buno67 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Feel like with all these one year deals for defensive players. There plan has to be drafting defense heavy. Seems like LT at #10 or at least hope so and defense the rest of the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there’s limited money to sign longer term “cornerstone” players defensively and they’re just trying to fill some holes. I could see a tackle at 10 and maybe a WR later. The rest would look to be defense imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave us with 2,2,3,3,4 to spend on defense. Looking at Safety, Edge, DT, LB, CB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawgX Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Solid signing. Him and Joseph aren't bad pieces to have for a year if we can't find a better safety. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like LT at #10 or at least hope so and defense the rest of the draft. All the one-year deals telegraph that Berry and the FO have a strategy of buying time until longer more sustainable high quality football people can be added to the roster. I do think you're right that it makes sense to go defense heavy in the draft. The only problem with that is that the draft is weak in impact players on the defensive side of the ball at the key positions we're looking to fill (DE, DT, FS, SS). There are really high quality players rounds 1 and 2 though and I honestly think Andrew Berry is going to shock people by targeting Derrick Brown, Jeffrey Okudah, or even Isaiah Simmons to a lesser extent over a Tackle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as the pundits and fans are having a conversation about "the big 4" tackles, there are likely many GM's with just one or two as elite (or, conversely, have six stuffed in a generic "tier-1"). Something tells me they have two or so tackles of the four that they love and thus, depending on the draft, would happily take any of those defenders you listed. So far our front office has been doing things that look very smart. Targeting best player available, with the tiebreaker being tackle, makes a lot of logical sense and I could see them very realistically doing exactly that as their strategy.

Kiwibrown Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Next year wont be a big year for free agents for the browns, if these guys boom even a little then they earn themselves a bigger contract, then 2022 will be a good year for compensatory picks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
