I hate RBs that high, but I guess I could warm up to trich at 4 if the next 2 picks are WR/OL. If they throw Weeden or Tannehill in there I will be pretty pissed.

Yeah, that is where I am. I would love to see the best right tackle available at 37.

Trich that high doesn't bother me because he's going to be a sure thing. It's very hard to find that "sure thing" that high. At least Richardson will give us offensive playmaking ability that we know will come. Something that just isn't guaranteed with the other offensive players at that pick.

Nobody is a sure thing.

I would disagree with you. Barring injury, Trich is a sure thing.

No way you can prove that. Plenty of guys were considered a "sure thing" heading into the draft, and they ended up shitting down their legs.

He's the type of player that gets people fired. I stay away from Claiborne as well. I'd NEVER take a CB that high. I also have concerns about him. Good player, I just don't know how good he is when he isn't playing along side another stud. Certainly a first rounder, I just highly question the value in terms of being a top 5, or even top 10.
Well then the Browns wouldn't have anything to worry about.

I know. There is no way I can prove that and I completely agree with you on that. But just based on his tape, dominating the SEC for 2 years, he's a sure thing to dominate the NFL. That's just my personal opinion.

I can somewhat agree with this. Based on the way the board is falling, its not setting up well for the Browns. I would much rather take Richardson than Tannehill or Blackmon. Normally though, I would never take a RB in the first and if I were the GM I still wouldn't this year. Much rather have Clairbone, top WR on my board at #22 (or Lavonte David), Massie to play RT and then LeMichael James as my RB. Either James falls or use some of our 13 picks to move up to get him late in the second. If we can do that for Montario fucking Hardesty, we can do it for James.

I thought he was a great pick by the Pats too. I just SMH at some of the WRs that I thought would be decent in the NFL; Limas Sweed, Crabbtree, Edwards, Robo (SMFH again).

St. Louis RamsGilyard was drafted with the 1st pick in the 4th round (99th overall) by the St. Louis Rams in the 2010 NFL Draft.[SUP][5][/SUP] On June 28, 2010, Gilyard signed a four-year $2.32 million contract with a signing bonus of $552,000.
He was released in the final cutdown after the fourth preseason game in the 2011 preseason.
[h=3][edit] New York Jets[/h]The New York Jets claimed Gilyard off waivers on September 4, 2011.[SUP][6][/SUP] However, he was waived by the Jets on September 9.[SUP][7][/SUP]
[h=3][edit] Philadelphia Eagles[/h]Gilyard worked out for the Philadelphia Eagles in September 2011 and met with the team again on January 5, 2012.[SUP][8][/SUP] He was signed to a futures contract the following day.
From his wiki. I thought he was a good pick in the fourth round.

I'd trade 22 for a 1st next year then bundle to move up so I have another pick close to 37 and get a nice rt, cb, or wr with those two. It'd be nice to have another 1st next year for Barkley if you need to move up a couple spots.

My dream scenario is Claiborne, LaVvonte David, then either Wright, Randle, Hill in the second (one will fall), trade back into the second (perhaps a trade back to #6) and get Massie, then pray and hope LeMichael James falls into the 3rd.
