Give the Ball to Trent Richardson

With just over a week until draft day, the rumor mill (aka speculation mill) is running at ludicrous speed.


So anyhow, the Rams and Eagles and maybe half a dozen other team have inquired about trading up in the draft to the Browns #4 pick. Look, getting more picks is a good thing for this team. But at some point we need to get REAL playmakers on the field. I'm talking about top tier studs. I didnt loose much sleep in not getting Falcons WR Julio Jones in last years draft (mostly because I would rather have had AJ Green) but we have to get some difference makers this year. Thats why I want to see the Browns stay at #4 overall and draft Bama RB Trent Richardson. Some of you can bitch all you want about drafting a RB that high, but damn near everyone thinks he's the best RB to come out of college since Adrian Peterson. He can run, catch, and block. How do those things not help this offense from day one?


I changed my mind from wanting Justin Blackmon. For mostly character issues that I have been hearing. Also for the fact that this draft is pretty deep at the WR position, and waiting until pick #22 won't kill us. The AFC North is a very physical division where the Browns have to play the Steelers and Ravens twice a year. Remember who the Browns had starting for a time at RB last season. Chris Ogbonnaya,a guy that was on the Texans practice squad.

Lets give Colt mccoy something to fall back on, a safety net if you will. lets not all through a hissy fit like a former Bengals coach or like me when your blog only allows you to type in caps and be.....ok.......if the browns choose Trent richardson with there first pick.

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...

Ok.....Just Hear Me Out on This One.

I have March Madness.  Except my version does not involve basketball.  Mine involves that time of the year where there is no football, no baseball, and my BlueJackets suck right now.  So my full attention is focused on the NFL draft. Everyone and there next door neighbor has there theory on who is doing what and has some source that heard this rumor from a note written on the bathroom wall of a truck stop in Lincoln, Nebraska. In the last several weeks we have the Cleveland Browns drafting in round one Eric Berry, Sam Bradford, Colt McCoy, Tim Tebow, Joe Haden & God knows who else. However.....what if we chose to draft another offensive lineman? WTF?!?!? You say... Let me ask you this: How did we win the last 4 games of 2009?  RUNNING THE BALL . How sweet would our starting O-Line look with this blocking for Delhomme and Harrison: LT Joe Thomas   LG Eric Steinbach  C  Alex Mack  RG  TBD   RT  Tony Pasho...

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...
