The Cleveland Browns (the 1st of DaKCMan AP's 2012 CB combo) need help in a lot of areas. Peyton Hillis will not return to the team and the only RBs currently on the roster are Chris Ogbonnaya and Montario Hardesty. In 2011 the Browns offense ranked 29th in yards, 30th in points, and a pathetic 28th in rush offense. Add to that possibly the best pro prospect at RB since Adrian Peterson available in Trent Richardson and this pick should be automatic, right?
Right?
This league is a QB centric league. You either have a franchise guy and are a contender year in and year out - or you don't. And if you don't, no matter what other weaknesses your team has, if you have the opportunity to acquire one - you do it. Additionally, the CP Mock Cleveland Browns GM (who is Awesome, by the way) ardently believes RB is a commodity position that can be found late in drafts or undrafted (Arian Foster, Priest Holmes, Willie Parker, Michael Turner, Terrell Davis, Fred Jackson, Jamal Anderson, Ahmad Bradshaw, etc. anyone?).
Colt McCoy will be an excellent backup to the future of the Cleveland Browns franchise.
With the 4th pick in the 2012 CP Mock, the
Cleveland Browns select Robert Lee Griffin III, QB, Baylor University.
