Not where he was selected. He probably could have been taken as low as where we took Veikune. Could have used his or Robiskie's spot to grab Loadholt and we wouldn't be dealing with the human turnstile, John St Clair, at RT.SportsAndLady;494280 wrote:I think he's going to be a very good WR for this team for a long time. Reach or not, drafting a WR in the 2nd round that will be a solid #2 WR for a long time is a good pick.
Grouping him with Veikune and Robiskie isn't fair, imo.

Surely you're not talking about Holmgren?thedynasty1998;494354 wrote:Even though Capone is a moron, he actually brings up an interesting point.

QB - Delhomme - one of the worst 3 QB's in NFL
RB - Harrison - average at best NFL RB
WR - You have a #2 as your #1, and a #3 as your #2
TE - Ben Watson. Garbage.
Left side of offensive line - as good as any in football
Right side of offensive line- as bad as any in football
Defensive line - average?
Linebackers - Who?
Secondary - solid
What about that roster is supposed to be promising for a team that has been in rebuild mode since returning to Cleveland?
