"Worthless pro days". SMH. 30 teams that attended these "worthless pro days". Oh I know, the Browns have shown a marked propensity of clairvoyance when drafting quarterbacks over the past 15 years, haven't they?Commander of Awesome;1598422 wrote:Was just about to point that out.

So let me get this straight. You are saying "well, we attended pro days in the past and we failed miserably in our analysis each and every time so the solution is not to attend pro days". Is that your argument? Bbbbaaahhhhwwwwaaahhhahahahaha.like_that;1598427 wrote:The browns went to the pro days of those other QBs they drafted. LOLFAIL

Are you trying to tell us the Browns don't get ESPN?
Are you also trying to tell us they won't have the QBs they want to see up close come into their own private workout?

The worst part about this is, you're at least 55 years old, and still act the way you do.Footwedge;1598409 wrote:Pretty warm there Slick. Lemme see. The Browns have had a total of ZERO quality quarterbacks since they returned to the league in 1999. ZERO. So now we have a quarterback that was the first ever to win a Heisman as a freshman. A guy who smashed PASSING RECORDS in the vaunted SEC for 2 straight years. A guy who completed over 70% of his passes tearing Alabama's defense apart in 2 straight years. We wont even talk about all his scrambling rushing yards that he amassed.
Yet, inspite of that, Ray Farmer has better things to do than watch his pro day. He's a fucking idiot with that mindset.
So what's to be gained by going there? Isn't watching him on film enough? Well. the team that has Peyton Manning thought it was a good time invested. Yes Denver people were there. New England has Brady. They were there. Breez's team? They were there. Big Ben's team? They were there. Russel Wilson's team? They were there. The Packers with Rogers, they thought it a good idea to be there.
But Ray Farmer apparently has better things to do.
And so...the house cleaning was completed a short while ago and a raw rookie GM takes over....and says "fuck that" when it comes to watching the most exciting quarterback to come out of college in probably 2 decades.
Typical Browns crap.
Been a Browns fan for 55 years and attended the 64 title game. Have seen 50 years of crud. Ray Farmer appears to be yet another bum in the Browns continuum of "commitment to mediocrity".
It is pretty clear to me that the Browns have no interest in drafting this guy. Well good luck with Bortles or Bridgewater...and have fun watching Manziel in the Pro Bowl every year smashing passing and rushing records while the team continues to place a shit product on the field.

How about the Cavs making the playoffs the year after Lebron left?Footwedge;1598414 wrote:No...get it right. What I said was that Prior "should": be catching balls instead of throwing them. And he should be. He would make a GREAT red zone receiver. If I'm not mistaken, Oakland's experiment" with Prior is officially over. As usual, my prediction was correct. I continue to amaze, don't I?
How about the Breowns being mathematically still in the playoffs when in fact they were eliminated?
I could keep going, but you get the idea.

You are making statements about a man who has done nothing but improve this roster. But because he doesn't attend the pro day of ONE qb, you think he is a complete failure. I'd say you need to focus, retard.Footwedge;1598966 wrote:Have you ever...and I mean ever posted something with a thought behind it? Focus, retard...focus.

My 2 Cents:
I know Farmer said he was going to bring Manziel in for a private workout, but what is the harm in also going to his Pro-Day? Seems dumb to simply skip it because you're going to get a private workout.
Didn't he do this same thing with all the QBs?

I know its Twitter, but I posted this already before.

I know. But it was also reported they were not interviewing Manziel etc. It turns out he has just been really coy about all the QBs they are looking at. Wouldne surprise me in the lease if he has been sending scouts to all this stuff and just making it look like they arent.ohiobucks1;1599148 wrote:Fair enough. I've never seen that reported.

He seems to really not want to tip his hand at all.

I love it... no one has a clue what the Browns are/aren't planning to do. In my opinion, this is a welcome change to the previous regime. Farmer should be commended on the fact that he hasn't tipped his hand, you know being a "rookie GM" and all.
Some of you guys need to temper you hard on for Manziel. Did you go to his pro day? Were you at the combine? Have you watched every bit of film? The answer is no. You may think you know the position of QB and you may think he's the best option, but the truth is that you don't know anymore than the rest of us, so stop acting like it's a travesty if we don't select Manziel. If you're constantly going to QQ, become a Jets fan and you'll be in familiar territory. In the mean time, Farmer is steadily improving this team on both sides of the football while also bringing in leaders and winners. But yeah, he's an idiot and has no idea what he's doing...

The funniest part about this is footwedge literally created this argument himself. I am pretty sure a good amount of us already stated that we like Manziel.
