This. Quit jerking off to Twitter reactions and see what happens. You can't hit a home run every pick. If the majority of our other picks turn out well, nobody will GAF about Louis if he doesn't pan out.

This. I'm happy with the draft no matter what happens with all these remaining picks. If the BRowns can get 3-4 high quality players out of this draft its more than a success. We have a ton of high picks next year too.

I can see getting upset with the pick if he has an awful training camp, not much positive stuff in preseason, can't get on the field in his first season. etc.

But 5 min after the pick? haha

I am relaxed, just giving my opinion. They were reach picks, regardless of how they turned out, 2 of these guys weren't draftable. Get them in the 7th and take a flier on Jones/Cooper/Billings. Not that hard.

Screaming, "he won't even be on the team next year he's a bum!!!!!" 5 min after the pick is called the opposite of relaxed.

Wasn't screaming, stop being a BR and insinuating emotion to my posts. Just calling a spade a spade.

We're going to run some 8 receiver sets this year, apparently. Maybe they are thinking DB for Ricardo Louis, otherwise there aren't going to be roster spots for all of these guys unless we plan to cut every receiver already on the roster.

What is that, 5 WR's already?

Maybe they're drafting 5 hoping that 1 maybe 2 pan out.

From everything I've seen the Princeton guy will be A TE, but 5 pass catchers yeah. I actually like Hollywood Higgins more than the last 2 WR they took.

We are witnessing first hand why teams prefer having football people running their football operations instead of the lawyers and bean counters that comprise our front office brain trust.

The level of incompetence we have witnessed these past few days is staggering.

To be fair, are there many left on the roster you'd keep?

Is it bad that his post didn't even phase me?

Normally when you see something that stupid you think about how stupid it is and how to respond. With his posts I just casually glance over them and move on and think "ha, iggy gon iggy".

Quantity over Quality is the new mantra of this regime.

The only good thing about them stock piling all these picks is thankfully these clowns likely won't be the ones still around to make them.

Hue Jackson deserved better than this trash.

They let all our free agents with any talent go and expect 4th and 5th rounders to turn around a 3 win team.

Yeah that's what I do as well. It was just golden I'm surprised he waited till today to make it.

I like the draft. From what I read, a lot of the picks rate highly in the analytics department and although it seems we drafted a bunch of WRs, 1 of them is expected to convert to DB and the other is a TE.

Who really knows how developed and accurate the analytics are but it seems the Browns got guys they wanted while acquiring future draft assets. Good draft.

All those draft picks and this is still a 2-3 win team lacking viable NFL talent at so many positiions, and if RGIII gets hurt they might struggle to win a game.

I hope Sashi is proud of himself right now.

You were expecting a boatload of 3rd, 4th, and 5th round picks to transform this team beyond three wins in 2016?

No. I was pointing out how big a farce their entire strategy was of letting all their best players leave only to be replaced by those midlings draft picks as if that was going to result in anything but a sad team.

Sashi is a loser, and is the only guy on the planet (other than Jimmy's wallet) that thinks we are going to improve the team by letting go all of our best players and replacing them with 4th rounders.

Browns fans deserve better than this guy.

Come on man...their "best players" they are replacing got them 3 wins last year. Whatever they've been doing since 99 hasn't been working. Time for a complete teardown and new approach. You are the type of fan other fans hate. Your views of the team and what they should be are so completely unrealistic it's unreal and then you whine. This simply is not and has been a good team. It's time to try something different
