The Browns [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] No. 22 overall pick [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] as a rookie, but they won’t get a good feel for Weeden’s pro readiness until the bullets start flying. While Weeden draws high marks for arm strength and accuracy — which surely will translate beautifully to the practice field — the 28-year-old’s ability to sustain effectiveness under pressure is a potential stumbling block.

NFL Films guru Greg Cosell saw [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] on Weeden’s game tape, and in interviews with the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Big 12 coaches who faced Weeden in college said they noticed the same thing.

“[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.],” observed Iowa State defensive coordinator Wally Burnham, whose Cyclones defeated Weeden’s Oklahoma State Cowboys in the 2011 regular season finale. “He really threw the ball away in a hurry. I’m not saying he was scared, he just wanted to get the ball out to his hot receiver.”

Former Oklahoma defensive coordinator Brent Venables, now on Clemson’s staff, faced Weeden twice in college and similarly surmised that Weeden’s ability, or inability, to improve under duress will indicate his career path.

“The challenge in the NFL,” said Venables, “will be when the pocket’s collapsing.”

Weeden played behind a solid offensive line at Oklahoma State, and in a Big 12 conference that generated inconsistent to poor pass rush. His highlight reels largely consist of throws made from a clean pocket.

Weeden may be in for a rude awakening in the NFL. LMAO, AGAIN I AM NOT WRONG!!!

He was worth nothing less then the 37th pick AT BEST,Browns front office should have went after a WR with the 22nd pick and the pick they BLEW John Hughes the DT from Cincy on, PERIOD, NUFF SAID!!!

Holmgren said the plan was Richardson- Wright-then Weeden. If that were the case they could still have taken Stephen Hill at 37. I just dont get it! How reassuring for our incominng QB, to know he was plan B.

Now that he's here....Weeden is "Plan A." Dolt McThud is, "Plan B."..Go figure...LOL
