itvnetop 04-30-2007, 05:38 PM eric wright is a steal in the third round. he was SC's lockdown corner a few years ago. if he doesn't do anything boneheaded (ie, get caught selling 136 tabs of ecstasy on campus- that's what led to his transfer to UNLV), he'll be their top corner in a few seasons.
Dirtbag59 04-30-2007, 05:38 PM If they sign Darius Walker they'll have a better chance of making it through this year. Recently I heard that the Cowboys have already set their sights on Darren McFadden, the RB from Arkansas who has been deemed as an LT type back. I know Walker isn't the solution at RB but I feel he can be to Browns as Leon Washington was to the Jets last year.

I think the Bears signed Walker
jsarno 04-30-2007, 06:12 PM I think you can add in KC and Denver too. They have great NFL fans in those cities.
There are plenty of cities that love their teams, but very few that live and breathe their teams (ie: Washington, Green Bay, and Cleveland). Denver loves their broncos, no doubt about it, but they also have a very strong love for their Avalanche. K.C. has some great fans, but not those top 3 I already mentioned IMO.

McFadden could be the #1 pick at some point. I'm sure there will be plenty of teams looking at him.

The biggest phonies are Eagles, Cowboys, Giants, and Ravens fans. Those guys only conveniently decide to start liking football when their team is doing well.

I hate the eagels.
NM Redskin 04-30-2007, 09:23 PM Not in 2007. They look good on paper, but so do most teams.
GiantsSuck703 04-30-2007, 10:36 PM I'm happy for Cleveland and their fans...I think they had a good draft and they are on their way to turning that franchise around.
Getting Joe Thomas and Brady Quinn is something they only thought about in their wettest of dreams. But they also got a good DB in Eric Wright (UNLV), and I've heard good things about DE Melila Purcell (Hawaii).
Add to the draft, they signed RB Jamal Lewis, and OL Eric Steinbach and they are looking good. They most certainly upgraded at a lot of positions, and should easily see close to a .500 season this year.
To me there are only 3 teams with die hard fans, by die hard, I mean their persona is wrapped up in their fans. That's of course, Washington, Green Bay, and Cleveland. It's good to see Cleveland making a game of it again.
I would like to share your view but i just cant, when you are a bad team year after year its not a good idea to give up next years first round pick to take a QB, even if its Brady Quinn. They definately picked up some good players but I just dont see them doing anything this year, there defense is pretty suspect. They didnt give Charlie Frye enough of a chance, and they refused to play Lee Suggs when he was actually healthy, what a waste. LaCharles Bently is DONE, his knee has fallen apart and will most likely retire, thats pretty sad because he was one hell of a player. Brady Quinn was a good QB, but never really had the ability to take over a game and really rode the hype train all the way through college, much the same way as Joey Harrington so beware. Jamal Lewis has been horrible since he went to prison, and that was running behind Jonathan Ogden. There team is just to inconsistent and just not talented enough to do anything this year or even next year for that matter, I still cant believe they passed on Adrian Peterson, Joe Thomas is good but so was Robert Gallary.
