Gotta get this QB thing right. Make the wrong move and it will set the franchise back. Just look at the damage Jamarcus Russell did to the city of Oakland...

Pierre Garcon, a RT and throw a bunch of cash at Mario Williams would be my dream. Then maybe RGIII and Kendall Wright.

Titans seem to have a decent secondary despite no big names. Hopefully he can get Haden back to form.

The FA class of tackles is pretty weak. I like Gaither a lot, but you can't trust him to stay healthy at all.

This is a bit off topic, but why was Mangini always so hostile and tight lipped with the media as a coach when he actually seems somewhat friendly and affable?

I watch him on ESPN, and he is surprisingly pretty good on TV. Much more so than you would imagine given his reputation.

It seems like he was making life harder on himself going all Belichek when he actually isn't that standoffish in real life I don't think.

hypthetically speaking if RGIII is there for the Browns at 4...what do you think it would take for an Eli Manning type swap with the Colts for Luck?

Maybe because he realizes how much the media f*cking sucks. The ultimate word spin artists, the media isn't exactly a team's best friend.

Refusing the Colts but wanting to play for the Browns?

Never LOL. He was just asking how it would be possible for a RG III/Luck swap, and that's how.

It's the Belichick way. Mangini is actually an extremely intelligent and very kind hearted man from what I heard. Befriending that dying youth in Canal Fulton said a lot about him to me.

Like Butch Davis, pretty decent coach, shitty personnel guy. I believe that had Mangini been around when Savage was drafting they could've built a winner.

You mean the same Savage who threw away our 2008 draft for Shaun Rogers, Stallworthless, and Brady Quinn?

Or he could mean that Mangini's presence might have altered what happened? I don't know.

Womangini was a fucking idiot. Sure he had the X's and O's down, but didn't know how to deal with players. Glad that smug POS is gone.
