Corey Coleman

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
We are deep at the position. Coleman disappointed, we have 2 studs at WR, and between Njoku, The Duke, and all of the field of potential (Hollywood, Callaway), Coleman was the odd man out.

Smart of the Browns to get a pick and I am sure Coleman wanted out as well. This is a trade where both teams win.
 
Unless the kid was just an absolute asshole to deal with, I just don't really understand unloading him for basically nothing.

He was young, cheap and still had some upside.
Agreed. Outside of Landry, putting all your eggs in essentially the Gordon/Calloway basket is pretty risky given their off the field history.
 
Well, if he goes to Buffalo and has a breakout year like a lot of third-year receivers do it'll just make it look like we were incompetent and cut bait too soon.

Prob a conditional pick.
 
What 1st round WR “broke” out in year three that didn’t in year 1 or 2. Curious....

These guys weren't all first round picks, but guys like Demariyus Thomas, Eric Decker, Mo Sanu, DeVane Adams, Nelson Agholor, Steve Smith, Lee Evans, Adam Thielen, Jerricho Cotchery, Roddy White, Greg Jennings, Lance Moore, Sidney Rice all saw pretty dramatic increases in production in year 3.

Hell, Dez Bryant is another guy who saw a pretty big spike in Year 3.

The only first rounder since 2012 that you can put in that category, maybe, is Michael Crabtree.

Every other first rounder either showed up before year 3 or busted for good.

That sounds like a shitload of work to look up if you're narrowing it down to solely first round picks. It seems like a meaningless distinction at any rate, as guys develop at different rates regardless of their draft position.

All I know is that it's generally acknowledged that WRs can take three to four years to break out. If they don't break out by year four, you can usually chalk them up as busts. It was the 2014 draft that kind of screwed up everyone's expectations for rookie receivers, as that one had several guys who were year one stars, which is rare.

You also have to account for the fact that it's not as if Coleman was garbage. When he played and got a decent number of targets, he typically had good games. He just missed a ton of time with injuries and had to deal with very inconsistent targets and QB accuracy when he did play. There's a big difference between a guy who flashes talent and has a bunch of good games his first two years and a guy like Mike Williams who had 95 yards his rookie year (and even him I think it would be foolish to give up on already).
 
Lol at people thinking we'll get a third for Coleman.
I'll be shocked if its anything better than a 5th.

Don't think many thought that. Hope is different from think.
 
Not that I'm mad or upset with anything regarding Coleman, or the people who drafted him, but Browns just keep suffering with their 1st rounders.

Yes and maybe the bills will also hire Brown as thier new GM and Thier fans will also take pride in PFT stats that have nothing to do with actually winning games like posters did here for two whole wasteful years.

Don't waste your time with people who get off on bashing Sashi. Let them have their "win", as if it means anything, and move on. They'd rather be right than see the Browns succeed.

Quite a time to stan for Sash, after another pick of his is jettisoned for peanuts.
 
Third round doesn't sound like "late round".
Considering it’s all been “undisclosed” and not in Schefty’s tweet, I don’t believe anything until I see it. Or the conditions.
