If we don't sign Grimes and Milliner is available he will be the pick. But if Grimes is signed, Warmack or Austin!

^^ I do like Dion Jordan a lot. I think he can potentially be the best OLB in this draft. I wouldn't be surprised if he went ahead of us.

Per Adam Shefter the Browns have signed Jason Campbell.. Buh bye Colt.
EDIT: 2 year deal. Jason La Conforta thinks he could be the opening day starter.. YIKES

Jason Campbell!! Goodbye Colt. Page wouldn't refresh so I see I'm a little late. Don't mind the signing, mediocre qb but better than McCoy.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they are just trying to put pressure on weeden.

Campbell has proven that he's not an NFL starter with 3 different teams.SportsAndLady;1415174 wrote:Lol Jason fucking Campbell? I'd much rather have Colt than that bum.

After hearing more & more, my biggest concern with Weeden isn't the physical abilities or accuracy, it's what's between the ears. Does this guy want to win a championship or is he just "glad to be here.?" Not saying he's a championship caliber QB but I question his desire, work ethic & leadership skills. McCoy blew goats with his physical skills but his leadership was never in question. I get the feeling that Weeden is kind of "content" and I have no reason why.

I heard a sound bite from NFL Films during the Redskins game. Weeden sounded like he didn't have very much command of the huddle and when he went to the sidelines, QB coach Mark Whipple was screaming at him "take control...be a LEADER...ATTACK, ATTACK!!" I actually find the "attack, attack" comments to bring the lulz considering it was in Shurmur's white bread/snorer offense.like_that;1415292 wrote:I unfortunately have ha that feeling about weeden as well.

Makes sense. Its a definite possibility he is content with "just being there". Probably because of the age he made it.BR1986FB;1415291 wrote:Campbell has proven that he's not an NFL starter with 3 different teams.

I heard from a friend that dated one of the players on the Browns practice squad that the entire mindset of the locker room was horrible. He said the Browns players don't expect to win and they are simply content with being the laughing stock and making their paychecks. Obviously, I don't think this applied to everyone, specifically guys like D'Qwell and Dawson, but for the most part that was the feeling he got from being in our locker room.BR1986FB;1415294 wrote:I heard a sound bite from NFL Films during the Redskins game.

Weeden is definitely happy to be there...he was 30 years old coming out of college, a college that was in a conference where other QBs were FAILING all over the NFL. He just wanted to be drafted; and someone took him in the first round! Lol.
So do we draft Geno to learn under Campbell for a year? They're similar QBs, in style. Weeden starts this year, Campbell gets Geno ready for 2014.

Can you blame them? They KNEW they weren't going to be a winning team with the talent on the team; and of course with the coach being a complete inept moron.Dr. KnOiTaLL;1415335 wrote:I heard from a friend that dated one of the players on the Browns practice squad that the entire mindset of the locker room was horrible.

Why would they "get up" to go 7-9 rather than 4-12?
If you get a good QB on this team, and a coaching staff that knows what they're doing, they will NOT act that way.

Kind of skeptical myself considering for how craptastic a coach Shurmur was, they still "battled" in most games and weren't embarrassed.like_that;1415348 wrote:I don't believe this at all.

Exactly they played hard every game except for shitting down their legs against the giants and redskins.

Adkins (OBR) saying they are locked in on EJ Manuel & Tyler Bray as later QB options. He said they'll pass on Geno even if he's sitting there at 6. Absolutely LOVE the Eifert kid and the WR from WV.
No interest in Jarvis Jones, internal split on interest in Ansah & like Kentucky OG Warford a lot,

Just what I was told. I didn't directly speak to the guy myself, but was told that from a friend who dated him. He only lasted a month and a half on the practice squad, so it's possible he was just bitter and trying to paint it as being a "good riddance" instead of a hit to his confidence and ability.BR1986FB;1415359 wrote:Kind of skeptical myself considering for how craptastic a coach Shurmur was, they still "battled" in most games and weren't embarrassed.
