My thought are, as it stands right now the Browns top 2 needs are.
#1 existing need, a Franchise Pass Rusher at RDE. #2 A cornerback to pair with Haden

Somebody that actually scares LT's and O-coordinators and that they have to game plan for would be transformitive to this defense IMO.

First let me start with the Hardest 6 prospects to rate. I say that becase they are on only 3 teams in duo's. Because they are in duo's they will not face double teams as much because that would leave the other side uncovered. And personally I like to see a guy face double teams and beat them.

In no certain order lets start with LSU's dynamic duo. *=Jun =**Soph

Sam Montgomery*, DE/OLB, LSU
Height: 6-4. Weight: 245.
Projected 40 Time: 4.61.

Barkevious Mingo*, DE/OLB, LSU
Height: 6-5. Weight: 240.
Projected 40 Time: 4.60.

Then there is Fla St's dynamic duo.

Bjourn Werner, DE, Florida State
Height: 6-4. Weight: 273.
Projected 40 Time: 4.74.

Brandon Jenkins, DE/OLB, Florida State
Height: 6-3. Weight: 250.
Projected 40 Time: 4.67.

And lastly is the Texas dynamic duo.

Alex Okafor, DE, Texas
Height: 6-4. Weight: 260.
Projected 40 Time: 4.73.

Jackson Jeffcoat*, DE, Texas
Height: 6-5. Weight: 250.
Projected 40 Time: 4.70.

Now everybody else.

William Gholston*, DE, Michigan State
Height: 6-7. Weight: 275.
Projected 40 Time: 4.75.

Michael Buchanan, DE/OLB, Illinois
Height: 6-6. Weight: 240.
Projected 40 Time: 4.70.

John Simon, DE, Ohio State
Height: 6-2. Weight: 260.
Projected 40 Time: 4.60.

Jarvis Jones*, DE/OLB, Georgia
Height: 6-2. Weight: 242.
Projected 40 Time: 4.50.

Corey Lemonier*, DE/OLB, Auburn
Height: 6-4. Weight: 240.
Projected 40 Time: 4.60.

Devin Taylor, DE/OLB, South Carolina
Height: 6-7. Weight: 248.
Projected 40 Time: 4.69.

Ron Powell*, DE/OLB, Florida
Height: 6-4. Weight: 248.
Projected 40 Time: 4.59.

Aaron Donald*, DE/OLB, Pittsburgh
Height: 6-0. Weight: 270.
Projected 40 Time: 4.70.

Damontre Moore*, DE/OLB, Texas A&M
Height: 6-4. Weight: 245.
Projected 40 Time: 4.70.

Stansly Maponga**, DE/OLB, TCU
Height: 6-2. Weight: 265.
Projected 40 Time: 4.75.

Margus Hunt, DE, SMU
Height: 6-8. Weight: 275.
Projected 40 Time: 4.73.

Wes Horton, DE, USC
Height: 6-5. Weight: 260.
Projected 40 Time: 4.73.


If now of the Juniors declares which I would find hard to believe there are still 7 seniors that should put up significant numbers barring injury. Am I missing possibly a top performer, yes but I am using a used crystal ball and old tea leaves, as I am projecting from last season. Lastly this is a WATCH list in who to watch out for if you like during your Saturdays this fall if you are looking for future potential Browns.

edit: I can't seem to reduce the pic size correctly. A little help please.

Right now the 2013 draft looks loaded with quaility def. ends.

Been reading the Brown's really like Buster Skrine's chances of starting next year.

I think def. end will either be a 1st or 3rd. round pick. The other could be corner, safety or o.l.b. depending on how our young players pan out at those positions.

The way Heckert drafts though you never know. He may see a hidden gem at say def. end in the 4th or 5th round.

My 6 pick draft right now would include def. end,corner and o.l.b. than safety, a tight end and o.t. later. Depends on free agency of course.

With so many good def. ends in next years draft will a player like Cliff Avril of Detroit get a big contract or will the Lions let him go and draft a def. end.

I think there are likely to be 3-4 1st rounders from this list at a minimum next spring IMO, bulldawg. There are also 7 Seniors on the list so it should be at minimum be deep in population.

Let's just hold off on a DE till this guy declares.



If I wanted a guy from this list, it's either John Simon or Jackson Jeffcoat.

I think Tyrann Mathieu is going to have more of an impact than any defensive player in the draft this year. I also firmly believe he is going to fall because I don't believe he is even as tall as listed, maybe even sub 5'8. The guy, however, can ball out and will have a Troy P like impact on whatever defense he lands. I'm going to hold out hope we can steal him this draft. I don't even care what the rest of the draft looks like next year as long as T-Rich, Gordon, Little, Weeden and JMJ pan out and we land Mathieu.

I do really like the LSU duo and Jackson Jeffcoat if we do the RE thing. Can't go wrong with a force pass rushing DE either.

See everyone opening Sunday maybe even squeeze in some time on the board during one of the preseason games. Later.

Werner or Gholston are my preferences. I like Gholston a lot for us at the #32 pick.

Mingo is the guy for me next year. Hes by far the best pass rusher I've seen on tape this year his burst off the line is 2nd to none, but I just dont know if he can gain the strength needed to keep up for that motor if he can prove that then hes the guy to me.
