Brandon Weeden: Stud or Dud?

Welcome to a weekly blog post on the new rookies in the NFL leading up to the begining of the season. Today we will start with the 21st overall pick in the draft: QB Brandon Weeden of the Clevland Browns. Brandon Weeden is a 29 year old rookie. Something you don't see often in football, but this is due to the fact of being drafted by the New York Yankees when he was a pitcher. He eventually changed to football and become a 1st round pick in the NFL Draft. "He has a breakout star (Joshua Cribbs) on his team", reported analyst M Cat. He also has Trent Richardson (a future Stud or Dud? player) on his team who is big enough to run through anyone to help support play action passing, but Weeden is a rookie with a extremley young team that can cause problems in experience. They have to also compete against teams including: Ray Rice and the Ravens, Ben Rothleinsburger and the Steelers, and AJ Green and the Bengals. Do to these teams with tough defense and offense I must reluctantly call Brandon Weeden a DUD for now.
