1-throw out your favorite draft pick, both short and long term players

Gotta go with Trent. Also like the Acho and JMJ picks at LB, and Billy Wynn.

2-who will be the best 2 WRs on this team by year's end?

Little and whatever free agent they finally end up realizing they need to bring in.

3-give me your final AFC North standings this year

Ravens, Steelers, Bengals, Browns. I wouldn't be surprised if the Ravens won the division by 3 games.

4-game you're most excited for this season (Browns vs ???)

None really stand out. The home opener is always fun though. Until the game starts.

Other than the Hughes pick which was laughable, I am ok with everything else. The Weeden pick was a reach and may have been a panic pick because they lost Wright....but I can live with it...even though I have my doubts that he pans out. At least they are trying to fix this mess.

Trent Richardson for sure, I'm so happy we have a stud back now. My darkhorse favorite pick is Ryan Miller because of his versatility and his productivity at CU.

2-who will be the best 2 WRs on this team by year's end?

Greg Little and Evan Moore


3-give me your final AFC North standings this year

Steelers
Ravens
Browns
Bengals

Season opener. I'm excited to see how our offense is going to run.

For those interested, that jersey website I posted has the new nike jerseys, right now they only have Richardson and Weeden. I'm shocked they have them this quickly.

Big upgrade at backup QB for them if that turns out to be true.

Mcnabb has been horrible. Not much of an upgrade.

Problem with McNabb is that I wouldn't see him wanting to "groom" Weeden. I think it would create as much potential controversy as if they kept McCoy (both are accustomed to being starters).

Yes, McNabb looked bad in Washington but had some great years in Philly obviously. How much of his struggles in Washington were due to deterioration of ability/skill or was it just a bad fit? Personally, I think it was the latter. I think that he would be an asset to Cleveland in a backup role in that offense. He's not what he once was but I'd take him over Wallace and McCoy in a backup role. JMO

I think he'd be great as a backup. He could teach Weeden the offense. I'm skeptical that he'd settle for that role though.

Wow...this is a shocker. Holmgren will join Bull & Fox on 92.3 tomorrow at 2:30pm. I thought the Browns had pretty much boycotted 92.3 with Booms being such a dick & all?

That would piss me off. McCoy can be a solid back up and McNabb has been horrible/shell of his former self since he was an iggle. Wallace can GFH though.

I don't think they can have McCoy as the backup. It's not because he wouldn't be ideal for it (inexpensive, on par with Wallace...talentwise), but because I just can't see him accepting a backup role. It's best for them to move him to another team where he can get a fresh start, imo.

LOL...Steeler "fan" at the Tribe game. Probably looking to jump on the bandwagon now that they are winning. #typicalfrontrunner P.S. Nice flannel, Eddie Vedder...
