2013 NFL Draft Discussion

NFL Network is saying the Browns are bailing out on picks because they don't see value. It's funny, the rest of the NFL is apparently finding value and making picks. Are we to believe the Browns are on to something and the rest of the NFL are morons?

I think that's backwards.

The browns had the 2nd youngest team in the NFL last year and that was before dumping Dawson, Watson, and brown. They also lead the NFL in starts by rookies. The browns don't need marginal youth. So for them there isn't much value until they see whether some of the current youth is worth keeping.

I am not comfortable characterizing the Browns as wise, but it is incredibly obvious that this draft is very thin on talent. That has been very apparent from individual awards like the heisman to overall talent on the top teams.

Bama has remained stacked and backed up by the draft, but overall there has been a lack of quality in the last few years. Usc, Miami of old would murder everyone not named bama and would win by 14+ against the latter.

QB was the exception to the rule last year, though I would argue that Kaepernick was a very average college player.

Better for Fragel, Boren, Stoney, and Howard to not get drafted at this point...shocked that Fragel is on the board right now. Honestly thought he was a third rounder, fourth at worst.

6'8 310 and no one has drafted Fragel??? Amazing no one has taken a flyer on him yet.

Bengals just drafted him :biggrin: Glad to see him in Cincy, huge value here. With good depth and veterans here, he has time to develop into the position and not be rushed into a game. Love it.
