Draft needs

Looking at the team following the recent free-agent acquisitions, I think the biggest team needs, in order are:
  1. Offensive line--free agency made it better, but still no stars.
  2. Defensive line--same story. Could use a young end and dominate nose tackle.
  3. Cornerback--what seemed to be the strongest spot a year ago has been devastated by injury.
  4. Running back--Jamal Lewis is a big question mark and is only signed for 1 season.
  5. Quarterback--Neither Charlie Frye or Derek Anderson looked like the answer last season, but between the awful line and change in offensive coordinator even Peyton Manning would have looked bad.
  6. Wide receiver--Braylon Edwards is talented, but a distraction last year. Joe Jurevicius is solid but probably only has a few years left. Travis Wilson barely saw the field last year and Tim Carter has yet to live up to his billing.

At CB & DL there are no players worthy of being drafted #3, so unless the Browns trade down, its likely they will take one of the "fab five": QB JaMarcus Russell, QB Brady Quinn, RB Adrian Peterson, OT Joe Thomas, and WR Calvin Johnson.
