I bet the Browns are loving the fact that they beat the Dolphins 17-16 and the Seahawks 6-3 right about now...
Agreed. No matter what they'll get some of their bigger holes filled. It's tough to feel that LT is as dire of a need as others do, since the holes that they have other places are the size of the Grand Canyon. BUT...I really think that Ponder is going to be a solid QB, one who they have been searching for (in a young QB, not someone ready to be put out to pasture), so Drafting RG3 is not where they would go, IMO. Now if by some act of Dog, Luck falls to them, I would take him and trade Ponder (or keep Ponder as the backup and move Webb to WR). I just haven't watched enough of RG3 to be that high on him (remember that Geno Toretta even won a Heisman, so that award doesn't mean a lot, IMO). And if the best thing to do is to add a potentially elite LT to keep his jersey clean, then they need to do it. As I said before, if that's the case, they definitely need to be a player in the FA scene, as far as WR and DB go. Wallace in Purple? I think he'd make a nice compliment to Harvin. Harvin is a great slot receiver, but having him outside is a waste of his talents, IMO. He's tough over the middle, and will take the punishment. Plus running out of the slot, he's a threat for a handoff when he's in motion. Rudolph (TE) has shown some promise. He seems to have massive hands, and I saw him make several great catches last year. So getting someone on the outside seems to be a spot they really need to address somehow this offseason.
