Feel free to dig through my posts and find a single one that doesn't call Manziel a piece of trash worthy of a spot in the NFL. -
AutomatikYou've been the extreme opposite of FW regarding Manziel this entire time. I remember you blasting Cleveland for the pick.

I am not disputing that. You claimed you were laughed at. This is 100% bullshit. Outside of footwedge and Iqqy nobody was bullish on Jff.sleeper;1792021 wrote:???

There's a lot of good shit in this thread.
You can summarize this entire thread with the phrase "sleeper is always right".
Edit: Maybe people weren't directly saying Manziel was going to win Super Bowls, but a lot of people were hedging their bets by not taking a position. Only dlazz and I really went hard after Manziel as being straight garbage. That takes balls. -

sleeperPretty incredible that two of the posters calling me out are the same ones who hedged their bets on JFF. Going through and reading some of the historical threads you can see the trend quite clearly:
Sleeper = "Manziel sucks, will never win anything, is garbage, trash, terrible"
Everyone else "Manziel could be really good!"

Congrats on predicting a QB that just got drafted will suck though. Went out in a limb there! That's like me bragging about saying Weeden would be trash. Nothing to really to boast about. -

The irony here is you are currently hedging your argument LOL.
Thanks for proving my point. -

The reality is, I have been 100% correct on every Cleveland QB ever drafted with no hedging of my bets. I am the only poster who consistently makes predictions that end up being correct more often than not. Let me know when you grow some balls and start giving an actual opinion instead of just flailing around like a fish out of water. -

Outside of BR and weeden, and JFF nuthuggers I can't think of anyone who thought any of the QBs the browns drafted would be good. Really went on a limb there lil guy. I could thump my chest just as much as you did. lolfailsleeper;1792044 wrote:Sorry for not sifting through 1000's of pages of internet threads to find more evidence.

Owner came back at 2 p.m. (they were supposed to have left the premises by noon, as per the agreement) and Manziel was passed out on a couch, there was evidence of cocaine all over the place, a bag of shrooms and, as said, the house was wrecked.
Another day in the life, in other words.

A) I don't even know why this article was written. There's literally no substance in there.
B) yay. Can't wait to trade the pick for an extra late round first and a couple 2nd and 3rd round picks. #Superbowl -

I think its telling you the QB the Rams want is also the one the Browns want. I'm okay with dropping back here provided we get a strong cache of picks similar to what the Titans got. I really don't think, outside of QB, there's a position the Browns need to draft at #2 that would make this team competitive over night. Maybe an OL to replace Thomas but if that's the case, Thomas needs to be moved.SportsAndLady;1792317 wrote:http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/15270927/cleveland-browns-trade-talks-involving-no-2-overall-pick-nfl-draft-uncertain-whether-make-trade

That's what I'm thinking as well. I really think the Browns want goff but the Rams kinda fucked them by moving to 1. If hue isn't sold on wentz then absolutely trade back and get a shit load of picks to help the rebuild. Hell if they can slide back enough get a shit ton of picks take either tunsil or Stanley where they trade back to and trade Thomas for either a first or 2nd I would be more than ok with thatsleeper;1792322 wrote:I think its telling you the QB the Rams want is also the one the Browns want.

Benny The JetJust got an notification on phone that Browns "better than 50% chance to trade #2 pick. Eagles want deal done today". Think it was bleacher report. Rumor is its 1st and 3rd this and next year

I'd be okay with that if its 2 1sts and 2 3rds but the greedy fan in me thinks we should get one of those 3rds moved to a 2nd. -
like_thatI hope the niners come back with the same or better offer.

SportsAndLadyTwo top QB prospects.
Browns have a top 2 pick.
Browns need a QB (desperately).
...only the Browns would trade their pick. SMH.
