Love it...only problem I see is exepcting Carter to move outside. Would rather draft McClellin and pick up a guy like Benard (insurance) in FA instead of Gilmore and Landry (even though I woudn't mind him).

Totally not down with Jake Delhomme! He is old as time and putrid! I would rather Orton, Campbell or even Sexy Rexy Grossman!
Also not interested in any midget qb's with pop-gun arms.
He is the second coming of terrible midget qb in Cleveland!
The other ideas for pickups were solid!

no thanks on Landry everyone knows he needs surgery excpet him i dont want to waste money and time on him hobbling around all season . also no thanks on kellen moore seems like a waste of a pick . I keep reading reports that he will go undrafted in fact here's a quote i read yesterday.

"Sporting News draft analyst Russ Lande believes Boise State QB Kellen Moore is in danger of going undrafted after a poor Senior Bowl.
Per Lande, Moore "will have to be amazing at the Combine and his Pro Day if he hopes to get drafted." Compared in stature to an equipment manager rather than a quarterback by FOX's Alex Marvez, Moore reportedly showed "below average arm strength" and was inaccurate on passes beyond ten yards in Mobile".

they say he has the arm of a noodle.

otherwise i really like what you have done i want Carr more than any other free agent . I see him as this year jonathan joseph good job

Yeah, I'm not really sure where the thinking of moving Carter to OLB is coming from. I know he played OLB in college, but that was a 4-3. The guy, as far as I know, has never been a pass rusher. I'm sure he blitzed occasionally, but nothing consistent.

Also, I would rather us move to Sensabaugh to SS, and sign a FS, as opposed to signing Landry. Give me someone with legitimate range. Also, with Landry's injury issues, I wouldn't be that crazy about signing him.

And not to be a total glass of cold water, but I can't remember the last time Cincy traded in the first round. I could see us trading down, but with a different team.

I like the other pickups, though, as well as the draft picks. I'm not crazy about Moore. He was a great college QB, but I really doubt he can be much at the pro level.

I respect that. Do you have a player you think we could grab at 144? Do we address QB in the draft at all?

respectdatstar · 01-28-2012

One thing I was considering, instead of getting Landry, how much more/less would it cost to get Tyvon Branch from Oakland? He could play FS and Sensy would be SS. Anybody think we could swing that?

The guy from USC? I forgot all about him. That would work.

He can really throw the ball.

I don't think Sensabaugh can play free safety. He can barely play Strong Safety.

sureletsrace · 01-28-2012

I like this. Cut out the Delhomme crap and the Sensabaugh to FS and it would be a dream scenario.

I would rather pick 113 be used on OG depth though.

I'd like to see us take BJ Coleman - Chattanooga. Saw him in the Shrine game last week. Good size, good arm. Seems to have pretty good presence and accuracy. I admit, since I went to Chatt, I'm a little biased.

casmith07 · 01-28-2012

Like it but would like to see another CB taken in the draft. Maybe Cliff Harris from Oregon instead of George Iloka?
