Perhaps down the road, he will change his tune. For now though, taking him as a WR isn't a possibility. Even if the he was being selected as a WR, I don't see how that helps the Browns. Rookie receivers are historically unproductive for a few years...much less a 5th or 6th round one that has literally never played the position before in his life. He definitely wouldn't be able to contribute for at least two years.Jon Landrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06285647002396519452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9311787837526355.post-51816390558284884012011-08-22T01:33:05.451-04:002011-08-22T01:33:05.451-04:00I know this is unrelated to the post, but since th...I know this is unrelated to the post, but since the topic of the browns' receivers came up (yes I brought it up) what are the odds that they deliberately waited in free agency to try to get Pryor as a WR? I know that realistically, the odds are terribly small both that they did that and that they will get him, but it's just fun to entertain the idea.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13479702144884181982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9311787837526355.post-23622939803655130752011-08-19T10:00:50.152-04:002011-08-19T10:00:50.152-04:00Sadly, special teams are like Walkman's now.

And they don't want to give up preseason games while extending the regular season. I could go on a rant about money and millionaires but I won't. But 4 preseason games are unnecessary because the starters play a total 2 quarters and the backups another 3 while the rest of the roster should be able to be picked from practice.Jeremy Bolingernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9311787837526355.post-30934544144112438462011-08-17T13:34:29.946-04:002011-08-17T13:34:29.946-04:00Actually, that kinda makes sense.
