Browns need to find a legit starting front 4 before they go crazy and finding everything else. Having a legit front 4 can build depth because then you can trust that 3/4 starters can get after it when their is a back up in. This year, the Browns had to ride their 2 best starters because they couldnt afford not to. Those Giants team were able to rest an Osi because they had Strahan and Tuck, or rest Tuck because they had Osi and Strahan on the field, or rest Strahan because Osi and Tuck were on the field. Same with the Eagles having a combo of at least 3 on the field at times with Long, Graham, Curry, Barrnet, Cox, Allen, and Jerigan, works. Browns literally had no combo that didnt include Ogun and Garrett in it that would work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eagles guys are all legit players in the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browns need to focus on getting the starting DL built before you worry about creating this amazing depth. Eagles DL wasn’t nearly as good as it was last year. They added more well known players and still didn’t reproduce the similar results. They had Nagate and Bennett as additions too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya know, there is a really sweet thought I have had in my head for quite a while regarding our d line. Plug in Dre'Mont Jones next to Larry Ogunjobi. Now you have that penetrating pass rush from the interior x2. And Dre'Mont ain't horrible as a run stuffer too.

I wouldn't be pissed if they grabbed Jones with the 17th pick or if they did a trade down between 20-25 and grabbed him. I think he is kinda an underrated DT and would fit perfect. I also like Wilkins at 17 too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooks1957 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 If he is released, do we entertain the thought of bringing him in on a team friendly incentive laden contract? Or his track record of lack of availability the kill shot to this scenario? http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/6558/jimmy-smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedTheClock Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Our DL could be nasty with a few moves. 1. Sign Michael Pierce (Star) and Markus Golden (Fringe starter) 2. Draft Joe Jackson in the 2nd round (I can't believe he's being mocked here consistently but ok) LE: Ogbah/Jackson DT: Pierce/Ogunjobi/Zettel/Coley RE: Garrett/Golden That's a loaded up DL with 2-3 legit stars on it.
