I agree but I do want to say this because I was thinking about it recently: are the Seahawks anywhere near as effective on offense without Lynch? They're already a team carried by their defense, and I'd argue Lynch is equally, if not more, important to their offense than Wilson.
I know you're thinking, "why the F is this relevant"? Well, maybe it's possible a 1st round back with actual 1st round talent (looking at you T-Rich) is a viable pick for a team whose holes don't need to be filled with a first round talent (maybe needed a RT or a second LB etc.)
I don't mean to say that the Browns don't have other holes or that we should take Gurley; but maybe in some situations drafting a RB earlier might be worth it? This is a post better suited for the random NFL chatter thread but your post sparked something in my head. I expect this to be a minority thought.
