Draft Open Thread pt. 2

Cleveland Browns Day 1 Picks:

  • Round 1: No. 5 overall--Alex Mack, C, Cal
  • Round 2: No. 36 overall
  • Round 2: No. 50 overall
  • Round 2: No. 52 overall

 

 

 

This is also an open thread for ALL of today's action! Please try to refrain from creating individual threads that state what you specifically think about a pick -- that's what this post and any subsequent posts that Chris or I make are for.  With that said, if a late-breaking trade appears while I'm gone, feel free to make a FanPost about it until either Chris or myself have the chance to make a front page post about it.

 

Lets hope we can get some quality talent in the 2nd round!

So NE trades down a second time, and Green Bay selects Matthews, that’s one LB gone we can take at 36

If we could get him in the 2nd round I’d be ecstatic. Maybe we can trade up with one of our 6 rounders for him.

Outside of his injury history, the kid is a gangster. I think at times he was a bit of a pansy ass, maybe other teams thought the same thing.

Just saw the steroids guy you guys were talking about.

Those are his real arms, he actually got ridiculous infections from the ’roids and was draining pus from his own biceps with a syringe at one point. He is now upset because he has a scar from it and his arms are uneven.

There was a special on some news/discovery-type program on him that I saw about a year ago. Disgusting.

I really think he hit rock bottom last year. If that’s not the worst we can expect, I think ManKok deals him mid year and probably gets more than Hixon, a 2nd, and a 5th.

This is true, but it always has been the Super bowl winner last and the Super bowl loser next to last in the draft though

Currently only the SB winner and loser are determined by post season. That’s why the Chargers picked at 16 despite making the playoffs.

Totally. As Brad said, they are thinking about changing it so the last 10(?) teams are the playoff teams, which seems to make a little more sense to me at least.

by Bernie19Kosar on Apr 25, 2009 7:57 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Please, name me the games he hasn’t had success against top corners. He had great games against any team that played man coverage, and that is the only time a receiver is “going against” a cornerback.

He kills press coverage. He gauges his speed and settles into zones. He does everything right as a receiver.

The problem is that he doesn’t have top end speed, and won’t be a number one receiver on a team.

What they said: 1) he runs great routes. 2) he’s a coach’s son who has “been on that field before.” 3) he’ll fit in next to Braylon, assuming he stays. 4) any guy who anchors the OSU 4×100 team can’t be that slow

They came out of commercial straight to the pick and weren’t talking about who else the Browns should’ve considered.

From cleveland.com:

Veikune is a hard-working, lean defenseman with top-notch speed for the position. His speed and agility may necessitate a permanent shift to Outside Linebacker in the NFL. He enjoyed a very productive career at Hawaii and is the type of high-motor, energetic presence that can cause fits along the line of scrimmage. He sheds blocks well and uses his hands to his advantage, often times engaging first and dictating position. Veikune had some experience standing up on the edge at Hawaii, experience that makes him a versatile project of sorts if an NFL team wanted to alter his role. He lacks the elite type of athleticism that may be needed to shift to OLB, and due to his lack of size he can sometimes be engulfed by bulky tackles. Veikune’s lack of ideal height and bulk for defensive-end will likely lead to a shift to OLB in a 3-4 scheme at the next level, where his energy and motor will be well served.
