    No why would their teams let them go for nothing?

    THey are both free agents this offseason, that is why I brought those 2 guys up.....help coach the "young" receivers and that way we don't have to spend the #6 pick on a WR.

    Heyward is looking real nice as a 2nd round pick after destroying Love and the other OL from Arkansas.
  • Commander of Awesome
    I doubt he lasts til the 2nd round.

    I have seen Heyward listed in the mid 20's to mid 30's area.
    That might change from last night.
  • Laley23
    Heyward played himself into a mid first round pick last night, but unlike in basketball....players have to go through workouts and the combine. End of year performances don't usually end up nattering nearly the same as the NCAA Tourney does to the NBA.

    Heyward played well last night, but I would be surprised if it changed his projections. He is probably a first rounder, but I always thought Laurinaitis was as well, and he slipped.

    And Laurinatis is playing like he should have been a first rounder as well.

    Carolina asked for permission and will interview Rob Ryan for their head coach opening.
  • mucalum49
    Hope he gets the job. I don't want to lose track of his press conferences. He's too funny.
  • Sonofanump
    I think that Rob Ryan is a very good NFL defensive coordinator, I just do not see him being a NFL head coach with his personality.
  • OQB
    I agree, I think he is under the Romeo Crennel catagory....Great Defensive Coordinator, bad head coach.

    If we hire ANY of those guys coming in I'll shoot myself.

    YUCK!

    Gruden or Fisher sound good though.

    I like Vincent Jackson, but I am not sold on Sydney Rice at all....

    Why?
  • zach24oz
    If I were the Browns, I would take Sidney Rice...Im noty sure why you wouldnt take him?
  • wes_mantooth
    No reason...just seems like a guy that wouldn't fit the conditions in cleveland....a gut feeling

    No disrespect, and not really know what conditions you are talking about. But Rice is the guy who tried to come back from hip surgery before he was realistically able to in a season that was going nowhere, while Vincent Jackson sat out over half the year because of selfish reasons causing his team a playoff spot.
  • Hb31187
    Only reason that Sidney might not fit in Cleveland is that hes an almost strictly vertical receiver...And the knock on Mccoy according to Browns fans is his lack of arm strength.
  • Sage
    Fuck a WR, we can get them later (Mike Wallace--3rd rounder) as long as we're smart.

    We need a line-backer, a DE, another corner, a RB to compliment Hillis, a whole right side to the line....
