Cleveland Browns baby!

With who/what is available, I hope to god we run away from Geno Smith . Let Jacksonville take him, because I swear to god if we take Geno to replace Weeden... I will probably, finally, break down and cry while hugging my case of beer. I can't take anymore mediocre QB "competitions".

With that being said and with the absence of Sheldon Brown this year, I hope we take a top CB to compliment Joe Haden on the other side of the field.

Right now, I am hoping for Milliner out of Alabama or Xavier Rhodes out of FL State. Maybe Trufant out of Washington with a later pick in the draft if he's available and the price is right for our #6 overall.

I am obviously a Pats fan being from Boston.  I usually don't get too excited about the draft.  Except, I love to see that every year, a monkey throwing darts would be more accurate picking than Mel Kiper jr.  Pats always pick so late, it is just a guess who they think is good.

From what I've read, they seem most likely to go for WRs and DBs, the two positions they've been bad at drafting.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

Denver - after the baltimore game I want new safety's and corners....A 70 yard touchdown with under a minute to play is inexcusable.

Browns fan. The pick is Dee Milliner. If he's gone by the time the Browns pick, they'll trade down with a team that needs one of the LTs out there (like Miami).

Keep in mind though, we may not go that far back... or even trade at all if they feel that Rhodes will be taken. I definitely think we're addressing CB like I said in my earlier post, but if they stray from CB and take QB or something completely insane... I for sure will flip out.

Mike Lombardi as GM scares the crap out of me.

They'd just screw it up anyway.

Probably true...

I'm hoping either Milliner or Fischer are still there at 5.

Huge Pats fan. It's really just guessing with how late in the draft they pick. They need corner help, a position they've been notoriously bad at judging skill at..

In the Bag 2013:

Driver:  FT-9 Draw i-Mix 10.5*

3 Wood:  R11s 15.5*

3 Hybrid:  Idea Tech V3 19*

Irons (4-PW):  ZB Forged

Wedges:  Tom Watson PVD; 52.07*, 56.13*, 60.07*

Putter:  White Ice #1 33"

I just read the browns are trying to trade up and I'm not sure any of the tackles would be there for them to trade down. This is a tough draft to trade down because the tackles are the biggest chip and they may all be gone in the top 5. They might be able to make a deal with the Jets if the Jets want Millner bad enough and the Browns could take Rhodes.

Driver: i15, 3 wood: G10, Hybrid: Nickent 4dx, Irons: Ping s57, Wedges: Mizuno MPT 52, 56, 60, Putter: XG #9

Hate the Lions pick. Not sure how you take somebody at #5 with no college production to speak of.

Where do you guys think Geno Smith will fall to after the Bills took EJ Manuel? I can't see him being drafted in the first round now that the Bills passed on him.

    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
    • Day 552, May 7, 2024 Played nine holes with @NatalieB with irons only from her tees. Didn't really finish out any holes, just hit the irons and approaches and some chips.
    • What has gone downhill? Have you been practicing properly, filming your swing, working on exactly what he suggested without straying? My thoughts are that your results/outcomes from a lesson a year ago probably aren't all that relevant anymore.  And carry distance is far more important than total distance. Total distance is going to vary significantly based on course conditions.
    • One thing that has helped me tremendously is to spray the club face with foot powder when I am on the range. Seeing ball impact can be quite helpful if you are hitting shots all over the place. It's not the cure all, but a good little thing to do on the range. The other thing, and I will forget to do it, is the pre-shot routine. Find me a spot a foot or so from the ball in-line with my target, take my stance, take the swing.  Sometimes you take a BS practice swing with no thought. Make it deliberate.  As far as swing thoughts. I have 3 check-points. First is set-up, Second is my take away, Third is my downswing. I cant explain what I think I just know in my mind. Its a feeling that I have that feels right and experience has shown that if I follow those 3 thoughts more than likely the outcome will be what I was looking for. Now, thinking about the feeling and executing it properly is a whole different thing, that;s why I practice, I used to be over a 20 handicap, I am down to a 15.1 in about a year.  I feel like its good progress. the goal is a 10 by the end of the year. If I make it great, if not, hey at least Im not in Gaza. LOL
