Dear Joe Haden,
The Cleveland based Buckeye fans will boo you out of town.
Love,
Braylon Edwards
my comment is lengthy but worth the look,thnx to those who read it
Alright, so heres my input on our draft…
Joe Haden-Great pick, before all the Berry-hype, this was the guy every1 in Cleveland wanted…now we have our Revis-type CB
TJ Ward- I predicted Taylor Mays at #38, but basically i was just predicting a hard-hitting safety and didnt realize there was one besides Mays, i think he will start at FS in Game 1…Hes Dawkins like (hard worker, hard hitter, has cover ability when needed). In a yr or 2, we should compare his stats w/ T.Mays! lol
Hardesty- I like the pick, he has Jamal Lewis type ball carrier vision; when he finds that hole, he bursts thru it, bounces off one tackle, then schools the db’s and gets to the endzone…i just wish we woulda given up our 3rd 5th rounder, not the 1st 5th
Colt McCoy- GREATEST THING THAT COULDA HAPPENED TO THE BROWNS FOR ECONOMIC REASONS…he will not be getting payed tons of money while he is sitting for the yr or 2, which he wouldve at #38
Lauvao- Oline depth is never bad…i think i could agree that Bruce Campbell also mightve been good b/c of his potential, BUT Lauvao has played at LT, LG, and RG. Versitility=Mangini, Heckert
The last 3 are good cuz of what they bring. Asante brings depth, ST production, and a hopeful future starter. Mitchell is big, Edwards w/ hopefully less dropped balls and wayyy less the risk. Geather is f***ing 6′7″ish and around 300lbs, if u havent noticed, thats big! (he could end up being good, tipping alotta passes and maybe blocking some field goals.
A timid draft. You could have switched the players picked in the 2nd and 6th and nobody would know the difference. Both players are SS that have to play in the box and can’t cover. Hayden will start and be very good, Hardesty is a good player and that OG will start by next year. All the rest will be gone in 3 years.
paulbip,
seeing that mccoy won’t even start playing by year 2, I doubt he will be gone by year 3.
The Safeties are the only puzzling thing for me. We have Abe Elam who from what I saw last year, is an “in the box safety” yet we still draft 2 of the same type? thats confusing. I hope TJ Ward works out, but I dont have high hopes.
Carlton Mitchell could be one of the big steals of this draft. He’s big, ran a 4.49 (i believe) and has the ability to get a lot of yards after the catch. He will be more productive then Robo. The other 6th rounder (Geathers) has potential. Hes ginormous, at 6’8” a 7’2” wingspan and 300 pounds. Cant say much more about him cause I dont know it.
Realistically, Mitchell can be a good slot/#4 WR this season, Hardesty could get around 10 touches a game with Harrison and another back, Haden will at least be a nickel corner and Ward has a good chance to play because of the lack of depth at S. Lets hope he pans out, but even if he doesnt thats 3 contributors in year 1. Year 2, Mitchell could be starting, Haden could be starting, and Colt could be starting. I dont know if that means this is a good draft, or just shows how weak our team is as a whole.
