I plan on enjoying mine as much as I can, considering that I&#8217;m planning on watching\u00a0<em>Nosferatu<\/em>\u00a0this evening. The movie seems grim, but I&#8217;m a big fan of the director, so I will put myself through it as my wife (who refuses to watch it) will be otherwise occupied this evening. Therefore, I&#8217;m free to watch whatever movie I want. Usually, I opt for something involving explosions, space aliens, and lasers at this juncture, but I can&#8217;t find anything like that available, so vampires it is.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of bloodsuckers, the aggregators and clickbaiters who infest the Browns media space have been busy over the last 24 hours, so let&#8217;s use this space to do reality checks on the latest nonsense passing for &#8220;Browns news&#8221; that we&#8217;ve seen over the last 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Todd McShay Says Something and I Don&#8217;t Care<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Todd McShay needs to shut up. I have no idea what he&#8217;s doing these days. I think he&#8217;s no longer being used as a tame Mel Kiper foil on ESPN, but he&#8217;s still talking about draft picks. Yesterday, he waxed poetic about one of my favorite Buckeyes, Treveyon Henderson:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Not surprised to hear this praise from Todd McShay about TreVeyon Henderson. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/5hChfHMyKq\">pic.twitter.com\/5hChfHMyKq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; tOSU State of Mind (@bucks3317) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bucks3317\/status\/1885169457716220373?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 31, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>First off, anyone who impales themselves on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/@OrangeAndBrownReport\">OBR Weekly<\/a>\u00a0video feed regularly knows I&#8217;ve picked Henderson as my favorite draftable Buckeye of 2025, and I generally ramble about the same things McShay says here: He&#8217;s not only an explosive runner but a complete player who blocks and catches well out of the backfield. I know this because I&#8217;m unbiased regarding the world-famous Ohio State Buckeyes, who, in case you have forgotten, are the National Champions of College Football.<\/p>\n<p>McShay hypes him further, saying he&#8217;s a possible Round 1 draft pick.<\/p>\n<p>Two things: (1) McShay needs to be quiet since I don&#8217;t want Henderson to be hyped and go early, and (2) all the aggregators I saw pimped this as Henderson being a &#8220;rumored Browns target.&#8221; There is no &#8220;rumor&#8221; that he&#8217;s a Browns target. Nothing substantial. That&#8217;s just BS or wishful thinking. There&#8217;s no indication from inside Berea that they focus on him more than anyone else.<\/p>\n<p>So, Todd McShay says something so obvious even I&#8217;ve been saying it, and I wish he wouldn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ratbirds are Hypocrisy on the Wing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Justin Tucker&#8217;s fall from grace has been abrupt. First, he fell apart on the field, and now his legacy off the field looks dark and ugly. We&#8217;re familiar with the types of accusations he&#8217;s been targeted with here in Cleveland and the associated self-loathing that comes from being forced to watch a player alleged to engage in such behavior.<\/p>\n<p>During the Watson process, Ratbird head coach John Harbaugh made sure he got up on his soapbox to proclaim how the Rats, who have a statue of Ray Lewis outside their stadium, are above such matters and have a zero-tolerance policy for this type of behavior.<\/p>\n<p>As of now, Justin Tucker is still a Rat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ian Rapoport Shares Deep Revelations about Browns Draft Plans<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This was hyped as Rapoport revealing the Browns draft plans by the usual suspects, but it&#8217;s just a guess. He says, &#8220;They&#8217;re likely to take a quarterback&#8221; based on need, not inside information, as far as I can tell. There is no mention of sources, so I&#8217;m reading this as a guess, little more informed than yours or mine. But it&#8217;s Rapoport, and aggregators like clicks, so off we go.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Browns and the Giants are both \u201clikely\u201d to take a quarterback in the NFL draft, per <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RapSheet?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RapSheet<\/a> \ud83d\udc40<\/p>\n<p>(via <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RapSheet?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RapSheet<\/a>) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/922DoigS1h\">pic.twitter.com\/922DoigS1h<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; B\/R Gridiron (@brgridiron) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/brgridiron\/status\/1885140712481837273?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 31, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Sigh.
