BleedTheClock Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Free Agency: CB Trumaine Johnson --Give him a fat chunk of change. He’s a little overrated, but we need starting caliber corners and he certainly fits the bill. He’s a perfect fit for our scheme in addition to being a good player at the cornerback position. WR Terrelle Pryor --Was atrocious for Washington last season. He missed us as much as we missed him. It makes sense to naturally reunite Pryor and the Browns. He will be the #2 WR if he beats out Coleman or the #4 if Corey can actually show up this year. DT Daquon Jones --A powerful squatty NT that can generate some pressure as well. We lose Shelton, so finding a bigger body to place next to our smaller 3T’s is necessary. Daquon Jones is a starting caliber player that shouldn’t break the bank. DE Dee Ford --Ford has a lot of untapped potential still. He’s an elite athlete for the DE position and consistently has a speed advantage against all OT’s. He’s underwhelming as an edge setter and isn’t a diverse pass rusher. Relatively young and cheap signing for our 3rd string pass rusher. MLB Christian Jones --Versatile linebacker that can play all three LB positions. He’s fast enough to cover, big enough to thump, and instinctive enough to be in the right position to make tackles. Should be cheap and could sub out Schobert on passing downs. CB DJ Hayden --Simple depth addition. Hayden has been very up and down in his NFL career after being a high 1st round draft pick not too long ago. We’d be bringing him in to act as the 4th-5th-6th cornerback, so there isn’t much of a downside. He has every tool to pan out, but it hasn’t happened yet. 2018 NFL Draft #1—Sam Darnold/QB/USC --Great QB prospect. He has the size, athleticism, arm talent, and leadership to become a franchise QB. He’s as good as any QB prospect that’s come out since Andrew Luck. He needs to shore up his fumbling fetish and learn how to get rid of the football faster, but those are his only real flaws. #4—Saquon Barkley/RB/Penn State --The best player in the draft. He’s electric in the open field and has the size to shed tacklers if they’re lucky enough to get their hands on him. He’s also an elite receiver out of the backfield and has A+++ character. Best runningback since Adrian Peterson. (TRADE) *Browns trade #33, #35, 5th, 2019 3rd to the Redskins for #13* #13—Derwin James/FS/Florida State --An excellent DB capable of playing all over the place. A true leader and firey competitor in addition to being a freaky athlete. Has the agility and lateral mobility to cover from sideline-sideline in the deep middle. Insane closing burst and excellent hit power. He’s my #4 rated player in the draft. 2nd—Brian O’Neill/OT/Pittsburgh --Flawed prospect with an immense ceiling. He’s a former TE that can really move. Does not struggle to mirror speed rushers, but has a tendency to lunge in both pass pro and run blocking. He needs to clean this up, but a season—maybe two—behind Joe Thomas should help. He’s the future LT. 4th—Skai Moore/WLB/South Carolina --Excellent cover linebacker that was also very productive in the run game. He isn’t nearly as good as Roquan Smith, but he is a similar kind of player. Scrape linebacker that doesn’t miss tackles and can run with anyone in the pass game. Another guy that could replace Schobert on passing downs. 5th—Antonio Callaway/WR/Florida --Talented receiver, talented criminal. The guy isn’t going to win any boy scout awards, but he’s a pretty darn good wide receiver. He has top level explosion, solid hands, and understands how to get open against man coverage. Worth a flier here, but has immense bust potential. 6th—Dimitri Flowers/FB/Oklahoma --Plays almost like a TE/RB more than a FB. He’s a true H-Back, something we need in this offense. He is a capable blocker, but most of his production will come off of play action flat and seam routes. Good RAC ability and tough as nails. The top FB in the draft. 7th—Matthew Thomas/MLB/Florida State --Great athlete, mediocre football player. Never really put it together at FSU. Did, however, make several splash plays and showed flashes of becoming a special player. He’s big and fast and can cover well. Needs to play with more conviction based on his initial reads. Slow to react. 2018 Cleveland Browns Roster: QB: Tyrod Taylor/Sam Darnold/Cody Kessler RB: Saquon Barkley/Duke Johnson/Matt Dayes FB: Dimitri Flowers WR: Josh Gordon/Corey Coleman/Jarvis Landry/Terrelle Pryor/Antonio Callaway/Sammie Coates TE: David Njoku/Seth DeValve/Randall Telfer LT: Joe Thomas/Brian O’Neill LG: Joel Bitonio/Marcus Martin C: JC Tretter/Austin Reiter RG: Kevin Zeitler/Spencer Drango RT: Shon Coleman/Roderick Johnson LE: Emmanuel Ogbah/Carl Nassib DT: Larry Ogunjobi/Daquon Jones/Trevon Coley/Caleb Brantley RE: Myles Garrett/Dee Ford WLB: Christian Kirksey/Skai Moore MLB: Joe Schobert/Christian Jones/Matthew Thomas SLB: Jamie Collins/James Burgess CB: Trumaine Johnson/Damarious Randall/Briean Boddy-Calhoun/Jamar Taylor/DJ Hayden/Howard Wilson FS: Derwin James/Jason McCourty SS: Jabrill Peppers/Derrick Kindred K: Zane Gonzales P: Britton Colquitt KR: Saquon Barkley/Jabrill Peppers PR: Saquon Barkley/Jabrill Peppers 2019 Team Needs: OT “Pending O’Neill’s progression, we would need a LT. And we could upgrade at RT too probably.” CB “We could at least upgrade in the slot.” C “Not a huge need, but I don’t see a lot of holes on this roster believe it or not.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for leaving him at cornerback and drafting Derwin James to play the position. I think we'd be moving him to FS because of our lack of a FS more than anything else. If we can get a better FS, he can stay at corner. This defense lacks a true take-no-prisoners leader. I'd love for that guy to be FS Derwin James.

Aztec Hammer Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I’m on the fence about Derwin James and giving up two 2nds and a 3rd for him, but I’ve got to be honest, I wouldn’t care at all if we did that because everything else is a home run.
