Browns are hitting this draft out of the park

What exactly would you get for Colt McCoy, a date with his sister? Certainly nothing of football value.

YOu're being a wimp Calzone, lifelong Cleveland fans when all is said and done in the end accept this draft as being pretty good for Cleveland standards. Reggie Hodges was the best Browns player on the roster in 2010 and he's coming back from his injury this year, no way we were going to draft a punter!! A healthy Hodges gives them one more win in 2011.

Colt McCoy stinks and everyone knows it. I'm sure they would have taken a 7th rounder for him this year 3rd day of the draft and no one would give that up for him.

In the end they probably shouldn't have traded 3 picks to move up 1 spot and they likely could have gotten Weeden at 37 and a better o-lineman at 22, but they got two rookies to compete for the right tackle job which was needed. And Travis Benjamin is really fast. The last Cleveland championship came two years before I was born, I'm getting on up toward 50 and have seen zero in any sport in my lifetime, when you put it into that perspective, this draft was fine (where's clyde?)

The Browns abortion of a draft cost them one game.

Weeden is pathetic.

Trent Richardson -- other than one highlight reel 8-yard run was terrible -- and Schwartz wasn't doing much as the side of the O-line opposite the one Joe Thomas was on was getting blown up left and right.

The Browns defense played incredible and didn't get a break as the offense couldn't stay on the field.

The Browns defense picks Vick 4 times -- and they weren't cheap picks on deep balls either -- they were good picks that setup great field position and one of them was even returned for a TD by a linebacker.

The defense also stripped Shady McCoy and he lost a fumble, which is a major rarity for him.

Force 5 turnovers, none of them cheap ones on deep balls that are like punts, and you still lose 17-16 thanks to Weeden's solid 12-for-35 with 0 TD's and 4 INT's and Richardson's 39 yards on 19 carries plus two dropped passes.

Vick was so pathetic.. throwing into triple coverage, staring down recievers.. the birds let cleveland hang around. Our defense was great.. the only player on the field worse than Vick on Saturday? Weeden.

Vick keeps it up and we are a 5 win team.

The Browns defense is A LOT better than people think.

However, they might start to wear down if the offense consistently turns the ball over and can't stay on the field for more than 3 plays at a time.

They are also going to lose the star corner Haden to suspension.

Vick and the Eagles offense will be fine.

browns have a very good pass defense. Shady McCoy ran all over them though. and with that fact... andy reid calls 56 pass plays against a pass defense that is better than our pass offense.

Vick has nowhere to go but up. even getting injured would be better than last weeks display.
