What if 12 and 19 turned into Mychael Kendricks, Sam Bradford, and 20 or a future 1st?

No.

If we trade the 12 and 19, and then turn around and trade it to the Eagles, better walk away with a kings ransom.

I'm don't want Bradford, I"m asking for Lane Johnson, Fletcher Cox, This years 1st, and Next years 1st.

No thanks on Ray.

Already in the NFL Drug Program, plus a Toe injury, I'll pass.

I'm pretty damn confident that Farmer will not f*ck this up. This is the least anticipated draft for me that I can remember. Between the Cavs, early season Indians, decently new job, and the draft being in May instead of April, I just haven't really cared or thought about it but now that it's here I'm pretty excited to see what happens.

Hoping for Shelton/Irving (12&19)
WR like Nelson Agular in the 2nd

If we trade both 1st for MM then I want Carl Davis in the 2nd.

If we must go wr I hope it's not for Parker/Perriman. Then get best NT left at 19, then Tomlinson (pwn guard) in the 2nd.

Go Browns!

That makes one of us. If he's feeling any pressure, whether real or perceived, from Haslam, I could see him making a panic move (i.e. Mariota).

I'd be fine with them dumping the late first for Bradford. I'm likely wrong but I still think Bradford will be a Brown by the end of this evening. I know Bradford wants to be with Shurmur again but he just doesn't seem to fit what Chip Kelly is trying to do there as much as Mariota does.

It's all media storyline bullshit but a lot of people are convinced the Browns will come away from this draft with Sam Bradford and the Iggles with Mariota.

We shall see.

I trust Farmer

I don't know how much the "media storyline" plays into the Bradford to the Browns speculation. The Browns already offered #19 to the Rams for him. There's obviously some interest there. Or at least there was. Now Mariota getting to the Eagles is going to be a bit trickier.

Who cares? THREE games. Jones "may" turn out to be a legit QB but nobody knows after THREE games. If he looks good this year I might lean that way but I'm very skittish of bringing in any OSU players unless they are an O-Lineman or a DB. Those seem to be the only positions that come out of OSU that do well at the next level.

Are you on the Mariota bangwagon now?

He could turn out to be ok, but no fucking way would I give up 2 first rounders to find out.

I honestly don't know what bandwagon BR is on lol one day he wants a QB no matter what, next day he's against taking Mariota.

Here's what I want...Mariota. Get him.

The 3 games just show he can win in a big time games under a lot of adversity and pressure. It's not like Cardale's 3 games were against scrub components and he played game manager; the guy literally carried the team(along with EZE) and put up big points against some of the toughest defenses in college. What has Mariota done in his career that even comes close to that?

No, not at all. Selling the farm for Mariota either means Farmer is a) desperate or b) already has a guarantee from Haslam that Jimmy will stick with the current group and see things through, which I don't see with Haslam.

The biggest issue with grabbing Mariota, for me, is that "what if they don't get results in year 1?" Will Haslam be patient or will he fire the Farmer/Pettine group? If this happens, will the new group like Mariota? If they don't you wasted two 1st's (and likely more) for a QB that may not be around long.

That's why I'd rather them use the late 1st on Bradford.

Slobbering all over Cardale Jones' knob after 3 games shows nothing but being a blind homer. I'd love to see the kid pan out and be a legit option for the Browns but THREE games is not a larger enough sample size to be claiming him as some kind of savior.

I want the QB but I want Bradford. Less cost/risk than selling the farm.

The only things that will piss me off is if they sell out for Mariota and if they stay put at #12 & #19 and I hear the words "Brashad Perriman" uttered in association with one of those picks.

I'm not sure if you meant to quote another link but you must not know anything about Tyvis Powell to take that seriously, lol.

He's 6'5, 250lbs who made big time throws against some of the toughest defense in college football. Over the 3 games he started, he had a 61% completion rate, 5 TDs, 2 INTs and had longs of 44, 47, 50 all on being a 3rd string QB who got barely any reps all season. The guy is an NFL QB and he will prove it again next year when he leads his team to an undefeated season, winning another national championship and likely a Heisman.

Mariota? He's a 6'4 200lb guy who won a lifetime acheievement award Heisman who couldn't get it done one time at Oregon. This is the trash you want to lead the Browns? He sucks.

I'm guessing the use of "my son", "lol", or his fucking handle "Fidel Ca$hflow" didn't make that clear. :laugh:
