Robiskie was claimed by Jacksonville a few minutes ago.

Looks like Mangini whiffed on Momass too. Heckert whiffed when he kept him and Robo on the roster to begin with this year... But I will not crucify Heck for that.. overall he's done good. he's going to have some missed.. unfortuantely both were our starting WR's. Drafting he's done well.

Another Mangini draft failure bites the dust.

About damn time.

So yes, while it was a miss by Mangini when he got bent over by his GM in his 1st year as coach, it is now also a miss and a huge foot in the mouth of Heckert IMO.

What did you expect him to say?
"Yup, our receivers sure suck ass but we just don't have enough picks to fix it all at once, and since we don't even have enough dline on the roster to field a team so we made that the priority instead. All we can do is hope and pray we can salvage at least one Guy from the group."
WHY, oh why, would he try not to shatter the egos of what is typically the biggest premadonas in the NFL?

It's not only about words Crow, but the words and the actions as a whole.

Swing & a miss by Heckert ...but blaming the coach he didn't hire was nice while it lasted.

Now let's hope these drafts by Heckert turn out to be as fantastical as you all seem to believe they are.

Now that was a good post Gabe, even though you kinda just called out one of the Golden Boys in Brownsdom right now.

I wish Robo luck,That said. He just isnt the type of receiver the browns want on there roster. Hes not physical enough nor does he seperate well in space.
