Get these two guys and I will be happy:)

The Browns are also keeping former Falcons cornerback Brent Grimes, Owens' ex-teammate, very much on the frontburner. Grimes, who visited the Browns last Saturday, is expected to make a decision in the next few days, with opportunities to sign with the Browns, Falcons, and possibly the Dolphins.

The Browns thought so much of Grimes that they sent a private jet to pick him up, along with his wife and son. Grimes, 29, enjoyed his visit here with coach Rob Chudzinski and defensive coordinator Ray Horton, and the Browns are believed to be a viable option.

Butler, 25, is a player the Browns have been eyeing since the start of free agency, but their first priorities were to sign pass-rushers Paul Kruger of the Ravens and Desmond Bryant of the Raiders. They beat out the Saints for Kruger and the Patriots for Bryant.

While the Browns were pre-occupied, Butler (6-2, 245) visited the Steelers and then headed to New Orleans, where the Saints were determined to sign him. But after two days, he left Friday without a deal and set up his visit with the Browns. The New Orleans Times-Picayune first reported that Butler was headed this way.

Victor Butler left Cleveland unsigned but we picked up another backup DB
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Browns signed reserve defensive back Kevin Barnes to a one-year contract today, the club announced.

Barnes (6-1, 190) is the second backup cornerback the Browns have signed in free agency and the seventh player overall. The first cornerback was former Falcons cornerback Chris Owens, who was signed to a one-year deal last week worth about $1 million plus incentives.

Barnes, 26, a third-round pick of the Redskins out of Maryland in 2009, sat out of football last season after being waived by the Lions.

I've said this before and have been lucky enough to never have to pull the trigger, but if the Browns draft Geno at #6 I'm done as a Browns fan.

I'm really hoping Milliner is on the board at #6 regardless if they sign Grimes. Hopefully one of them can play FS. If not I'd try to trade down a little and take Warmack. Honestly if Milliner is gone and no one jumps at a trade down I would have no problem with Warmack at #6. Adding a top 5 guard to the best left tackle and a top 5 center would make the Browns OL the best in the league and make Weeden and Richardson's jobs much easier.

Hopefully the Raiders go full retard and take Geno so he isn't an option.

Wrong thread but appropriate none the less.. the Raiders were impressed and are considering bringing VY in after UTs Pro day when he was invited back. So drafting Geno doesn't sound like much of an option. :(:(

Besides the Ghost of AL Davis dictates they take Goodwin after his 4.2 or 4.3 fourty.

I am afraid that Milliner is the first choice, he won't be there, and then LombaRison will make the panic pick of Geno instead of doing something that will benefit the team.

I think the Jason Campbell move is flat out dumb.. and a distraction more than anything... and I don't get signing so many iffy DBs too... maybe the plan is to have a big tryout this summer.. and see who sticks...

I was thoroughly impressed with Geno Smith 1st half of season... his accuracy was unbelievable... but then as teams figured him out.. it appears he cannot read defenses... which is death knoll in NFL... they'll eat him alive

I remember reading some scout say he has "slow eyes"... alluding to not seeing things quickly enuf.. and again a killer in the NFL
