Cleveland Browns 2011 Super Awesome In-Season Thread

  • OQB
    I want to know what we gave up for this pick....



    Phil Taylor from Baylor....interesting.
  • like_that
    Wtf? What did they give up.
  • grodt
    3rd rounder this year (70 overall)

    Phil Taylor, DT, Baylor - I'm confused on this pick. I wish BR were still awake to explain. I wanna know details of the trade as well. I hope we didn't give up too much for this kid.
  • OQB
    Shuan Rogers' replacement.....big time run stopper.
  • OhioStatePride2003
    All I can say is, that I have complete faith in Heckert and Co. It'll be interesting to see how the rest of the draft goes for us.

    Want to give Holmgren the benefit of the doubt, but what is this pick? Live getting picks in the trade but you pass on Julio Jones for this DT? Sure hope Holmgren knows something.
  • Fabio
    I don't mind the pick. It does leave me scratching my head with Cam Jordan on the board, but with Rhubin and Taylor, we should have a massive wall of human being in our interior DLine.

    You do realize we picked up 4 picks with that trade, one of them being a first round next year? Go back to your hiding, it was much better that way.

    Wouldn't this guy have been there at 27?? They must have really liked something about him
  • KR1245
    Didnt see that one

    Didnt see TJ Ward either
  • OQB
    lol we need D-lineman....we draft a d-lineman. What's everyone getting their panties in a bunch for???

    He was supposed to either be picked up by the Chiefs or the Jets. Can't remember what pick the jets are. 29? 30?
  • buckeyes_woowee
    Well they got A DT to go with Rubin. Now just need a couple DEs.

    Panties aren't in a bunch. I like the pick. I just like Cam Jordan more. But I'm not being paid to make the picks so I'll trust them.

    Maybe Heyward drops to us in the 2nd round as a Defensive end....

    Kinda hoping Justin Houston with that one.... Then again I love athletic defensive ends that run quick 40's. Call me Al Davis lol

  • Crimson streak
    Not quite sure I understand this trade? We could of had paea or him at 27
  • OQB
    haha Go Browns!
  • Mr Miyagi
    Taylor positives..... giant body imposing stature with sheer mass and girth inside. long arms and large hands
    Taylor negatives.....weight fluctuates to much, marginal stamina. under achiever traits does not like practice. questionable mental toughness
    In Heckert we trust i guess. i read where he compares to Pat Williams

    Him and Rubin. Our own version of the Williams brothers. We are in a division with teams that like to run the football. I dont have a problem with the pick.
  • OQB
    Exactly......

    We have a strong secondary!
    We have smart linebackers!
    We have DT's that are HUGE!


    Just need someone who can get after the QB.
  • grodt
    By everyone's admission there are some DEs that will be available in the 2nd round that would fit in perfectly. There haven't been any big DTs mentioned and that was just as big of a need. Love the two big bodies clogging the middle now.
  • KR1245
    What do we do in the 2nd?

    DE
    CB? WR?
