08:04 AM ET 04.27 | Da'Quan Bowers is hoping teams disregard speculation that his knee isn't healthy -- particularly the Browns. Bowers said teams that buy into the rumors will be sorry. "Whoever drafts me, I'll do my very best to give them what they want," said Bowers. "For the teams that don't draft me, they'll have to wonder why when I play against them." Bowers said his visit to Cleveland was one of his favorites and that he got along great with the new coaches. "I feel like I can really make an impact there as a rookie," he said. "I think I'd fit well in that defense and be able to help them out. I feel like there's something special going on in with the Browns and I'd like to be a part of it."

Except Bowers.

He wants to go high in the draft and make big bucks. He'd be even happier if a real team traded up to get him, but I don't think that's going to happen.

Come to think of it, the last time someone said they wanted to play for Cleveland, the year was 1985, and the man in question was Bernie Kosar, so it's been a while.

It's the smoke coming off the Cuyahoga River. Burn on.

I guess making the jump to the NFL is scary enough without the pressure of playing for a winner. He did play his college ball at Clemson, after all.
