So you think that Timmons will not fall past the Bengals and that Okoye is falling, both based on the combine?
You have that exactly backwards. Okoye showed up and performed well (running a 4.97 40, even), while Timmons's issues are well documented.
Really, I'd be surprised at this point if Timmons were taken before the Giants have a crack at him. FSU's pro day is on March 15th, so there's still an opportunity to help himself and make you a sad, sad man.

No, what I meant is that Okoye will move lower number wise and that I don't think we will get to Timmons because he is the premier LB in the draft and there are teams that pick before the Giants that have LB needs... the ones I named. I could see the Niners or Skins taking Okoye depending on what the Cards do.
Patrick Willis will be fine by me, since he has the speed to play OLB anyway.
Edit: Hey I never mentioned Timmons' combine performance anyway. Didn't even get to see him. I did see Willis and Poz though.

Droughns is either getting traded or released in the next couple of day. He has a roster bonus over a mil. and we aren't going to pay it. Like I said the Lewis deal is only a year, and Droughns is already over 30. All signs point to Peterson being the pick. If Droughns and Lewis are a beast then Peterson and Lewis is just a monster. Also I have heard nothing about us trading the pick to Falcons. I could see us trading out of the pick if something great came along and taking Pittman in the second round if he's there. That would fill the need at RB. I just hope to god we don't take Brady Quinn.
As for Timmons that guy is beast. I hope he gets in some sort of gay porn scandal and he falls to the second round so the Browns can take him.

There was a blurb in the local Atlanta paper about the Falcons "talking" to the Browns. I think Schaub, the 10th pick, and maybe one of our 4th round picks is a great deal. If the Browns absolutely want to pick up RB, Michael Bush may be around for the 10th pick.

I'm not sold on Okoye. My opinion of him rose slightly with the added weight he showed at the combine, but not that much. If we do in fact go defensive line with the 11th pick I would prefer Branch, and would even come way happy with Carriker. Those two guys are ready to start and contribute now. With all the money we've spent on defense this offseason, I would rather not have a 20 year rookie, who in addition to adjusting the major change in game speed at the NFL level, will most likely have to learn a new position(to my knowledge hes never played NT in a 3-4, or DE in any system).
The prospect Okoye having to go up against bigger and stronger O-linemen, many of which have been in the league since he was 5 or 6 years old isn't a pleasent one. We're ready to compete now, we dont' need a guy who MAY be good in 2-3 years.
Unless Branch or Ginn are still on the board at 11 I would rather us trade down grab Carriker, Willis, Jarrett, or Meachem mid round.

I'm sure there are a lot of teams "talking" to the Browns about the pick. Bush has a steel plate in his leg right now I wouldn't touch that. I really don't think the Browns need a quarterback. I don't think theres enough value in that trade for the Browns to make it. If it was Schaub, switch the first, and your 2nd and 3rd I would say do it. It's totally lopsided but I don't want the Browns to trade the pick and pass on a running back who will be a stud for years and years

What about Byrd and Klopfenstein? Weren't those two guys first-day picks last year?Big Zep said:
My sentiments exactly. The Romeo-Weis connection has me worried but I'm not sure how much input Romeo has on the draft pick anyways. My guess is it's all Savage especially since this will be Romeo's last season if the Browns don't perform.

I really don't see this happening just because Schaub isn't a proven quarterback in the league.
It will be a very interesting draft if Oakland doesn't go with Russell or Detroit doesn't take Thomas for some reason.

Looks like there were reports around of it.

But the problem is, he is also a guy I'd like backing up Frank Gore. We need a big beast of a RB for short yardage and goalline situations. Failing to convert on short yardage was a glaring weakness, not to mention if god forbid Frank the Tank gets hurt, we're pretty much screwed as far as running the ball.

Levens was never a fullback. He played running back.
Tapeh did a pretty fine job his first season as a starter. Blazed the way for Westbrooks 1200 yards rushing. Needs to work on his hands a little, but very solid.
He will get a nice Challenge from Jason Davis, who splits the RB/FB role/

Aren't fullbacks technically considered running backs?ColdBlooded33 said:
So Adam Schefter is reporting Corey Dillon nixed his visit with the Bills, because he doesnt want to play there. Says he rather play in a place like Philadelphia.
This sounds familiar. Player wants to play in Philly. Front Office wants the player!

till the front office low balls him, and the player moves on to another destination
