My shock of the draft, the Browns trade out of the top 4, yep, both picks

Postby UATahoe » Wed Apr 25, 2018 2:52 pm

I feel like they shock everybody and drop down the board with multiple mid 1st round picks. I feel like the middle of this draft is going to be really stacked given the QB frenzy up top. My opinion is that really none of these QB's are sure fire homeruns. The mid round value could be huge.

As long as Barkley doesn’t end up on their roster, they can do anything and I’ll be content. #HydeOwner

As long as they come away with Bradley Chubb, Cleveland fans should be happy.

If they trade out of both picks - there's zero chance they end up with Chubb.

The REAL question is who gets drafted first - Chubb or Barkley?

Honestly think they'd be smart to. Tyrod Taylor isn't a crappy guy and their offense has a ton of tools. I wish they could get a high end coach there and give the coach more security and control. But they'll probably do something stupid instead.

They will use both picks but not on a QB...Saquan @ 1, Chubb @ 4. Then they will use Tyrod and take a run at the trash AFC.

I would definitely be trading out of 1. I just don’t think one of these Qb’s is worth the #1. They all seem to be a gamble. They may guess and get lucky but their track record says they won’t. I would move out, play Tyrod, and try to grab more mid round picks and stock up. They could keep 4 and get Chubb then have a couple of additional 1st’s.

Their "track record" doesn't mean much with a new GM..

That’s what I would do. It’s not like Tyrod isn’t at least serviceable. Plus, they could always get a QB prospect later on in the draft.

They'd be better off drafting 2 QBs than none. How many more years are they going to languish around with no QB and a roster that every message board brainiac thinks is pretty darn good every offseason only to see them win 2 games?

Might just be smoke - but hard to see them trading out of #1 if their GM is saying this ...
Please speak to clarion contrarion before considering the use of vetos..

It makes 0 sense to me. They can get Josh Allen at 4. Why not take Barkley 1st and then decide between Allen and Chubb at 4?

Draft 2 in the hopes that 1 pans out. A good QB is the difference between a 4 win team and a 10 win team. This team is far more than a RB or DE away from competing. They need to do whatever it takes to get a QB.

If the 1st guy pans out the 2nd guy will still have plenty of trade value.
