Cleveland Browns (Finally drafting Buckeyes)

We got the big money players. Time to moneyball to fill some of the other gaps. The only other position I would be ok with dropping some coin on would be a run stuffing MLB, but that might be better filled in the draft. I feel pretty much all the remaining holes can be filled in the draft or smart FA signings. Still can save some money on Vernon's contract if they can find a lower cost replacement. Richardson could slide out to run down DE if they could find a run stuffing DT and a pass rush specialist at DE.

we really need safeties bad… almost everyone from last year's team is gone and there are quite a few safeties in FA…if you do not want to trade for Harris Von Bell (remember him) is a FA available
agree about getting a good run stuffing MLB but not many of them available in FA Shobert is still out there but while he is pretty good in pass coverage and getting guys lined up he sucks when it comes to tackling… I would prefer bringing in someone to fill that position. Agree about Vernon and Richardson but don't be surprised if one of those guys gets released.

Without doing any research I'm guessing Richardson would have a lot more dead money than Vernon so I think Vernon will be gone. I wonder what kind of contract Bell is looking for? He might fit in my good value signing category. I also see Antoine Winfield Jr. popping up in some of the mock drafts. No doubt there are holes to fill at DB. The Buckeye homer in me would love to fill out the 3rd-7th round of the draft with the best Buckeye available (in no particular order): Arnette, Fuller, Victor, Hamilton, and Harrison
