I'd be ok with taking a flyer on him, late 5th on. Why the fuck not?

would love it. Nothing wrong with spending a late pick on a project that has shown huge potential.

I wonder how many other teams are thinking the same thing though.

This... I feel like we are always losing situations like these. I'd be all for it, though. We need a little rage and aggression.

I suggested Kahlil a few months ago on here and was criticized by most stating that it was not wise to take a RT with the #4 overall pick.

+1. The people who QQ about are just looking for the sexy pick. I remember a lot of people QQing when the Browns drafted JT (along with other idiots making fun of the browns for that pick). That pick turned out alright.

Yeah he could turn out to be a beast. Im sure there are many who are waiting for him to fall. Another guy who I think would be great to get in the later rounds would be Kellen Moore(Probably like 6th or 7th round with a comp pick).

looks like keith rivers was traded from the bengals for a 5th rounder. i wish the browns would have moved on him. if he stays healthy the dude is a fucking stud.

My only gripe is that I wonder if that is too high for a right tackle. If he was going to stay on the blind side....I would love it

I doubt the Bengals would have been willing to deal within the division...

The price tag would have been much higher if the Browns went after him. If you trade within the division, you look to rape the other team.

Would it make you feel better ff JT agreed to allow Kalil play LT for one play per game?

Yeah, you suggested it a few months ago. At that time, it was a forgone conclusion we were trading up for a QB. Quit being a bitch.

I love how mock drafts still have the Browns taking Tannehill... In fact, one recently have the Browns TRADING UP to #3 in order to take Tannehill. It just goes to show that these morons writing articles know just as little as any of us. What a joke.

I think in the past these guys would be somewhat accurate guessing what the Browns draft, but H&H keep everything secret, which I like.

You apparently forgot to inform Dan Snyder of your forgone conclusion.

If I'm the Browns I take Richardson and don't think twice about it. Tannehill isn't even a thought. He hasn't done jack to warrant that high of a pick. 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.

Blount is dumb. He can't pick up a blitz and he can't catch. He's a 2-down back at best, and his numbers were pretty average last year too.

Yeah Blunt is very limited. It only gets worse the more tape their is on him as well. He'll be lucky to have a Michael Bush type career going forward. He might have a year or two is the Bucs don't take Rich.

I am def warming up to Richardson at 4 as long as we either move up or get a wr at 22.

Now that the tribe has been officially and mathematically eliminated, can't wait for football to start.
