No, I'm a Browns fan. Hate Pittsburgh and Baltimore, who Browns get to play four times, yet, joy! You see me posting on Steeler threads? I'm an Ohio boy and I act like one. No one has ever accused me of being a frontrunner.

I've seen you post on Browns threads. Just don't post a lot. It's all good.

Unless we magically find offense, i see another seahawks snoozer. It really is hilarious that people are calling for a defensive draft. Last couple drafts we got defensive keys, and it's worked out great. The only thing I want to see from the defensive side of the ball this year is a linebacker. Our first three draft picks should be offensive playmakers. Whether that's linemen, rb's, wr's, or all of em. We need to get some talent on the offensive side of the ball because we have proven we can be capable of shutting down/limiting the opponents offense. Draft offensive, and you'll have a somewhat balanced team. 2013 draft, you come in and add pieces where needed. At least we will have some balanced on both sides of the ball, unlike our terrible excuse for an offensive showing.

As Wes stated, I confused you with GoPens.

As you said, the Browns defense need a linebacker, otherwise teams will just run all over them as they have been doing. If Vontaze is on the board, you can't pass him up. Go offense after drafting him.

Agree with this for the most part. They have to go mostly offense but if Burfict or the LB from Boston College is there and they are picking around 10 (highly doubt), I grab them. If they are picking top 5, I'm probably grabbing Barkley. A WR, RT and an explosive RB would be nice.

I can see the Browns being around 10 tbh. They are shitty, but given their shitty schedule, they can pull out victories.

I have no faith they will win another game this year. In seasons past we've heard the "the Browns are always good for that one head scratching/shocker victory that they're not supposed to win" regarding one of their games. This offense has given nobody any reason to believe one of those "victories" might come. This offense MAY be worse than the year they returned (1999) with Couch at QB.

I think the pick will be top 7, at best.

I think you are underestimating how shitty their schedule is lol. I see them drafting 8-10. We will see. I won't complain if its higher though.

Like I said yesterday, in a rematch with the Colts I couldn't honestly pick the Browns to win. If Painter plays in that earlier game, Browns may lose. Painter sucks but he's Joe Montana compared to Kerry Collins.

Under Mangini, the team always played hard for him, even late in the season. It will be interesting to see how they respond to Shurmur.

I really like DAVID DECASTRO, OG from STANFORD. Would like it for the browns to pick him up with one of their picks.

Big fan of him as well. Wouldn't mind him at all with the later 1st round pick, assuming he comes out.

Also, ESPN's playoff predictor says the Browns still have 0.7% odds of making the playoffs. So they're telling us there's a chance.

Predicts a final record of 6-10, tied for the 5th worst record in the NFL, but tied with 6 other teams. So we'd be drafting somewhere from 5-11 in their completely meaningless scenario.

That would be awesome, and honestly I think would change the Browns offense immediately.

Browns need a playmaking receiver for anything to change w/ this offense.

But a right side of the line would be great.

If he can't move to RT then I don't see a reason to draft him. I dont want to move the best player at his position (Joe Thomas).
