Mock Offseason

CutDonald Penn - Had a good run here but his time is done.Michael Keonen - Cut his salary and pick up someone a lot cheaperResignEric Lorig -Good blocking fullbackJamon Meredith - Let him compete for a starting positionAndrew Economos - If it aint broke why fix it Adam Hayward - Special Teams captain and provides depth at all 3 LB position.RestructureDavin Joseph - Davin isn't stupid and knows he won't get a big contract if cut. He is very active in the community and really enjoys it in Tampa, so he decides to take a paycut and compete for a starting job.Carl Nicks - Not exactly sure how his contract works, just know it don't save us to much money to cut him, so he has all the leverage. Plus you don't know with his toe if he will ever play again. Not sure what were gonna do with him, but feel like something has to be done.Free AgentsAlex Mack - I think he will be our number 1 priority. Has knowledge of Tedford offense which will come in handy when teaching the playbook and making calls at the line. Plus I doubt many of their players want to stay in Cleveland right now. Jared Allen - No team is gonna break the bank for a 32 year old defensive end, so he decides to follow Frazier and end his career in sunny Florida.Charles Tillman - Like Allen, no team is gonna break the bank for a 33 year old CB, so he follows Smith and ends his career in Florida. He will come in as our nickel back, which Frazier has said it pretty much a starter in today's football. Josh McCown - Comes in and serves as competition/mentor to Glennon.Dexter McCluster/Emmanuel Sanders - Would like to see one of these 2 signed, preferably Sanders. Unfortunately I don't know if either one of these players make it to free agency. Would give us that speed in space that Tedford is looking for.Pat Angerer - Has experience in this type of defense, and would be a stopgap in the middle for a year or 2 until we can improve. This moves Foster outside and takes him out in nickel situations. Draft1. Hou - Blake Bortles - Houston decides to go with the QB who is bigger and has the stronger arm out of the top 3 QB's.2. StL - Jake Mathews - Jake Long just tore his ACL and is getting up there in age. 3. Jax - Jadveon Clowney - I think one of the top teams trade a second for Kirk cousins, and in this case I think its Jacksonville. Gus Bradley is a defensive minded coach and knows how important a pass rush is, and will not beable to pass up the potential Clowney has.4. Cle - Johnny Manziel - It comes down between Manziel and Bridgewater, and I think they go with the more exciting Manziel just to try to excite their fan base.5. Oak - Sammy Watkins - Calling it now Josh Freeman will be a Raider next year, reunited with Greg Olsen and will compete with Pryor and McGloin for starting QB. To make the competition a little easier Oakland goes with one of the most explosive WR's in the draft.6. Atl - Anthony Barr - Atlanta needs help protecting the passer the rushing the passer, and in the end they decide to go with the 2nd best pass rusher in the draft.7. TB - Greg Robinson - And Tampa fans everywhere riot for passing on what many believe is the number 1 QB prospect for an OT. But hear me out, I don't see much difference between him and Mike Glennon, besides that Bridgewater is shorter and slightly more athletic, although Glennon has showed he can avoid contact and throw on the run if need be. Lovie has spent the whole offseason analyzing where he went wrong, and we all know it started with the offensive line. Its why hes trying to go out and get a proven offensive line coach. Plus Tedford wants to run a power run scheme which Robinson would be perfect in. I think Lovie feels confident going into training camp with McCown and Glennon, and if Glennon proves hes not the answer well get one in next years draft, when the talent is a little better and we have less holes to fill where if we have to trade up we can.Rd. 2 - CJ Fiedorowicz - I think if ASJ is there he will be the pick, but assuming hes gone I really like CJ as a prospect, and think him and Wright would compliment eachother well. He will help right away in the running game, and could eventually be a consistent and trustworthy 3rd down target.Rd. 4. - Aaron Murray - He tore his ACL so he falls in the draft, and we will use this year as a "medical redshirt" season, where he can take his time rehabbing while also learning the playbook, kinda what San Fran did with Lattimore. He will come in next year and add competition to the QB position.Rds 5 - 7 - BPASo what do you guys think. I think this is all realistic and would help fill quite a few holes on this team and should have us in the playofff hunt.

According to that site, and reports I'm reading online, Greg Robinson won't be such a reach at 7. In fact I have read that he could challenge Jake Mathews as the number 1 tackle off the board. I think he fits what we want in our O-line, and Lovie will make sure not to make the same mistakes twice and get a good line in place. The more I read up on him the more I think he is our pick if he is there.
