....I will burn my season tickets on the spot if I am forced to watch 16 games of AJ McCarron and Nathan Peterman
I just think they are a very weak team as a whole and need to commit this year to building and being bad haha. They aren't ready to sell the farm for a QB yet.
They don't have to sell the farm to get one. They could give up 12, 22, 53 or 56 and 65 or 96 and still have a "normal" draft, less a 7th round pick. They have a bad roster, by design of course, as they are shipping out every Doug Whaley player and bringing their own guys in. They can't plug every hole this year anyway, and have a ton of cap space for 2019. I see them following the Rams/Eagles plan to an extent. Get the QB now, bad roster be damned, then sign vets as needed next year to plug holes and augment the draft
I think the difference is the Rams already had those elite players (Gurley and Donald) and the Eagles got an elite coach who just happened to have a lot of scheme friendly players. If you can go and get Rosen then my god do it because that's just stupid of him to fall. But that's the only guy who I would trade up for that would realistically be there. And 12, 22, 53, and 65 is selling the farm imo. That's four picks. I'd build the team this year and move up for a QB next year.
This team has been playing the next year game since Jim Kelly retired. F that noise. Get the QB and build around him. Mind you, I don't want them to give all those picks up. I'd much rather they move to 7 or 8 if someone that is not Allen (so Mayfield or Rosen) slides there, or even to 5, as opposed to #2.
I'm going to be so mad at the Browns if they get us all hyped about them actually being competent for a change and then draft Josh Allen and Minkah.
Yeah they're gonna fuck it up. Josh Allen, trade down, Minkah, Carlton Davis, Ronald Jones, etc.... rinse and repeat
I highly doubt the Browns take a DB n the first two rounds. They added Carrie and Gaines, Boddy-Calhoun is solid and FS/SS are set at Randall/Peppers.
I wouldn't put Gaines or Carrie at CB1 imo. Good complementary guys but the Browns could actually use another CB
