They drafted a OT which is the only position on the OL we have long terms starters at with Conklin/Wills/Hubbard/Forbes A little strange to not get some mid/late round OG/C to work 'season' himself for a year or two until Bitonio/Tretter/Teller leave. Don’t forget we have Forbes and Harris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lacks arm length to be a OT, but he’s athletic and nasty. Nick Harris will replace Tretter. They probably wanted to give him one more season to learn and get physically ready. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this would be the ideal outcome. I liked the Nick Harris pick and am rooting for him to make it. Hudson seems destined for IOL, agreed. He could also possibly be insurance for Conklin's walking in free agency after next (2022) season: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/jack-conklin-18956/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwibrown Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I think they let teller walk, hopefully after a monster season, and he gets huge money on the free agency market securing us a third or a 4th. I think our line could be Wills, Hudson, harris, forbes, and then a new rt in a few years. Of our existing 4 starters the one I want here the most in 3 years is conklin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will try to keep him and Wills. Baker needs good OT’s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the best attribute Wills, Hudson, and Harris all have is foot speed. I really like Wyatt, but I could see the front office wanting a RG with more nimble feet. We need to keep Conklin though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were they the reason he was getting hurt? Wyatt played like the best RG in the league when he was healthy last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are not happy with our current OL depth you will literally never be happy with our OL depth. Ever. Forever. This is by far the best and deepest line in the whole league. We are going to be cutting OL AT EVERY POSITION who would start for 2-3 teams in the league and be key swing guys on 15-20. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's especially crazy when you consider how bad our OL was just like two years ago. We had Bitonio and Tretter and the rest were bad starters with practically zero depth. Just goes to show how smart personnel moves plus great coaching can make such a dramatic difference in a short amount of time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year’s defense was one of the worst I’ve ever seen. Hopefully we’ve solved that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NateDawg Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Yeah these guys know what they are doing and they aren’t going to, of all positions, not re-sign the quarterback or keep control. It will be fine as long as nothing sours the relationship or anything. I still wouldn’t shovel money at Denzel ward. He is a great player but I would be content letting him play on the tag if that’s how that one goes down until he shows he can be healthy for a season.
