Re: Draft day 2018

I agree if Hernandez falls he'd be a hell of a pick. I think Guice is the only RB left I'd take over him.

Re: Draft day 2018

BTW there is a good amount of secondary talent left on the board too. Wouldn't mind if we took Josh Jackson for example. But I think we will be able to grab one in the 4th or 5th that could potentially push for playing find this year. This may have been part of what went into the decision of Payne over James. There is a significant drop off in NT talent after Payne and Vea, like may make the practice squad kid of stop off, whereas there are a lot of safeties and corners that are potential early starters left on the board.

Re: Draft day 2018

Browns at 1-4 first round and came out:

Baker Mayfield
D Ward

They had D Ward rated higher than Chub and Nelson? Baker was on the top QB on the board?

Lotta risk here...

I thought ward was a reach, I think Lattimore's success with NO had some influence with the pick.

The Browns screwed up again. No matter who the GM is, they just can't get it right. Is there something in the water there or did that homeless man on the grate advise the owner on their picks again?

Horrible, horrible drafting! Baker Mayfield is not the person to set the right example for his teammates. Passing on Chubb and Nelson at #4 in favor of an undersized CB was ridiculous.

All of his teammates at OU loved him, this is once again perception of the media, don't let that fool u. He's not Manziel, the kid has earned everything he has. 2 walk on spots to a Heisman trophy. That doesn't happen by accident. Will he be a star? Nobody knows but it was the right pick for them.

Re: Draft day 2018

These aren’t the same old Browns making these picks, I think Scot McCloughan had a lot of influence there with taking Mayfield

Browns' Scot McCloughan still has Baker Mayfield as his top QB 'hands down' and Kirk Cousins not 'special' | cleveland.com

Still would have taken Chubb at #4 though.

Also, QBs coming from spread offenses in college struggle to say the least with transitioning to NFL. I think these kinds of guys need to sit the bench for 1-2 years.

I know this is a biased opinion, because I didn't want Barkley to fall to the Giants, but I feel that the Browns could have easily done Barkley #1 and Mayfield would have still been there at #4.

Yeah but when I said that people gave me the "If you have a QB go get them" speech.

I think if that had happened the giants would have traded down for a lot of picks. Hate that they got Barkley and Hernandez - they will be great players for them for years.

Re: Draft day 2018

Hue Jackson knows QB's as well, it was a good pick.

Sidenotes

ESPN Coverage is awful, Louis is the only guy i like.. Trey Wingo is so washed up and corny, Kiper is who he is...

Joe Flacco will be the starting QB in NY in 2019.
