    He's a fucking douche. There's no way that report is true.
  • like_that
    Did he work with the Browns previously and was fired or something? He has had an agenda against the browns for the past 18 months. As S&L said, he is being a complete fucking douche. He is the only national reporter who reports about the browns, and it is never anything good.

    Anyway, LOL at this mock http://www.nfl.com/draft/2015/mock-drafts/bucky-brooks/245603?campaign=Facebook_cfb_brooks.

    1. Mariotta is not dropping outside the top 6.
    2. If he did I would be livid if the Browns passed up on him.
    3. LOL at his justification of the browns to pass up on Mariotta. "Oh, the browns signed Hartline, so this obviously gives them room to pass up on a top rated QB." lolfail.

    I know I said this before in regards to NFL.com Mocks, but they just let any one that works there do these. Say what you will about Kiper/McShay, but more often than not their Mocks are pretty realistic.

    These guys are just out to get clicks, so they do a bunch of crazy shit.

    To your 3 points.

    1.) I could see him falling a little bit, won't be far though.
    2.) Agree
    3.) Agree

    Exactly. The Browns were active in FA last year. I'd think they might get a few comp picks in 2016.

    Whitner got to see the new Nike uniforms for a photoshoot and called them "the Oregon Ducks of the NFL" with 9 color combos.....

    Whatever it is, I am sure we will see a lot of butt hurt and then an article from Jason la confora explaining how the new uniforms are truly a sign of dysfunction in Berea.

    Lol. Or how they "screwed it up again"... Just like the helmets.
  • Benny The Jet
    Saw Whitner talking about it on Twitter, then said something along the lines of "Well apparently I'm not supposed to talk anymore about the uniforms" haha. Is there a date set when these are supposed to be unveiled?
  • iclfan2
    April 19th. Whitner also said Cleveland will be proud, or something to that nature.
  • Pick6
    Banner has apparently seen them and is a fan as well.
  • Benny The Jet
    Just hope it isn't a let down like the whole changing tint of orange thing

    The bolded part almost makes me want to read through Iqqy's ramblings to see if he used that description in one of his overwrought bitch-sessions.

    ALMOST.

    What impresses me most is that Pettine is old enough to have seen baby dinosaurs wander around aimlessly.

    So the punishment to the Falcons & Browns should be coming down at "any time" and Schefter is saying it will be "severe."

    Yes, Farmer was stupid but people are going to be losing their minds if the Browns lose a higher draft pick (I'd shit if they took away one of the 1st's) while other teams can deflate footballs ( and then have the audacity to expect an apology from the league-Patriots), try to trip punt returners (Tomlin/Steelers) and sign or harbor wife/girlfriend beaters (Ravens/Cowboys) and not get shit for it.

    Amen.

    They take away any picks, and I will be pissed.

    To me the Falcons penalty is going to be way more severe and will probably involve a high draft pick. I can't really see the Browns getting a severe penalty but likely it will be a monetary fine.

    Anything more than a 4th(if its a 2016) or 5th(this year) is grounds for boycott of this stupid league.

    I'd be shocked if its a draft pick for the Browns but yeah if its anything higher than a 4th the league is a complete joke.
  • Pick6
    You guys are working yourselves up over nothing. They aren't going to lose any draft picks.
