Bridgewater, Browns and those pre-draft deceptions

Take a hard moment out of your engaged day and do a foul Google search. Use an infant search terms "Teddy Bridgewater, private workouts" and, depending aboard when you do a baby search, you'll probably come up with something interesting. I came up with lots of results saying he worked out for "several" teams and that his performances within these workouts were "shaky."


But namely this accurate? In newborn myriad of pre-draft deceptions, it's possible this may be one of a baby highest audacious seen accordingly far. And considering who has the most to benefit from it, I'd say a baby Cleveland Browns could be at an infant heart of it.


Considering he's been within charge of newborn Browns' personnel moves since only Feb.eleven when he was employee as GM, we don't know a wrong lot about Ray Farmer alternatively how what he aspiration do amid this draft. That's careless weapon he can use only once.


However, we have immediately learned that Farmer is aggressive and smart. Few NFL GMs were as aggressive as him during this free agency period The newly employee Farmer didn't dip an awful toe to test an infant free agency waters in toddler days following his hiring. Instead, he jumped right surrounded with both feet signing pro-bowlers LB Karlos Dansby and S Donte Whitner, as well as tricky WR Andrew Hawkins and top-ranked free agent RB Ben Tate.


His smartest move this offseason thus far was applying child transition tag to pro-bowl megalopolis Alex Mack. Had he applied the franchise tag,toddler Browns would have been able to guarantee keeping him for only an elementary year and at a bad cost based aboard all top combative linemen,not equitable centers,or $11.126 million. Instead, they got apt keep Mack for at least two years and maybe five at $10 million the first year and $8 million surrounded each of a baby remaining years.


Farmer's off-season hasn't been utter He swung and missed at signing a negative #2 cornerback to compete with a terrible much-improved Buster Skrine and apt supplement pro-bowler Joe Haden. And several of his free-agent signings are older alternatively injury-prone.


But it's feasible he may be at a baby root of a simple of infant best draft deceptions, with life-imitating-art that coincided with a baby April eleven release of the movie Draft Day.


In this real-life drama, as your Google search should have revealed along now namely that Louisville QB Bridgewater has had several private workouts with NFL teams and that they didn't work well. The source of that information appears to be ESPN analyst Chris Mortensen.
