What, partying and having fun? LOL I'd take the word of the coaches who have worked with him (Sumlin and Whitfield) and attest to his work ethic and attitude than anyone else.

Above all, dude wants to kick ass in the NFL, he doesn't have character issues imo.

It's as if the Bull and the Fox have been reading my postings! Today they were whackin it at the thought of drafting both Manzial and Sammy.

The simplest way of doing it would be to package 26 and 35 for Houston's pick. If needed, give them one of the number 4's as well. The late minute frenzy to draft Manziel includes both the Raiders and Tampa Bay trading up for St Louie's number 2, with packages comparable to what Washington did to land RG 3. How to stop it? Get Houston's number1.

Imagine 6 or 7 pro bowlers on one offensive unit. It's up to you Farmer....you either get it done or you don't.

It's true though. He doesn't follow college football and the only thing he knows about Manziel are the ridiculous highlights and off the field BS seen over and over on Sportscenter

Now the other roommate (another Cleveland diehard) is enamored w/ Manziel. It's like my own version of the OC. The bicker daily about who to get at 4. :laugh:

lol you dipshit, if teams are going to give St Louis an RG3 type deal for #2, why in the FUCK would the #26, and a second rounder get it done to move to 1? lolfail.

Thought the same thing. A better deal for #2 than for #1...

I will do the freaking math for you once again to show you how retarded your idea is...

http://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp

Houston Gets-#26 (700), #35 (550) and a 4th rounder (82) for a total value of 1332
Cleveland Gets-#1 (3000) for a total of 3000

Here's another site that backs me up
http://walterfootball.com/draftchart.php

Now, no way on the planet does Houston do that freaking trade. You are a moron if you believe they would.

I love that he keeps putting out these shitty trades thinking that would Houston would bite.

We'd severely cripple the future of the team to get two players. I'll pass.

Hell ESPN today was doing a mock draft, and to move from 9 to 1, required Buffalo to give up the Following:

#9 Pick, 2015 1st Rd, 2016 2nd Round, 2014 3rd, and 2015 3rd.

OK. So they won't do that. I'm OK with that. Then you have to sweeten it more. Throw in another draft pick...this year or even next year's number 2. Whatever it takes to get the deal done. Now do you understand, numbnuts?

Like I said, if I were GM, the Browns would win the division next season.

So..if I read your post correctly, the Browns are getting a shit deal....AND Houston is getting a shit deal. So which is it Slick?

As for mortgaging the future, what future are they mortgaging exactly? Give me 7 pro bowlers on offense and then cry a river on how badly the future is mortgaged. as George Allen was wont to say..."the future is now".

Mike Mayock came out today with his latest and greatest mock draft. He has the Browns drafting Matthews at number 4. LMAO. Yeah, the Browns need to correct their 15 drought by drafting a right tackle. What an ass. This guy is actually worse that Kiper Jr, if that's possible. He has Manziel going on the 11th overall. I would love to book his action too.

The Browns reportedly conducted an "expensive and thorough analytics study" before the draft that "ultimately pointed to" Teddy Bridgewater showing the "best success rate" in the 2014 quarterback class.

Per CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora, the $100,000 study was spearheaded by club president Alec Scheiner. The team commissioned "decades of successful NFL quarterbacks" and took into consideration "all sorts of variables," while incorporating both "film review and advanced metrics." La Canfora reports analytics are "taken very seriously within the Browns' organization," and believes Bridgewater could be in play for Cleveland at the Nos. 26 and 35 overall picks.

FOX Sports' Jay Glazer reports the Texans are seeking three first-round picks and a second-round pick if they are to trade down from No. 1 overall.

This is essentially the same thing ESPN's Ed Werder reported Tuesday evening. Glazer added that the Texans' demands are on a "sliding scale," which means the further they have to move back, the more the team trading up will have to surrender. If the Texans stick to their demands, they'll pick first tomorrow night.

I love Bridgewater but have to LOL at using analytics to determine success rate of a player who has never played a down in the NFL in his life.


Also, Footwedge is a ratard.

Houston would basically tell us to fuck off with any deal that didnt include our 4th.
