Ryan McCrystal ‏ @ Ryan_McCrystal
don't be surprised if the # Browns pick twice in the top 15...


And just the opposite, rumors floating that the Giants want to trade up to 22 for Hightower.

I think the Ravens will move up in front of the Steelers if the Giants don't.

To take Hightower.

Give me Richardson at 4 and Glenn at 22 and I'll be happy after round 1. That all but means WR at 37 (Hill, Jeffery) which means we stay away from Weeden which gives me a double :) :)

What a dick... here's a kid who has worked his tail off, stayed out of trouble, played the good guy (he went to prom this year!), and is the obvious #1 running back in his draft class. Let him enjoy the experience, no reason to open your mouth, Jim...

I would love a scenario in which we take Richardson at 4, Wright at 22, and Hill at 37. After taking two WR's like those guys, one of them has got to pan out, right?

Morris Claiborne - DB - Player

A source with knowledge of the situation tells NFL Network's Steve Wyche that LSU CB Morris Claiborne is the No. 1 player on the Vikings' draft board.

The source "reinforced" that the Vikings are "leaning toward" Claiborne at No. 3, and the team "likes him more" than USC LT Matt Kalil. ESPN's Adam Schefter seems to be on board with Wyche's prediction. Schefter reported just moments ago that "there seems to be a feeling that they might be leaning toward Morris Claiborne over Matt Kalil." These things can change quickly, of course, and there are still several hours remaining before the draft's first round. As of Wednesday night, the Vikings' minds weren't made up.

Hell yes.

That's dumb.

Imagine If they get Steinbach back. JT/Steinbach/Mack/Decastro/Reiff would be our line. Then with the 2 second round picks they can get a RB and WR. If a RB can't run with that line he sucks ass. Also no excuse for McCoy to suck ass anymore as he should have plenty of time to throw the ball.
But that isn't. I'd rather go Kendall Wright at 22, but I wouldn't mind Reiff and hoping a guy like Hill is available at 37.

You are talking about the best LT to come in the draft since JT or Long, I don't think it's too much to raise the price just a bit more. Anyway, after coming up with my dream scenario (you quoted it), I would take the initial offer.

I wouldn't.

You're dropping 6 spots in the 1st round and all you're doing is adding a second round pick.

I'd want more than that.

I think they could get more, but I wouldn't pass on that offer if a better one isn't made.

Adding a 2nd round pick and still staying in the top 10 is a good deal. Plus, I really want DeCastro.

I would rather have Hill (WR Ga Tech) over Wright (WR Baylor). He's an athletic freak, bigger, faster, better hops.

T Richardson at 4
Hill at 22
Lavonte David or OLine at 37

Some guys I would love on the Browns are DeCastro, Chris Givens and Chase Minnefield. I hope they get at least one of these guys in the draft.

This. I'd want the their 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and at least a 2nd and 5th next year.

#Browns GM Heckert told wtam there's a chance team will leapfrog them buts "it's not a huge deal'' because there's several guys they like



Daniel Wolf‏@DanielWolfNFL

Just heard the #Browns won't use all their 13 draft picks since they want to get a fourth selection in the first 2 rounds of the #NFLDraft

Heckert could tell MKC he thinks there's a good chance he turns into a leprechaun tonight at midnight and she would tweet it
