ParticipantI like Elliott’s quick first step. At first glance, don’t expect much more from Phillips beyond special teams this year.
Am I going mad, or did the word THINK escape your lips? You were not hired for your brains, you hippopotamic landmass!

ParticipantAny pick in the draft is a crap shoot Last year Mack Wilson this year Jacob Phillips, this front office seems to place their stock in the DL and secondary over the LB position.

ParticipantJacob Phillips sounds like a classic Browns linebacker, in the mold of Davis/Jackson/Kirksey/Schobert; covers well, doesn’t miss tackles, solid lateral movement, doesn’t get a lot of penetration or make plays behind the line. Basing this all on scouting reports I’ve read, haven’t seen any games of his.
Kind of a perfect fit. Our linemen are best suited to pinning their ears back and going after the ball every play. We need linebackers who can be both a capable safety net on run plays and also take advantage of forced errors by the quarterback.
