Yeah, and they have a sudden need, too, with Harold Landry tearing his ACL at practice this week.

Haeg is signing with Cleveland:

The Browns are signing veteran OL Joe Haeg, source says. With RT Jack Conklin working his way back from knee surgery, Haeg provides depth at tackle and he can play guard, too. Haeg met with the Raiders last week but heads to Cleveland instead.

I really liked Haeg. Ballard obviously not so much. Until he proves otherwise I’m going to believe in Ballards ability to scout offensive lineman. Only big mistake was Fisher. Ballard made a bet on an injury and lost. Like Wentz he moved on, I like that.

I think Fisher was Ballard's homer pickup as Wentz was to Reich. :cool:

I had had thoughts that we should have kept Turay instead of Banogu. With Turay being cut by SF once again Ballard seems to know more than me. Imagine that!

The jury's still out on whether that was the right move or not as while Turay wasn't great, he was head and shoulders better here than Banogu has been.

Hopefully Banogu makes a giant leap this year and becomes not completely worthless, but most of us have our doubts.

I still think Turay and Banogu both look like busts. I had thought Turay was turning the corner.

That's fair. While Turay has had some flashes when he's been able to stay healthy, neither is really much count.

Not aimed at you, asking questions about expectations

Just out of curiosity, what is the % of draft picks getting to a second contract with the draft team or their second team?

Drafting Peyton Manning seems like a no brainer, how many here thought Antonie Bethea would play 10 years?

Turay imo, is a disappointment, not shocked. I didnt think Banogu would make the team his rookie year.

Jerry Hughes was a bust for the Colts. He made the Bills look likes geniuses.

I think the rate for draft picks to make the roster is just a little over 50%, so making it to a second contract would likely be close to 35-40%, but that is just an uneducated guess from me based on something I think I heard about draft picks being a 50/50 proposition.
