:

No clear-cut starting quarterback....DUH

No clear-cut No. 2 receiver. Right now with Cribbs or with Quinn taking a liking to Furrey, i'm fine with either.

No clear-cut starting center. Lets be honest its gonna be 1st Rd pick Alex Mack.

A No. 1 receiver coming off a drop-filled season. All we can hope for is that the number doesn't expand.

A starting running back who will turn 30 next week. Ok, Jamal has heart but he just can't hit the whole like he used to. Unless our line kicks it up a notch (which I don't want to get into right now, we always have hope don't we?) I don't see anything spectacular coming from the former Volunteer.

A first-time offensive coordinator. Ok you stumped me on this one. (Damn you Mary-Kay Cabot!!!!!)

One other quickie to watch for will be the productivity of newly acquired (and former Brown) Shaun Smith. Will he try to stick it to the man or will he continue to work a less than productive game has he did here in Cleveland.

2018 NFL Draft Cleveland Browns Preview

***UPDATE #2*** Per RotoWorld and Jordan Raanan of ESPN: Rumor has it that the NY Giants are only willing to spend the 2nd overall pick in April's draft for a QB if it were going to be Sam Darnold. Read More    Browns also made another move in for the secondary by signing CB EJ Gaines. Read More. **UPDATE** As many of you have probably already scene. The NY Giants traded DE Jason Pierre-Paul to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday. Really, three things could happen here. Giants draft a QB or Barkely. They could still trade out with Buffalo or another sneaker team that no one is aware of yet. Finally, and what seems to now make the most sense, they draft DE Bradley Chubb in place of JPP's vacancy.   Who will be the one? Just weeks away from the 2018 NFL Draft and our beloved Cleveland Browns find themselves again picking high in Round 1.  At this point, with the New York Jets trading up to the #3 spot it looks like this draft could be shaking u...

NFL Trade Deadline at 4pm Today.

With any of the 4 major sports, there are always rumors galour during the trade deadline. Along with an Indians team that fell well short of expectations. The Browns may also be in a selling mood. Names being mentioned have been Joshua Cribbs, Brady Quinn, Kameron Wimbley and Shaun Rodgers. Another name being mentioned as been former Buckeye Ted Ginn Jr of the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins may now have realized that they took him way to high in the draft just a few years ago. However if the Browns want a vertical threat at the right price, Ginn could be there man. If you recall rumors circulated earlier this year that the Dolphins and Browns were talking Braylon Edwards and Ronnie Brown. Maybe we can trade Wimbley for Bill Parcells instead? At this point I am still reluctant to give up Wimbley. Yes, he has fallen short of expectations from his standout rookie season, but on the other hand, he already has matched his sack totals from a year ago (4), and is on pace to beat his tota...

How Does Johnny Football Figure Into This Years Draft?

With the NFL Draft fast approaching your Cleveland Browns are faced with another slew of challenges (and by challenges I really mean a giant shit storm of problems). It is beyond obvious that GM Ray Farmer is clueless on how to build a team through the draft and all the corner office suits are so inept at there positions that we can't even get any decent free agents to visit let alone sign here. The Browns are currently picking 12th and 19th in the first round. Depending on the mock draft the Browns could be doing anything from trading up with  Tennessee to draft Marcus Mariota or just turning in a blank card on draft day. For once, the Browns should only do one of two things. One: Stay at both 12 and 19 and draft the best available player or your "big board" at those spots. We basically suck at every position but LT, C, and one CB spot. Bolster your roster from top to bottom, add depth, play makers, make smart decisions. If the QB you want is not going to be...
