I don't like it either because of Taylor Price. I was hoping we could use one of the 3rd rounders on him.

Not much on the collegiate level but consider supporting cast. He is still far and away the best player on his team, best QB prospect at this point for next year's draft, comes from a pro-style offense, and ultimately has the intangibles to be a great QB on the next level.

Personally I'd take him over any QB in this year's draft.....save for Greg Paulus of course :)

Holmgren told me yesterday Browns' needs/where they pick = unlikely to take a QB early. I'm expecting S and probably a RB today.
RB eh? Any chance they would get Gerhart? I really don't know if the Browns like him at all or even talked with him...but last I saw he was projected 3rd round. If not him, who at RB today would they look into?

My guess is Dwyer from Georgia Tech. Even with his positive drug test, which was said to be ADD meds, he is best available.

If they go RB, i'm hoping it's more of a power guy. With Harrison, Jennings, and a healthy James Davis, we've got our speed guy. (hopefully)

Dwyer is the only RB I can think of off the top of my head that I would consider 2nd or 3rd round worthy. If we don't get him there are other backs we can take in later rounds. Dixon from Miss State, Gerhart from Stanford, Hardesty from Tennessee, Ben Tate from Auburn, or possibly Blount from Oregon. I wouldn't mind seeing any of those guys in a Browns uni.

I don't think the Browns need a RB. With Harrison, Davis, Hillis and Cribbs in the wildcat, I think the running is covered.

Stick with defense (I don't expect McCoy to be there and I don't want Clausen) or go OL.

WR maybe? Get an extra weapon in there for Delhomme? Or do you not want that?

I think Tate would be the best WR for the west coast offense

I really want a safety and a strong OL for the right side. I think Harrison is pretty good, especially if we get an even stronger OL from the previous year. I still don't want Clausen, but I'd take McCoy, and yes Haden was definitely a reach, but he's not a terrible pick, like Tebow or Alualau or whatever.

In 40 career starts at Florida, against some quality competition, Joe Haden gave up (0) TD passes during his career. Id not calll his selection a reach!! Quality Pick!!

They rolled the dice with Ward (some history of injury troubles) but otherwise, I like the pick. With Allen going so quickly out of the gate, I think Cleveland was worried they wouldn't get a quality safety to shore up the back end of the D.

Now they have him.

Browns fans keep saying they want a hard-hitting safety to shore up the defense...well you got him...now you're disappointed w/ the pick?

I'm not disappointed. But, so far I'm 'blah'. Nothing exciting about this so far. But, hopefully that means we're getting less sizzle, more steak.

How about Novarro Bowman with the next pick? Unless McCoy is still there, you'd almost have to pick him then.
