Roderic Johnson is bad. He was abused in camp. He's soft. He is very similar to Cameron Erving. Highly agreed...Last prior to the draft I warned the board (as Roderick was being mocked in round 2-3) of the same issues you noted...And Roderick ends up on the ground a lot, which is another reason I warned about Cameron Irving prior to him getting drafted. I hope he can at least be a solid back-up for us, but we will be in trouble if he is starting.

no matter who we put there, it isn't Joe - it's going to be a step backward.
The good news is that we don't need the guy to play like Joe - if they can pull off a Ross Verba level of play, that'd be great.
Browns is the Browns
... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

Third best but you’re close! That meant he was better than one of Walter Jones, Orlando Pace or Jonathan Ogden.
That being said, I’m so depressed about Joe. My first time meeting the Dawgtalkers was his first game as a Brown. I bought his jersey. Every time I think about it, I frown.

Ross Verba had that swag before it was a term lol I always liked his attitude, both he and tre Johnson were some of the tougher lineman we've had...I liked Fraley and Tucker as well.

Remember Pete, Joe didn't play in pre season last year . We saw a bunch of Coleman and Co. at that spot ..

Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.
