I thought Browns coach Romeo Crennel's had some very interesting comments (from the owners meeting in Fla.) about this past seasons series with the Steelers, a series btw that has seen our Steelers win 9 in a row (6 consecutive losses under Crennel) and an amazing 15 of the last 16 meetings (sorry bereadawg...just the facts man)...
"The second game against Pittsburgh the last two years, we've been ahead in those games with a good chance to win. We just didn't get it done. Their quarterback made plays for them and he won the game for them basically. So, hopefully we can neutralize him a little bit with some of the guys we added to the team and be able to get over the hump."
Of course, "some of the guys...", is a direct reference to the two DT's they signed as free agents.
This is why I believe we must come away with not one but TWO good, young, talented offensive lineman in this draft...we need more talent, more youth, more beef, and more depth. We need to have good young O-lineman ready to step in when injuries hit, when players leave via FA, to push veterans for playing time, and most importantly have very little drop, if any, of the quality of play along O-line when this stuff happens.
Any thoughts guys...do you still think we have the luxury of taking a WR or RB if someone we like is available, or waiting until the 2nd or even 3rd round to take an O-lineman. Again, I think we need two O-lineman ( round 1 and round 3 or 4 maybe)...
