Why are they going through the 15 minutes? Do you think someone is going to come in with a 14 first round pick offer? ---

So Cleveland has picked and they havenā€™t even announced the Redskins pick? ---

> [@SenorBeef](#): > > Browns board in full meltdown, which is funny already. I donā€™t think most fanbases freak out about giving away 4th round and later picks but itā€™s full blown FIRE EVERYONE!!! mode. IME, most fan boards are tug of wars between irrational exuberance and insane pessimism, with the balance going back and forth based on the last game. ---

Wow, the NFL Network coverage is worthless. The NFL obviously wasnā€™t counting on so many teams not using their full time. ---

Itā€™s official, Trentā€™s a Brown. I think I like the move all told even if all we were outbidding was a 2nd from Tampa. A ā€œfranchiseā€ back might be an out dated concept but we got a back who excels in running, blocking and receiving which makes him a perfect fit for the west coast offense weā€™re pretending to be. Iā€™ll drink to Trent. Kalil to Minni. ---

This is probably the first stud RB the Browns have had since Leroy Kelly. Iā€™m excited for Richardsonā€™s potential. ---

Jaguars take Michael Crabtreeā€¦er, Justin Blackmon. ---

Cowboys give up 2nd rounder (#45) to go from 14 to 6. Thatā€™s actually a pretty cheap price. I wonder if St. Louis is dropping back to snag Floyd. ---

> [@SenorBeef](#): > > _cough_ 286 yards _cough_ > > Oh, stud RB that they actually used? Well, Pruitt and Mack were pretty studly. Or at least entertaining. He certainly was on that day. Pruitt was decent. Kevin Crack was good, but he was only one head of a two-headed attack. ---

The Panthers should wind up with Cox, Gilmore or Keuchly, so thatā€™ll work. Donā€™t screw it up, Hurney! ---
