Browns blow

Best quote from their GM

quote:

"The SEC is a whole different animal," says Lombardi. "If all we did was take guys from Alabama and LSU, we'd be fricking great."

That said, drafting an edge rusher from LSU doesn't exactly qualify as divergent thinking. That's not outside the box. That's inside the box.

Isn't Mike Lombardi the one with a connection to Coach Saban?

Would need to go elsewhere for QB to be great. I do think AJ can be a good pro QB but I wouldn't bet on him being "fricking great"

But every other position:

RB check
WR check
Online check
Dline check
LB check
CB check
S check
ST check
