I wonder if Pats fans bitch as much about his picks...

He drafts guys for his system. I see The Browns doing that the last few drafts, yet almost every pick is bitched about. I think several were bitching about Phil Taylor last year.

Not really, I always want a win, but I knew we were going to be drafting top 5 regardless. I wanted to draft top 5 looking for our QB then, not drafting top 5 with a 30 year old QB.

Pats will always compete as long as they have Brady. Once Brady is gone, they are screwed imo, because he has had a lot of misses with his picks.

Cant wait to watch Travis Benjamin open up this offense just because he runs a fast 40 time. How did that work for Oakland with Ford and Heyward-Bey?

I've liked the draft for the most part. The only thing I'm curious about is, when our plan for a WR fell through, it seems like we just decided not to address it. I'm anxious to see what their plan is going forward at the position. I have faith in Little being a solid WR, but I don't feel like he's a #1.

Just thought I would list the free agent wide receivers that are still available. Maybe the Browns have a target that they had in mind if they couldn't get their guy in the draft?

Danny Amendola RFA
David Anderson UFA
Plaxico Burress UFA
Greg Camarillo UFA
Mark Clayton UFA
Michael Clayton UFA
Patrick Crayton UFA
Rashied Davis UFA
Braylon Edwards Released
TJ Houshmandzadeh UFA
Bryant Johnson UFA
Mike Sims-Walker Released
Maurice Stovall UFA
Jehreme Urban UFA
Roy Williams UFA

Everyone has a second round grade on NFL.com

Are the Browns using that as one of their main resources? lol

Well, what do you like then? If a WR isn't getting yards, he's not doing much, is he?
