Now if the Jags end up at #1, just forget trading, and hopefully a team like the Vikings aren't at #2 because they're taking Hundley. Steelers end up at #2 we can also forget it, theyre not going to hand us a franchise QB. Basically we need to hope that the Jets, Bills, Raiders, NY (though they prb Clowney) end up with the #2 pick so a trade discussion can even happen. Vikings, Cards, Stillers end up there you can pretty much forget a trade. We could also end up being in the top picks as we're terrible with Weeden under center.
Regardless if we trade up for a QB, BOTH first rounds picks will be needed. A team isn't going to give us a fucking QB for flipping our first round picks and throwing in a 6th rounder. That only happens with Cleveland, trading in the division to give the ravens a HOF dlineman. Sucks but that's the market set by idiot Redskins. Hell it will probably take next year's first as well depending on how far we have to move up.
I don't see the Steeler's passing on a good trade offer just to block the Browns. They've got way too many problems of their own to pass on value simply to block us from getting what we want. However, I also agree that I don't think we will reach to trade up for a QB if no one rises above the crowd. There's no sure thing in this draft right now, and I feel like the Browns brass values the process too much to simply throw away picks for something that isn't a sure thing.
