At least we're not Minnesota when it comes to drafting.
Really we're no different. Other than the year with Favre they've been a QB away for a decade now.

Just like us they are avoiding the position for a "safe" pick and will be happy with 7-8 wins next year with no risk to the GM's job because he didn't have enough hair on his peaches to go all in on a franchise changer like Johnny.

Some teams prefer to continue to be irrelevant I guess.

It'll be ok. I won't get so upset as to ignore someone on a message board.

I don't think Barr is a terrible pick. Similar to a Ziggy Ansah last year. Very raw, but unbelievable upside.

Gilbert>>Barr.

Some didn't even have him going in 1st round let alone 9th.

Most everyone had gilbert in the top 12.

You've been the bully. First it's with the putdowns and now with the grammar.

I hope Gilbert is good. I am just so tired of our drafts not panning out.

Lewan is a good pick for them.

They've greatly improved their OL the last 2 seasons.

When you're QB position is the Bermuda Triangle addressing any position other than it is nothing more than pissing in the wind because you aren't winning shit.

It is the most important position in all of professional sports, and it is so bad here that we have conditioned ourselves that journeymen Kelly Holcomb types are acceptable starting QB's in the NFL.

Would've not been a fan of Lewan either.

If they were really trying to move up for an OT then Farmer is in full blown 5 year plan mode.

He is looking to build a team apparently in the mold of Eric Mangini where we play 13-10 games ever week and have to scratch and claw for every point.

Tears must be required this year....and JFF's looking a little Quinn-esque over there.

Grossi is puffing his chest on Twitter right now that he had the Browns taking Gilbert at pick 26 in his first mock draft in February.

I agree having a well built team is just the worst idea.

With Gilbert, Browns will be able to really attack on defense. Even with a 3 WR set, you can go 1-1 with Haden, Gilbert and Skrine with Whitner over the top. Lot of different looks this defense can throw at you.

I see JFF or TBW falling to 26. I'll be pretty upset if they don't get one. But Gilbert is a good pick (though not sure a trade was necessary).

Rams made a good pick with Donald.

DL is gonna be scary good next year.

Also, JFF seems like the kind of dick who refuses to completely fail. Especially with this "fall" and his motivation. I'm on board with taking him now that the 4th wasn't used
for it lol

Folks, i'm getting worried. We have heard from FW yet. Should we send a cruiser by his home, or wait until Manziel is actually drafted?

Edit:
Nevermind.
