Sad thing is most of these guys won't be ready Day 1. Y'all gonna need Air Gordon back if he can stay clean.

Browns fans trying to tie Kessler skill set to Dalton when its actually a dead ringer for Tony Romo



Same height + build

Eerily similar throwing motion

Manipulates the pocket the same way

And here is Romo's draft profile:

Tony Romo #17 - 6'2" 220 lbs. - Eastern Illinois - Sp. 4.9 Rating 78

Smooth strong small college passer completed an excellent senior season at the Division 1 AA level that earned him the Walter Payton Award, symbolic of the level's best player. Tony completed a record setting career that included three consecutive Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year awards in addition to numerous first team All-American teams. He is a fine athlete with a live arm and the ability to make all the throws. He has shown excellent accuracy, touch and timing as a passer with the ability to hit receivers in stride on a consistent basis. He has operated mainly from the shotgun and has decent setup technique when starting from under center.

He has a very quick release with a smooth compact delivery that wastes little motion that allows him to get the ball off nicely when under pressure.

He has a good arm with the ability to throw the short and intermediate passes exceptionally well. He needs some work on the deep ball with improved arm strength and better foot positioning necessary to increase his completion %. He has a good feel for pressure in the pocket with the mobility to avoid tacklers and make a good throw on the move. He makes things happen outside the pocket with the ability to hit receivers on the money. Over his career, he made nice strides in all areas of play, especially decision making. He goes through his progressions well with the quick decision making to deliver the ball to the right receiver at the right time. He has the complete makeup of an NFL starting QB - athletic, sound arm with the ability to make quick smart decisions consistently.

The Numbers: Over his career, he threw for 8212 yards passing with 85 TD passes on 584 completions of 941 attempts. He had a huge senior year, which earned him the Walter Payton award. He threw for 3165 yards on 258 completions of 407 passes for 34 TDs, which earned him high season honors. As a junior, he threw for 2068 yards on 67% completion rate for 21 TDs and 6 picks. He helped his cause with a good week at the Paradise Bowl, displaying an accurate live arm and nice mobility in the pocket. His strong final season earned rave reviews from NFL scouts about his passing talents and intangibles as a leader.

The Skinny: This guy may be the gem of this deep QB class. He is an ideal fit for the West Coast offense that emphasizes accuracy, mobility and quick decision-making. He has the triangle numbers NFL scouts seek in a pro prospect and he has the makeup to become a starter with further development and continued improvement. He has the talent to surprise over time and may be the best small college passer since Kurt Warner.

He needs further coaching and playing experience especially working under center and making adjustments while setting up in the pocket. At the combine, he ran a 5.0 forty, had a 30" vertical jump and an 8'9" broad jump.

He is a talented prospect with the tools to start, but most likely a 2nd day selection in this deep QB class. He is a quality 3rd string NFL passer with excellent upside potential. This guy should emerge as an NFL starter in time with proper coaching and some patience. Excellent middle round prospect with the ability to shine in a West Coast offense.

Draft Projection: 5th-6th Round

I still can't believe how hard you fell for the Wentz to Browns fluff.

That shyt was phony from the jump. :upsetfavre:
You know past Browns regimes would have fell for the finesse :comeon:

Sashi showed me something during this draft. Cat is cold blooded. I think Hue wanted Goff even in a trade up but Sashi was like "Nah nikka, you go get this trade down from #2 and only then will I allow you to waste a 3rd rounder on another Cailfornia boy.... but only after another trade down. Feel me, Hue??:usure::usure:"

Being 100% honest. I started to shed my disdain for the way they operated when they started to build the front office and coaching staff.

Under no circumstances did I actually think that group of men would fall for a Carson Wentz type. Rather it be the film/experience or the analytics. They'd be able to see through it and make the right decisions.

I'm not giving a standing ovation yet but for once....I actually support the way they move/think.
