6'3 with 4.3 speed? Nice. I wouldn't mind the Bengals getting this guy undrafted. But we've really been that road so much. So many failed experiments.
Never know though.

God I hope the Browns are dumb enough to take Tannehill or Blackmon with the #4 pick. Richardson is such a logical choice for them with their defense and offensive line being the strengths of their team, but I'm praying they don't realize that.

Hate to break it to you, but were likely to pick up Richardson or Claiborne at this point. Definitely not Tannehill - and less likely Blackmon.
I like Claiborne right now. Him + Haden = possibly, the best cornerback combo in the league.

It's going to be so good seeing Floyd, Hill, or Wright across from A.J.

Tannehill being talked about as a potential top 10 pick shows the premium placed on QBs by NFL teams. He's a good pick late in the 1st, where he wouldn't be expected to start for at least a couple of years, but top 10 is just too high.
It's going to suck for him when he gets drafted by the Dolphins and has to spend a few more years throwing 30 comeback routes a game in Sherman's offense.

Pleaaaase take Claiborne and make our decision easier. You guys could come out of the draft with Claiborne, Alshon and Lamar Miller/Doug Martin/David Wilson. If the Browns are smart I think that's what they'll do.

You dont want Claiborne? Ronde is old and sucks, Eric Wright isnt that good, and isnt there a chance that Talib goes to jail or something.
Im thinking that with so much empasis on the passing game now, we may be able to get a decent RB in the 3rd round or so.

these are the rules from last year, everyone good with this:

h3at23... you can have the two closer to the draft.Those are more accurate and more important anyway
Rules
-Rounds: 4
-Commissioners/GMs get 4 hours to make their pick when they're on the clock from 1PMet-11PMet. Before/after those hours there is unlimited time.
-Tomorrow, Sunday, no one will have a clock. Since it's Championship Sunday... we're not going to require people to make their picks that day. If they can, that'd be cool, but they definitely don't need to.
-There will be two strikes for people that miss their picks. The first strike (first miss) is just a warning. If two strikes are achieved, the person will forfeit their GM duties and we will find a replacement.
-For anybody that misses their pick, I will use WaterFootball.com's latest mock draft and make a pick according to who's left on the board and the team's draft needs

Hellll no. Blount is NOT a starting RB in this league, he's a great compliment. He's a beast when he gets in the open field but he has absolutely no clue what to do in pass blocking situations and every time he's on the field it's so obvious that we're running the ball. Makes our offense so stagnant. Plus some of the reports of his behavior last year isn't going to keep him in the league too long if he keeps it up. Heard he was late to most meetings, fell asleep in a few and would keep his headphones on when the coaches were talking. If we were able to get Trent Richardson, our offense would be 1000000x better immediately. And him and Blount would make a hell of a duo. I wouldn't be too dissapointed if we end up picking Claiborne because I actually think he's going to be really good, but I just don't think he'll have the impact on our defense the way Richardson would for our offense. Blount is literally the only RB even currently on our roster at the moment. The only decent RB's that will still be around in the 3rd when we pick are Chris Polk and LaMichael James, and I'm not a huge fan of either one ever being a starter. Even if we just wait til the 2nd, there's no telling who's going to be there when we pick with RB needy teams like the Jets, Bengals, Browns twice, Steelers, Packers, Giants and Colts in front of us. Richardson, Doug Martin, Lamar Miller and David Wilson could all be gone......then we'd really be +#!@%%.

Lamar Miller DEFINITELY has a chance to be great. This is just a great draft for RB's period.
Richardson is the closest thing to AP since AP. Miller = LeSean McCoy. Doug Martin = Ahmad Bradshaw. David Wilson has off the charts potential if he can fix the fumbling problem, and LMJ can be a Sproles-type back for a team. Robert Turbin, Isaiah Pead and Chris Polk are some sleepers too.

i just don't see that.. to me, a more approriate comparrison would be frank gore (both short stocky types.. both guys are 5'9)
i see an extremely solid player.. but not sure a see a game breaker type dude.. he's that solid 4-5 yards per carry guy that you'll love when your trying milk clock with a lead, but not sure i see him as a dynamic back like AP

Hasn't Trent Richardson had knee surgery twice already?
Lamar Miller gets on the right team and he's going to unleash.
Put him on a crap team, same as any other player, they slowly drown.
It broke my heart to do so, but I projected Miller to the Jets in round 2. Compliments Greene, takes LT's spot, in a year or two Miller could be the main guy. I hope like hell it don't happen, poor Miller.
I rather the Jets take LaMichael to complete the failure trifecta in the Jets backfield. Sanchez/Tebow/LM James #Weallsuck
