On The Mark 5.4.15: Cleveland #Browns 2015 #NFLDraft Review

By @MarkW2112

The Cleveland Browns came away with 12 new players during the 2015 NFL Draft this past week.  Each player filled a need for the team and, in many ways, upgraded those positions drastically.  Here is the final list of new players: 

Danny Shelton, DT, Washington
1st Round, #12 pick overall 
Danny came in to the draft as the second best DT next to Leonard Williams.  At 339 pounds, he is exactly what the Browns need to try and plug up their run defense which was, yet again, horrific last year after Phil Taylor went down with injuries.  The Browns will see if he does live up to the Halata Ngata comparisons. 

Cameron Erving, C, Florida State 
1st Round, #19 pick overall:  
The Browns went in to meltdown mode on the offensive side of the ball last year when Alex Mack went down with a broken leg.  Which is why they drafted the versatile center who played left tackle in 2013.  Projected to play right guard in 2015, he should have no problems transitioning to center if/when Mack opts out of his contract after this season. 

Nate Orchard, OLB, Utah 
2nd round, #51 overall  
Orchard led the nation in sacks with 18.5 for the Utes.  He was projected to play in a 3-4 defense as an OLB pass rusher which should be a perfect fit for him to take over as Jabaal Sheard's replacement.  He'll join fellow Ute alumni Paul Krueger as the Browns look for more sacks in the coming season. 

Duke Johnson, RB, Miami.  
3rd round, #77 overall 
After losing out on getting Chris Conley from Georgia when Kansas City traded in front of them, the Browns selected Johnson, who's excellent vision and good hands will give the Browns a complimentary weapon in the backfield if not their new starting RB in 2015.  He left Miami as a their all time leader rusher with an average of 6.69 YPC during his 3 years.  He will also see time as a return man on special teams if not their new punt returner. 

Xavier Cooper, DT, Washington State 
3rd round, #97 overall 
The Browns traded picks to the New England Patriots to move back up in to the third round and select Cooper who was a possible pick for the Cincinnati Bengals at #99.  Cooper brings in the potential to be a disruptive pass rusher as he had 11 sacks last season.  He's a former TE and basketball player who has quick feet and excellent hand technique.  He should fit in perfectly with what the Browns are looking for as a rotational defensive end. 

Ibraheim Campbell, S, Northwestern 
4th round, #115 overall 
Looking to upgrade the safety position as well as an heir apparent to Donte Whitner, the Browns took Campbell as their first fourth round pick.  He will work well on special teams as his tackling as improved over time at Northwestern.  Projected in the 7th round, the Browns may have reached but obviously see potential in what some have called a "poor mans Landon Collins". 

Vince Mayle, WR, Washington State 
4th round, #123 overall 
Mayle has only been a receiver for 2 years but had 2 games where he had 252 receiving yards last year.  While Combine 40 time wasn't impressive, he appears to have a surprisingly quick burst once he gets the ball.  He will come in projected as the fourth or fifth receiver option but should see work as a kick returner on special teams his first year. 

Charles Gaines, CB, Louisville 
6th round, #189 overall 
For Mike Pettine, you can never have enough cornerbacks.  Which is why Gaines was chosen as the first of three 6th round picks for the Browns.  Gaines was a projected third round pick so the Browns got good value from him.  He could contribute to special teams as well as a possible nickelback if Justin Gilbert continues to struggle. 

Malcolm Johnson, TE, Mississippi St.   
6th round, #195 overall 
Johnson will more than likely be used as an H back/fullback more than a true tight end.  Known for his good hands and a vocal leader with MSST, he has the potential to bring some blocking in to create holes for the running backs and another special team specialist. 

Randall Telfer, TE, USC 
6th round, #198 overall 
Telfer only had 197 yards receiving but looks to be more of a blocking tight end.   

Hayes Pullard, ILB, USC 
7th round, 219 overall 
Going back to USC, the Browns took Pullard to bring in as a backup ILB.  Had some success but doesn't appear to be anything more than special teams depth at this time. 

Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, CB, Oregon 
7th round, 241 overall 
In what could be the steal of the draft, the Browns selected Ekpre-Olomu with their final selection.  If not for a severe knee injury he could have been a first round pick.  He is a tenacious player that could be a starter, possibly at safety, if he is able to come back from the knee injury.  Defintely a low risk/high reward pick for the Browns. 

My take:  The Browns went out and drafted football players.  Nothing flashy, just guys who were solid in their college careers.  They may have drafted themselves at least 3-4 players that could be starters this year.  Obviously, the quarterback position wasn't addressed but it appears the Browns are all in with McCown and Manziel in 2015.  But they more than addressed their defensive efficiencies, strengthened their offensive line and grabbed a wide receiver.  The Browns had an excellent approach by drafting  immediate starters in the first 2 rounds as well as thinking of the future. 

