2020 Browns

You’re a straight up moron if you want OBJ traded. 
 

Also, these uni’s always look the same. I’ve never gotten into new uniforms. Just don’t care at all about some minor tweaks to uniforms.

We gave up a 1st and 3rd for him...don’t turn him around for just a 2nd and 5th

A 2021 2nd & 5th, which is worse.

This rumor came out of NY and now Cowturd's running with it saying "OBJ wants out of Cleveland."

Hours after that rumor came out, the fountain of misinformation, MKC supposedly squashed it saying it was untrue. I wouldn't have a huge issue moving him but the haul would have to be VERY significant and that offer is a huge yawner.

Assuming (big assumption) the season starts on time, the Browns could be in a bit of a pickle. It's not certain that Landry & OBJ will be 100% so I could see them using a 2nd/3rd rounder on a WR. Atlanta supposedly has a woody for Kinlaw and may want to move up from 16 to 10. If the players they covet are gone and they can drop down to 16, get another 2nd (get a WR) and Josh Jones or Ezra Cleveland for their LT, might be worth it.

Dont trade OBJ for anything. His numbers were nuts in NY, and Id like to see what he and Baker can do with a solid line. Take a T at 10, with Conklin at RT, Tretter at C and Bitonio at LG you have a real solid line. Make or break year for Baker if the line play is good and he has these weapons. Why trade OBJ and lose the ability to have your decision made for you on Baker?

Agreed.

Unless there is just way too much drama in the locker room a la AB for the steelers where he would constantly be late,not show up, etc that didnt come out until he went full on crazy.

One of the things I am excited about with these new uniforms is it sounds like they may also be adding the orange pants to go with the brown jersey ala the Kardiac Kids days

Fond memories of those days.

As Browns fans, in our lifetime, there aren't many.

I think you are too young to remember the early to mid 60’s. Those were some great teams.

Yeah, I was born 3 years after the last championship.

So it's draft week. Who does everybody want? I want whatever OT the front office thinks is best. If that person is gone, I wouldn't mind trading with say Denver at 15.

I want Wirfs to fall (pipedream). If 2 of the OTs fall (Thomas/Wills) or someone really wants to jump the Jets for a WR (Oakland/Denver/SF) get the best deal you can and swap 1s. Hopefully there is a bidding war for Jeudy between someone and Jets and we can force the Jets to swap picks, but unlikely since the WR are so deep and closely graded.

If none of that happens, take the top OT left of the top 3. If its Becton/Cleveland, trade down. 

Can't see the Jets trading up with their lack of picks. I'm hoping a decent OT or WR falls a bit and they can trade back a few spots.

1a) Thomas 1b) Wirfs then Wills...if all are gone trade down. If those guys are gone and they don't find a trade partner, I wouldn't be stunned to see them take a WR at 10 (BPA). Yeah, I know, "but OBJ & Landry?" I'm not confident those guys will be 100% to start the season. My pipedream would be Simmons but I fear they wouldn't know how to use him ala Peppers.

Don't really want Becton or Ezra Cleveland as I don't think Becton fits what they're looking for and Cleveland's a project who could do well in pass pro but could get manhandled in the run game. I know we're hearing a lot of smoke about Cleveland but I think they like Josh Jones more but 10 would be way too high for him.

If the LB from Clemson is still there at 10, take him; otherwise a tackle.  The WR class is very deep, can certainly get quality in rounds 2-4.

If Simmons falls, it’s the only person I’d want outside a LT. 

Don't want Becton, unless it’s after a trade down. Run game masher, but not many highlights/high grades on his pass protection.

Joe Thomas, who was great at his position, isn't so great at evaluating talent, imo. He thinks Becton is best suited for the Browns scheme.

92.3 had a guy who's worked with Becton on today and called him "Hall of Fame talent" if he stays focused. Said he's real mean/nasty. Of course he's going to pimp him as he's helping him get ready for the league.

Not being a dick, but why would you think you’re better at grading an OT than Thomas? I’ll take his grade over almost anyones

BR has a weird thing against JT

Saw that pic on twitter and got so sad. Looked back at Ray Farmer’s picks as our GM. Back to back years of two first rounders and he whiffed on all four of them lol. Gilbert, manziel, Cam Erving, and Danny Shelton. You’ve gotta be really bad to go 0/4 on first round picks
