Wonder if we take a shot at Bryant or Abbrederis ?

There are still some "name" players left on the board. I wonder why Yankey has fallen so far from where some projected him to be taken. I'd like Dion Bailey, but perhaps best WR remaining...

I think DJ was on the same page with me , when I said many folks had Yankey ranked way to high !

I wonder if either makes it to 127.

j/c

Bryant
Shov
Yankey

In the 4th round, I guess I'd like WR Abrederis, if only for the way he schooled OSU's Roby last year. I think he's faster than you think (4.50), has great hands, and runs good routes. If they want an ILB, Skov is still there - I know a lot of guys here think highly of him, and he would fill a need. There's also still some pretty good CB's available in McGill, Watkins (Sammy's bro), and Desir. I don't know if they're starter quality, but they'd be good depth and special teams guys.

At 7, you might address the Alex Mack situation with C Linsley, take the best FB, or maybe ILB Max Bullough from MSU - if he falls that far. I spend most of my Saturdays watching Big Ten, being an OSU fan, and I thought Bullough was one of the top LB's in the league. Good size (6-4, 249), speed (4.71), and a playmaker. But his stock fell, he got suspended from their bowl game (don't know the details) and he went from being what I thought was one of the top ILB's to being ranked a 5th - 6th rounder.

I don't think there's any filling the newly created hole at WR (thanks, Josh) in the draft, but maybe there's a trade to be made for a current NFL starting WR with a 2015 2nd or 3rd rounder. Heck, the Niners got Stevie Johnson from Buffalo for a conditional 2015 4th rounder.

At this point I might not want to reach for a receiver. They usually don't do much as rookies. I think I look FA for that position.

I think I would add another corner to the mix with the 4th rounder.

Wonder part two ... If Farmer would use that extra 4th ( next year ) to move into this draft ? So many questions, so little time !

I really like Brandon Coleman WR from Rutgers...he's the best resemblance of Mike Evans for Manziel to have in Cleveland 6'5 225 4.56 speed...poor QB play affected him...I'd love to add him...Shaq Evans made some pretty nice plays when I watched Hundley from UCLA last year...we have what a 4th rounder and 7th rounder...hoping we can nab Brandon Coleman WR in round 4...maybe trade our 4th rounder from Buffalo to move in the 5th round...maybe take another ILB or WR or lineman...then maybe S Ladler will be hanging around in round 7...seems every year some mid to late round safeties fall later than expected.

Surprised to see safety Dion Bailey still available he'll probably go within the first 10 picks of round 4...I know a lot of mocks had him round 2-3 material...then again every year there's random drops of players free falling...we shall see!

The ship of quality WRs has most likely sailed at this point. It is a position that takes some serious time to acclimate so might as well stick to our smash mouth theme at this point and pick up another WR off the FA heap. Looking at the quality of what still is available to us in the fourth round and our needs, I like the prospect of picking up another OL (Yankey, Stork, Fleming?) or ILB (Skov) or S (Bailey). Without our best receiver, we will need a stout line to run the ball and a feared defense. I like what Farmer and company have done so far and Go Browns!

There are four players where I would take the guy instead of trading back to the high 5th and picking up an extra pick if it was an option:

1) WR Martavis Bryant
2) ILB Shayne Skov
3) ILB Christian Jones
4) FS Dion Bailey

After that, I think the addition to our team drops off a lot, and I'd rather have two picks. JMO.

My faves - some are a little too early, some a little too late, but we only have 2 picks left and I wanted to make a list.

4th
David Yankey, OG, Stanford
*Martavis Bryant, WR, Clemson
Pierre Desir, CB, Lindenwood
Ed Reynolds, FS, Stanford
*A.J. McCarron, QB, Alabama
Shayne Skov, ILB, Stanford
*Trai Turner, OG, LSU
*Daniel McCullers, DT, Tennessee
Devin Street, WR, Pittsburgh
Bryan Stork, C, Florida State
Brandon Coleman, WR, Rutgers
*Kevin Norwood, WR, Alabama
Marqueston Huff, FS, Wyoming

7th/FA
*Jeff Janis, WR, Saginaw Valley
Max Bullough, ILB, Michigan State
*Brett Smith, QB, Wyoming
Colt Lyerla, TE, Oregon
*L'Damian Washington, WR, Missouri
Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, OT, McGill (Canada)
*Corey Linsley, C, Ohio State
Ryan Carrethers, DT, Arkansas State
Garrett Gilbert, QB, Southern Methodist
*Shaquelle Evans, WR, UCLA
Blake Annen, TE, Cincinnati
Francis Bah, DE, Liberty

I like Bailey. I think that he would be a quality guy ..... if he's still there 27 picks from now.

I have a feeling that we are going to use that 4th rounder from the Bills next year to move back into this draft, probably into the 5th round. I think that there will be quality there.

I think the Eagles have to be looking at either Bailey or Huff. Only exception I could see is Jones or Ellis or McCullers at NT but I think they are going safety.

Washington could go safety but I think they take one of the ILBs.

I would love to see the Browns get Trai Turner OG LSU. Very athletic and strong run blocker. If he would have went back to school next year he would have been the top G prospect. Him and Botonio would give the Browns 2 athletic Guards to impliment their zone blocking scheme.

Scratch my last post. I saw the post above that mentioned him as available but he was chosen by Carolina in the 3rd.

Woops. I missed the Panthers taking Turner. I think that they got great value, and a really good player there.

My bad on Turner, I never marked him off of my sheet...

Didn't some people have us taking Yankey in the second round?
