Brian Robiskie Where Art Thou?

After three games the most talked about Browns '09 draft member Brian Robiskie has been, well lets say, no where to really be seen.

Whats the problem?
Really there is no problem, unless you count being a rookie a problem. Let's look at it this way, the Browns drafted two rookie wideouts in the 2nd round. It was silly of us to think that both Robiskie and Mohammad Massaquoi (3 catches 44 yds so far) would both be seeing much playing time there first year in the NFL outside of special teams.

But Doesn't Brian have a dad that coaches WR's in the NFL?
Yes, but no matter how much preparation and coaching a person may receive, only being out on the field can one really put that coaching into practice. With again another entire new regime coaching the Browns, and them weeding out the old players while installing the new, players may be doing things that normally wouldn't be done.

Other off season moves.
Don't forget that during this offseason we lost (if you wanna call it that) WR's Donte' Stallworth and Joe Jurevicius. So the organization went out and signed free agents David Patten (who's in his mid 30's and hasn't played a preseason game yet this year) and Mike Furrey who may end up being our poor mans version of Wes Welker. So we got that going for us, which is nice.

And remember:
This is a 16 game season, and any starter is always one play away from being put on the injured reserved list. Brian may not start the season lined up with the first team offense, but as he gains more reps and feels more comfortable with Mangini's system we very well could see him lined up along side Braylon Edwards before seasons end.

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...

The Pooh Has Hit The Fan

So what I am going to do is simply post everything interesting I have been able to come across during the past few days. Oh, in case you didn't hear, the Browns let the door hit the ass of general manager George Kokinis on his way out.

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...
