Browns to Meet with Bradford, Clausen, McCoy, and Pike

[Shep]

Not a guy in the bunch who makes it to the third round.

Cleveland Browns will spend extra pre-draft time with QBs Sam Bradford and Jimmy Clausen | cleveland.com

Well, if nothing else, the Walrus is confusing the shit out of everybody. Still weird that he said what he did. No need at all, no benefit.

If Clausen is able to work out April 9th and has a good one, watch the scrambling begin.

To give Dawg his props, I think he's right that Holmgren was listening to some other people in the room (maybe Daboll or Haskell) who really do like Clausen.

You don't think Pike makes it to the 3rd round?

[Shep]

MMMMMMMM... maybe. He's a confusing one. Good point, though.

[Shep]

That said... I wouldn't do a Browns mock that didn't include a quarterback in the first 2 rounds.

I think those extra threes are headed for RFAs like Morrison or Marshall or both.

If you're sitting at seven and choosing between Clausen and a corner... and you take the corner? Damn, Clausen better suck ass. Because that's some weird shit.

Trade up to get Bradford in the 1st, bypass Cloussen (or vice-versa), get McCoy in rd 2, Pike rd 3, get Lefevour, Brown, Kafka and whoever else floats you boat with remaining picks.

Carry 4 QB's on the roster, 2 on the practice squad and trade and/or cut the 2 we see no value in.

If this doesn't fill the void of all those QB hungry Browns fans well I guess there is always next year when a new crop and 5 million new QB threads will be started!

[Shep]

Until we get one.

It's like saying you're tired of people always whining about needing oxygen.

[Joey]

I feel we are targeting Pike and i agree. I think we can get him in the 3rd round and in 2 years it will be a steel. Steel as in hard as steel deal.

[Shep]

I think the Browns QB board goes:

Bradford
Clausen
McCoy
Pike

Right now. Pike hasn't had a very impressive draft season, though. In some ways, Kafka and Tom's guy Zac Robinson have out thrown him.

I think The Fever is in freefall.

[Shep]

OBR says the Browns have NOT excluded Clausen as the #7 pick, as formerly believed.

This is good. As somebody else pointed out, make Buffalo (or somebody else), trade up and get him from us. Give us another 2nd.

I'm hoping Clausen has an AWESOME pro day throwing to "my man" Golden Tate!

GREAT stuff Dan! A little irony that the QB from the Golden State is throwing to Golden's Tate.
