MWil23 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Easily my least favorite Browns pick EVER. I hated it at the time and I hate it even more now. A sub .500 team drafting a backup center in the 1st round with countless other holes to fill. It made no sense even if it panned out and was a terrible value pick then. I can't believe there were people that thought he'd be a legit NFL tackle either. Watching him try to play OT against Vic Beasely was embarrassing in college, let alone as an NFL prospect. I'd trade him for a bag of magic beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be more painful if the guys picked after him were lighting the league on fire (they're not), but there's still no excuse for missing that badly on an O-lineman.

I didn't know anything about him coming out but it was pretty clear after year one he wasn't good enough to play anywhere on any line. Balance is bad, strength seems bad, football intelligence seems bad. Bad combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That I understand, but I'm saying I completely disagree with the entire philosophy behind that kind of a pick in the first round. I know Mach was probably leaving no matter what, but still. You cross that bridge when you get to it/you do that with a 3rd rounder or later the season before it happens, NEVER a 1st if you're a sub .500 team. If you're New England, maybe you think about it, but anyone else, no way. That's all I was really saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaWg_LB. Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 In all fairness....we knew we were loosing Mack, and had other holes on the Oline..... At the time he was a starting LT for a National Championship team, and then he became a starter at C the next year and had a good year in the ACC...so at the time they thought he was Eric Steinbach a Olineman with size production and 5 position versatility.......It didnt work out....now that's 3 misses on 4 First Round Picks in 2 season....think about those two first rounds....produced Danny Shelton.....and Justin Gilbert, Cam Erving and John Manzel......
