Quote:Worked? How? The new GM didn't take Richardson but was able to get a first round for him. The Colts gave away a premium pick, just like they did last year for Vontae Davis. How does that trade look now? Not sure what Grigson is doing to be honest. Trading away these picks is going to catch up with you eventually.

 

The Current Browns GM did not take Trent Richardson in the draft this is true, but he did have this to say about him a few days before the draft while working as an analyst for NFL Network/NFL.com

 

"I believe the safest pick in the draft—beyond Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III—is Alabama running back Trent Richardson. He’s a blue-chip player and has all the skills to quickly establish himself as a top-five player at his position. Forget the nonsense about not taking backs early—everyone would love the chance to get this guy."
