Pre-note: I was about to say how smart the Browns were for pursuing Manny Lawson, but it turns out they're not interested. I'm just...like...WHY T F NOT?

1: Marcus Bernard was a passrushing DE in college and is still here, now back at DE. He was not abducted by aliens. No spontaneous combustion here. He got too big, then got hurt, but he's back, and honest: He still exists.

2: Scott Fujita was torched by every tight end he faced last season. He is getting old and had already lost a step. The Browns do not need depth behind Fujita. They need a starter in front of him. This is reality. Deal with it.

3: Brian Schaefering is a great guy to have around. He can play DT vs the pass and DE vs the run. He has become a very solid rotational player, who makes a lot of plays in limitted playing time. This is what we call "Quality depth".

4: Owen Marecic had no offseason last year and was NOT a first round pick, ok? Vickers sucked as a rookie too. Give him a freaking MINUTE, OK?

Now: It's just possible that Miami will be desperate enough to trade up for Tannehill. Not because they think the Browns will, but because they're afraid somebody else will jump ahead of them to massively overdraft this gifted PROJECT.

Maybe not even because they think it's smart, but because the mobs are out with ropes and torches, know little about football, and they need a PR splash quick. It could buy this brand new Head Coach one year of grace and save the GM'S job.

The STARTING price for this move would be Miami's second round pick.

In contemplating missing out on Superback Richardson, I like David Wilson as a plan B, maybe even with that aforementioned pick (#42 overall).

Richardson is a more accomplished reciever with better hands, is much more powerful, and Wilson needs much work on blocking. He's 207 now, but should top out at 215 on a 5'10" frame.

He's maybe THE fastest (4.4) back in this draft; more of a home-run threat than Richardson, but his offense in college was a spread, and he hasn't proven that he can run between the tackles up here consistantly.

With the work he'll need on blocking and stuff, he won't be ready to be a workhorse right away, but has ideal tools for the West Coast. The pass-blocking isn't as simple as it sounds, but many backs can learn it fairly quickly. They can work on improving his hands as well.

Wilson isn't a wide reciever, but IS a big-time playmaker who can go to the slot after he learns it. He darts and dashes and even breaks tackles. If the Browns don't get Richardson, Wilson would be a great consolation prize, and could really turn into a stud once his rough edges get some sanding.

At eighth overall, the Browns could get a superstud guard/tackle, possibly Richardson, concievably Claiborne--but for sure a real stud who would instantly help a LOT.
