1. Jimmy for 2nd 1st or 2nd round pick
2. Mahomes
3. Kizer
4. Ride with Kessler
5. McCarron
I want Garapollo too. He is my #1. Id still want to draft a QB if we got him though.

I'm not calling him a super bowl winning QB, but if we can add two defensive studs at picks 1 and 12, add mccarron, draft a QB in the 2nd or 3rd round to sit behind mccarron, and go 8-8 next year, I'll gladly take that and consider that progress.
You wouldn't consider that progress, you'd consider that a miracle if this team went from winning 1 to 8 games next year.

I think Kizer has the highest potential out of all the qbs in this draft. He has all the tools and football iq. My problem is the consistency. I really think if he can be consistent he could be one of the better qb's in this league. But that's a big if

There's a team every year that has a +7 game win difference from the previous year. In the NFL, if you get a competent QB and add defensive talent, you can go .500.

How is Gordon a RFA? Service time counts in rehab?

I was wondering why the NFL hasn't suspended him indefinitely yet.

Probably won't if Dallas, Seattle, or another NFL favorite teams wants to sign him.

Well it isnt like we have had to pay him, so Gordon, when he finishes his fun time at shady acres has done the TIME on his contract. I just dont trust the guy anymore. He has let us down 2 times now, fool me once, shame on you, 2wice, shame on me.

Yeah I was one of two posters that wanted Gordon traded for a bag of chips and everyone and their mom was like "OMG, he's so talented, why would you trade him?!"

Look like, again, sleeper is right.

Looks like Horton is getting the boot. Way to go on that hire Hue. The 2 rumored names so far are Greg Williams and Wade Phillips. And Grossi has already been a moron and pointed out what "defenses" they run, even tho 90% of the time now teams are in hybrid defenses. I can't wait for him and MKC to fucking go away. That woman must have naked images of all sorts of people to keep her job.

No shit. So why was he hired. Is that a knock on Hue or a lack of other alternatives?

I think Hue, thought the Front Office hasn't endured me to their Football Smarts with Draft Production and cutting Cooper for Alvin Fucking Bailey.

I love Hue from Monday-Saturday, but not a fan of him on Sundays.

I try to give him the benefit of the doubt with such a shitty roster, but every Sunday he gets out coached in the 2nd half. Every game the Browns did well in the first half and/or even had a lead turned into a complete implosion during the 2nd half. I am hoping that is because Hue's personnel is so terrible that once a team figures out the necessary adjustment, Hue really can't do anything else with his roster.

Not Hue's roster that made him continually forget his running game, or not putting the best oline out there (sitting Erving on his fucking ass), running Malcolm Johnson after Crow rambled off a big run and Duke was in concussion protocol over his 3rd string RB. Johnson fumbled obviously SMFH), etc...

Fine with me, we weren't lighting up the scoreboard. Though I think a lot of that was the lack of run play calls. Horton was a fucking joke hire which many of us called from day 1. SEEYA dumbass

Agreed I hated the play calling, but Hue calls the plays. I was just laughing at the change that happens every freaking year.

Trubisky finally declares. Adds another QB to possibly drop down. A good amount of analysts have him as the first qb taken though.

I watched about 3 games of him this season, not super impressed. Esp not at #1.
