Claborne Pick May Depend On Where Richardson Lands

[jarhead]

From the Tampa bay Times.

If the Browns choose Richardson our shot a Claborne will be in jeopardy or could we see a possible trade up between Tampa and the Vikings

"BATTLE OVER RICHARDSON? Talking to Schiano, it's clear he would welcome the addition of a running back such as Alabama's Trent Richardson. When a coach openly pines for a player prior to the draft, cynics suspect a smokescreen. But when you're talking about the No. 5 pick, there's not much intrigue.

"But more and more, it looks like the Browns, at No. 4, will take Richardson before the Bucs have a shot. Cleveland GM Tom Heckert and coach Pat Shurmur attended his workout at Alabama. Texas A&M QB Ryan Tannehill is possible if the Browns decide to give up on Colt McCoy. The Browns also have to consider Oklahoma State WR Justin Blackmon.

Richardson will visit and work out for the Browns and Bucs. More and more, it looks as if Tampa Bay will pick among Richardson, Blackmon, LSU CB Morris Claiborne and, if he gets past the Vikings at No. 3, USC tackle Matt Kalil."

We have ZERO shot at taking Claiborne at #9. And, it would be stupid to give up multiple picks to move up 5 spots to try and get him. Better off staying where we are than moving up.

i see this as the most likely scenario. browns drafting tannehill doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

This just in, drafting Claiborne depends on where everyone else before him lands. Stay tuned for more details.

I'd rather Richardson ends up in Cleveland than TB.

Doubt Mo falls to us, but obvious take if he does.

The browns are in desperate need of a QB and are hell bent on getting one. Also its the Browns, they never make since.

Knowing the Browns they'll trade out of the 4th pick.

I hate the idea of drafting a RB high in the draft, so that means the Browns will probably do so.

So if he would get by Tampa I think we have a shot

[Snake]

Claiborne is a long shot but its possible with the teams picking above us. Tampa would love to have Richardson about as much as we would love to have Claiborne.

Claiborne is out of the mix.... it would be ridiculous to trade up for him seeing that we have other needs we can fill at #9.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Don't make stupid statements like this. No one is out of the mix until they get drafted. Even Luck is not a lock for the 1 spot.

Claiborne is more than likely out of the mix..... Better?
