Best Available Players for the Browns in Day 2 of the 2025 NFL draft
5. LB Carson Schwesinger, UCLA
No one was expecting a LBer with the top pick of the 2nd round and was figuring JOK's injury played a significant role but yesterday we see this...
Browns Defender Announces Retirement After Training Camp Absence
Browns Linebacker Jordan Hicks Announces His Retirement
NOW I get it. The Browns were aware they were losing two key LBers. Makes complete sense now and I did meet Carson.
Ran into the 'other' Browns 2nd round draft pick today.
Very good guy IMHO.
He's fantastic! Honestly, swear to Gosh darn. Uber impressive on every front. He's already wearing the green dot. Count on him to be a full-time starter from day-one. Every rookie has a learning curve, but I anticipate by the end of the year he will be a finalist for Defensive Rookie of the Year.
this season is going to be worse than 1-31
Again NO.
Last year we had a
stooge of an OC, a
stooge rookie OL-coach, a
stooge QB that we used an entire offseason to build around who never threw for 200 yards in his 1-7 starts.
Our best offensive player,
Chubb was on IR. Our
starting LT was coming off injury. Our
starting RT was coming off injury. Our hot-shot rookie backup s
wing OT was coming off injury and was pushing 400 lbs and was completely out of shape and looked like azzz. Our best O-Lineman got injured and the rest of
the O-line starters were out injured at various times.
Our #1 WR didn't get an extension and pouted and
played like the worst WR in the league. After two games he had 17 targets for 26 yards, 0 TDs and was leading the league in drops. And we traded him for a 3rd round draft pick after using a 5th to acquire him.
This year?
Stefanski is the OC, he's using his run-heavy scheme, we built the team for a scheme that we know works.
Better O-Line coach than the rookie horrible mistake we had last year.
Everyone on the O-Line is healthy and Dwand isn't out of shape and fat but has packed on lean muscle. I have super high hopes that he'll nail down the OLT position for a long time beginning this year.
We
aren't counting on Deshuan Watson at QB.
We have a mess but aren't walking into an unending abyss of Watson. It isn't as bad as last year and that is a HUGE leap forward IMHO. I low-key have high hopes that this will be solved before the season ends and the position will have a capable starter. I'll wait but nuff said.
We are in
better shape at RB even with Quinn's indiscretion hanging over that room's collective head.
We have
JJ as the #1WR and he came in and participated in ALL camps when he didn't have to.
Two words, Jamari Thrash. Wanna see more of that dude.
This offense isn't close to the ticking time bomb we had last year.
Expectations are low and that is good. Keep em low. Sleep on the Browns.
