These two players have been released by the Browns. Whitner has a history with Fangio and is just turning 31 this summer. If we cut Rolle there is no dead money on the cap. He is 3 years younger and was successful under Fangio. I would go for that change in our DB field. Also Ekpre-Olomu is released coming off a major injury. He has youth and upside on the side of signing him. I am all in on that signing also.

I am not devaluing the OLine, I think it is important, but somewhere we will draft a QB prospect and I think it will be this year. I would be all in on a first or second round LT such as Stanley, Decker, Spriggs, or or Conklin, also like Ifedi. After those choices you are just drafting a prospect not one that will start this year. I also think if we get valve we may draft a mid round OG for depth even thou we have some stop gap players there for the moment.

Hargreaves is a stud, I have thought he would be a bad pick because Fangio valves height and are length,but he could very well be the BPA at our pick, and after reading and watching film on him would not have a problem with him. Henry is not a special player but will be a starter in the NFL and end up being better than anyone on our team right now. Scooby is listed as both I and O LBers positions depending on where you look. He will end up being a good NFL player, a highly intelligent and football instincts. He will be a good player that could transcend into one of our OLBers, but then according to you we dont need any. Look at his stats from two years ago before the injury and you may think more highly of him. Bronson is taken low enough that if he is a miss will not be devastating but has some good tape on him.

I would be all in on Stanley in the first, but at some point there are going to draft a QB that they think can become a starter. If Cutler goes down, season would be down the tubes. If Leno goes down, we have a body to stick in right now.

I would be right there with you on those choices. The first 3 are quite realistic but I think Smith is long gone by the 4th round. I think he goes in the second round.

Cleveland also released Donte Whitner/S who use to play for Fangio and is only 30.

That would be an awesome draft but agree with SCS, we draft a QB prospect, maybe instead of Johnstone

Cleveland released Ifo Ekpre-Olumu/CB who has been injured but is suppose to be fully recovered. He may be a good depth sign.

That makes a lot of sense, trading one of them.

I seen an article stating Philly is going to a 4-3 and Connor Barwin might be on the trading block because of the scheme change. He's 29 and has had 21.5 sacks the last 2 years? I would say giving one of our 4th rounders may do it. Any takers?

If his medical news is good, go for it.

Somebody will draft him with a late 4 or 5th, probably to rich for our blood. Someone like a NE or a Denver, Arz, Car, a late round picker that can take risks.

Here is a link from Windy City Gridiron, a lot of interesting trades to land more picks. I like it, dont like the QB pick, should have went for one of the good prospects in the spot they picked Martin.(before OL signings.) http://www.windycitygridiron.com/2016/3/31...ition-3-31-2016

He's not special but probably an upgrade over what we had.

Everything is speculation and everything you read on twitter doesnt always have legs. Justin Houston is out for the year, do you think maybe something in the works for Lamar Houston or Willie Young? There is no way we are getting rid of Slauson, he is the leader of the Oline right now. Larsen is just a depth guy, but I could see maybe Slauson playing center and one of the new additions play Slausons spot.

How about Clady ? What would you think that is worth?

Just seen a tweet that adam Caplan stated that bears will be signing ted Larson/G-C formerly with Arizona

There are 8 players that most people consider the first tier-plums Tunsil Bosa Buckner Stanley Ramsey Elliott Jack Wentz In the next 6, climb into the top ten or close to it Goff Hargraves Lawson Spence Tredwell Robinson If any of the first group drop, I say we are all on top of it. In the next group, I suspect Robinson or Hargraves would be the choices. If they think one of the edge rushers are good, it may be Lawson or Spence, outside shot-Floyd. I have also seen Conklin flirting with the top 12, that may be a choice.

Manny is definitely a better player and has played all three inside spots. As a backup, age will not matter as much, is a stop gap to bringing a player to develop.

Manny Ramirez to vist Bears.

On all the visits and meetings last year, White was the only name on the list we drafted.

I agree, there really isnt any that appear to be of a 11 valve, but they do much more research on them than we do, so they may have a different view. As much as Young, Houston, McPhee can be good, none of them are stud edge rushers, someone than can get you 12 - 15 sacks a year. Because there are not that many plums at that position, they may valve one of them at 11.

Scott Chandler is a decent choice, good blocker with some catch ability

If yhey thonk one of those guys are vonn miller, do they worry about to many bodies

It they think a playmaker is that at 11(in their opinion) OLB could be our first pick. Spence , Lawson,Floyd, Ogbah. I am not sure if those are any difference makers but they probably know.