Draft grade: B+

Semi Final action saw Bad News Barrett defeat R-Truth and Neville defeat Sheamus. Later in the Finals, Bad News Barrett defeated Neville and became the 2015 King Of The Ring.

- WWE have stated that they are planning to show more live events in the future on WWE Network much like they did for the King of the Ring. More advantages of subscribing to WWE Network.

Hope it's a very good reason they come up with of why she faked being Russian and they just don't say "BOOM I'm American now".

Wrestling Lockup with Brandon 5.1.15: #SmackDown & #NXT Recap

By @B_Rock1978

Wrestling Lockup with Brandon, brought to you by Triple Threat CLE.  It's this week's NXT and Smackdown recaps for the week.

*** NXT ***

- NXT was taped in Orlando Florida, at Full Sail University.

- In Ring Promo with Kevin Owens: Owens talks about how he was about to end Alex Riley last week and everyone's hero, Sami Zayn, made the save. Owens calls out Zayn, but NXT GM William Regal appears instead. Regal tells Owens he doesn't make the rules around here, Regal does. Owens sarcastically apologizes and says he doesn't remember calling Regal out, he called out Sami Zayn. Zayn appears and he heads to the ring. Regal announces at the next Takover pay per view, it'll be Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens for the NXT World Title. Owens says he'll fight, but Zayn hasn't done anything to deserve a title shot. Zayn says everything he's done the past twelve years Kevin Owens has tried to achieve too and it looks like Owens is trapped in Zayn's shadow. Zayn continues to throw reasons for Owens to put up the title and Owens finally agrees to it. 

- Enzo Amore, Big Cass and Carmella are talking. Carmella says she can handle herself and tells Enzo and Cass to leave.

Leadoff with Lee 5.1.15 #Shelton #Browns #NFLDraft #BillyDonovan #Game7

By @cleeverizon
- With the 12th pick in the draft the Cleveland Browns went with run stopper Danny Shelton from Washington.

Here's what we need to know about Shelton courtesy of NFL.com:                               
COMBINE RESULTS
40 YARD DASH: 5.64 SEC
BENCH PRESS: 34 REPS
VERTICAL JUMP: 30.5 INCH
BROAD JUMP: 95.0 INCH
3 CONE DRILL: 7.99 SEC
20 YARD SHUTTLE: 4.65 SEC

STRENGTHS
Bends well for a big man and has ability to play with leverage. Space-eater who is able to maintain good positioning against double teams. Consistently gets his hands inside offensive linemen first. Controls, sees it and sheds to make tackles. Surprising ability to swat cut blocks and chase stretch plays laterally. Played a high percentage of Washington's defensive snaps. Has the strength and athleticism to dominate in the running game.

WEAKNESSES
Despite girth and leverage potential, can be a little inconsistent at getting push off snap. Dominates lesser centers but doesn't seem to look nearly as dominant against more talented centers. Will quit on a play when he's blocked. Produced eye-catching sack numbers for his position in 2014, but much of it was against lesser competition. Must work to keep weight in check.

NFL COMPARISON
Vince Wilfork

BOTTOM LINE
With his thick frame and powerful upper body, Shelton has moments where he can dominate at the point of attack. He was forced to chase sideline to sideline due to the nature of Pac-12 offenses, but when he faced downhill competition like Stanford, he stepped up. Shelton is an above average interior pass rusher for a man his size thanks to his surprising athleticism. He is a fit in a two-gap scheme and could benefit from playing fewer snaps than he was forced to play at Washington.   

- With the 19th pick the Browns chose offensive lineman Cam Erving from Florida State. Erving is a versitle lineman who will compete for a job on the right side of the offensive line,and may be the Browns center of the future considering Alex Mack will be a free agent after next season.  

HT: 6'5" WT: 313LBS.
POSITION: C
SCHOOL: Florida St.
ARM LENGTH: 34 1/8"
HANDS: 10 3/8".

He came to Florida State as an unheralded defensive tackle from Colquitt County (Ga.) and redshirted in 2010 after a back injury. In 2011, had 20 tackles and a sack as a backup defensive tackle. Switched to the offensive side of the ball to help shore up Seminoles' pass protection in 2012 and started all 14 games at left tackle, protecting future first-round QB EJ Manuel's blind side. In 2013, started all 13 games at left tackle and was named first-team All-ACC for the national champion Seminoles. Two-time winner of the Jacobs Blocking Trophy given to the ACC's top blocker. Named first-team All-ACC tackle and third-team All-ACC center after making switch inside toward the end of the 2014 season. Was very close with grandmother (Lillie Lewis), who passed away in the spring of 2014 after one-year battle with pancreatic cancer.

- Jameis Winston became the number one overall selection in the NFL draft by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Winston is considered the most NFL ready quarterback in this years draft.
