Yes, but they didn't necessarily mean in the draft.

I guess once Greene and Coffee went off the board they panicked. I don't get exactly when they're doing, but I guess they know best.

Maybe they got a higher opinion of Moats than we do? Puzzling to say the least...

sounds like a fast CB, like 4.33 40. 3 year starter. not a RB or Safety type. hmm.

4.34 speed at his Pro Day, 3-year all-Mountain West Conference cornerback. Brice McCain, meet the practice squad.

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/559552

Overview
Three-year starter played in 49 games, starting 39 … won all-MWC recognition as a defensive back (2007-08) and kick returner (2006) … 103 career tackles … 21 career pass breakups is tied for sixth all-time at Utah … 37 kick returns ranks ninth at Utah while 846 kick return yards is 11th … fastest player on the team was clocked in a 4.28-second 40.

2008 Season
First team all-MWC pick started all 13 games at cornerback … 35 tackles, five pass breakups and an interception … season-high six tackles with a pass breakup vs. BYU … four tackles against Michigan and Oregon State … a sack and a pass breakup vs. New Mexico … one kick return for 23 yards against Michigan.



I suppose we have some Mountain West Conference DB scouts. Could we be looking for another KR to make Jacoby Jones expendable? 4.33 is nothing to sneeze at.

Man, talk about having the rug pulled out from under you numerous times... I feel like I've waisted the last 3hrs of my time.

I think Coye Francies, a CB who stood out at the Senior Bowl and went three picks later to the Browns, will be a better player, but I can see a team not taking a risk on someone who was arrested on firearms charges.

Why would you say they panicked? If the whole draft was predicated on those two not being there and they were gone... well, that is just silly.

Ok, I am now guessing MLB for next pick, just because I have no clue
Darry Beckwith - ILB LSU - HT: 6-0.5 WT: 232
Dannell Ellerbe - ILB Georgia - HT: 6-1 WT: 236
Appleby, Antonio ILB 6'4" 243 Virginia
Joseph, Frantz LB 6'1" 242 Florida Atlantic

The Browns just got a guy, who I thought if he had came out last year would have been a 1st rounder, here in the 6th round. I wonder if James Davis would have been better off coming out last year. On the other hand, he may have been another one of those guys that draftniks love, only to meet cold reality on draft day. If Davis learns to block, he should help the offense, because he can run the ball.

Maybe they just have a really low opinion of Rashad Jennings. Maybe he's a slacker.

Cowboys got Hamlin and Stephen Hodge? Somebody's going to get hurt in Special Teams.

Well Ra'Shon is going to be a 3-4 DE for the Steelers and they didn't have to spend their #3 overall for him.

With all the CB's and TE's now on roster, how about OD and DRob to Carolina for James Stewart and a '10 pick? Just kidding...

The Patriots take Pryor and ensure that I'm not drafting a DT in the 7th round.

Well, the TE I would have drafted is now gone. Perhaps the Texans were right in drafting Hill. The Cowboys take Phillips to go with Witten.

Would we draft John Parker Wilson, while we have Alex Brink and Dan Orlovsky?
