Yes I am...just saying I don't want to be "in the playoff hunt" this year, I want to either be a) 2-14 with the #1 overall pick or b) 14-2 and SB contenders. Sorry if you don't agree

eh, I'd be ecstatic 7-9, 8-8. This isnt the NBA. You don't have to suck in order to get better.

Not a bad trade for the Browns they are some WRs left but none of them garnered an early pick in the 3rd round.

As soon as Randle came off the board they traded down. They tried to move up into the 2nd (trade with Eagles) that fell through.

Normally I agree..but I think Weeden sucks, so I want them to be 2-14 so they can grab the top QB in 2013 (either that or a really good record, obviously)

My worst case scenario for this team is around .500

What team in NFL history has gone that bad to SB contender in one year?

Your worst case scenario is marked improvement from last year, getting 8 wins against the 3rd toughest schedule in the league with a rookie RB and rookie QB?

That's retarded.

regardless of how much he may or may not suck, I dont see them giving up on him after one year. If they do go 2-14 or whatever next year, maybe they will finally bite the bullet and take a WR high.

Your statement had no middle ground or progression mentioned.

So because you THINK Weeden sucks, you WANT the Browns to suck? Makes sense..

Like I said, I'm not big on the Weeden pick, but I've grown on it. I hope he succeeds because I want the Browns to do well.

Best player on the board right now might be Alfonzo Dennard CB Nebraska. With his recent legal problem, he could end up being a steal.

Yes because you can't win shit in the NFL without a super star QB and Weeden, imo, is not and will never be that.

They go 8-8 this year, they're gonna go 8-8 the next year..and the next year. And the next year.

You go 2-14, you get your Matt Barkley or Keith Price or whoever the RG3 is next year...then you see "marked improvement" and can be happy w/ that.

Pontbriand, 5th rounder, I believe.

Al Davis took Janikowski with a 1st, I think
