I know quite a few people liked Aaron Murray, but he's off the board now.

At least early... Maybe we can pick him up as a development guy.

This was a pitiful game by even Clowns standards. If I was one of the third shift workers who had spent their cigarette money on a ticket for that worthless effort I'd be looking for some kind of retribution on a dockside hooker maybe.

I won't get the house cleaning I would like so it doesn't really matter what I want.

As long as Joe Banner is our lead talent evaluator this franchise is going no where.

He and his yes men minions are proving to be exactly what we thought they were at the start of the season.

Thank God they didn't trade Gordon like they wanted to. It fits the narrative though as they had no clue what they had in him.

A bunch of second rate bums with a crook for an owner. Par for the coarse with Cleveland Browns football though.

New regime, same sorry ass team.

They saw that Trent was replacable and got a 1st rounder for him. Does that fit your narrative?

At worst Cleveland has the 10th pick as of right now considering 4 teams are currently 4-7. Jacksonville can do us a huge favor next week and just win, if that happens, I don't see Cleveland winning another game this season.

I still like Blake Bortles for the Browns, if he comes out.

[h=1]Browns sign trick-shot quarterback Alex Tanney[/h] Posted by Michael David Smith on November 26, 2013, 11:45 AM EST
APIf the Browns want to run a trick play on which the quarterback drops back to pass, throws the ball deep into the end zone, bounces it off the goal post and into the receiver’s hands for a touchdown, they’ve got their man.
OK, technically that wouldn’t work (a pass that hits the goal post is incomplete), but they’ve still got the guy who can do it: Alex Tanney revealed on Twitter that he is heading to Cleveland.
Tanney is the quarterback best known for posting a trick-shot video of himself to YouTube, showing his ability to make absurd throws into moving cars, bouncing passes off goal posts from all angles, and making full-court basketball shots with footballs. The trick-shot video got him noticed as an undrafted rookie out of Monmouth College, and he has spent time with the Chiefs and Cowboys.
Now he’ll play for the Browns. And you can already hear the calls from Cleveland fans for Tanney to replace Brandon Weeden.

Pretty obvious you guys need a QB. This is a QB driven league. Now, whom to pick is the question.

Not sold on Manziel. Could be safer picks than him. I could see him flop big time in the NFL more than I see him as a Wilson or Kap.

Yea, imo, other than Bridgewater, the next 10 QB's are pretty equal. That's one reason I wouldn't mind getting playmakers with the first two picks, then a QB with the first pick in the 2nd that can compete to start right away or sit a year or two behind Hoyer.

Little had more tackles than Mingo last week

weeden is 14 for 30 on throws at or behind the line of scrimmage
the league avg on such throws is 80%+

14/30 is below 80%

I'm guessing maybe 15-20% of those completed passes, were truly accurate, allowing the receiver to gain extra yardage.

Gotta love how there is a fine, but no penalty. That play pretty much sealed the loss for the Browns too. I guess the NFL is just protecting their star QBs.
