Bruce Ariana is going to be available? Sign me up

Thought I'd heard Arians was leaning toward retirement?

Colts 4 point favorite right now.  I assume that if Indy wins, they jump Hou and the pick moves up to 4th?

Hadn’t heard Arians would retire, just that he was leaving Arizona.

i believe best pick for Houston at 4 and worst could possibly be 8 but most likely 6. Hopefully the Colts have a pride win in them.

Jackson 1st overall? Drafting 2 rb’s thru first 4 rounds? Not sure about any of that. 

Posted it more for chuckles than anything. Jackson could rise before the draft but , right now, the thought of him being taken #1 overall is funny.

Darnold/ Rosen..... Mayfield/Allen.... the rest (in that order for me). I don’t watch film but I read from analysts that I trust who do. Not one would even pick Jackson in the top 15, let alone at 1. Lol at his comment that he doesn’t even have Darnold in his top qbs.

I've seen a few mocks with Jackson #2 overall recently.  I was surprised as well.

 

I would perfer either Darnold or Rosen (if healthy).

 

Don't see a need at RB, especially if they don't get the ball in the second half of games.

My QB thoughts are a little off the wall this time around. I've liked Jackson and Mason Rudolph all year. Can't make up my mind about Rosen... it wouldn't shock me if he ended up being the best of the class but I don't feel great about it.

Hard pass on Darnold, pass on Mayfield, and I think Allen needs the right situation. Too much of a project for the Breowns.

I'm leaning Darnold just because he has been the consensus guy for the longest. Browns always pass those guys for the "it guy" or a later round guy. Don't overthink it for once and just choose the guy who has been top guy for over a year. 

Some have failed, but some have turned franchises around...

Darnold and Rosen have pretty much been the consensus 1a and 1b.  Pick one of them and don't get cute.  I would be fine with either, but would be pissed if we used the #1 overall on anyone else. Also if they hire a fucking consulting firm to help them pick a QB, please listen to the fucking consulting firm.

I’ll take Rosen. But if it’s darnold I’m alright with that. Agree with above, don’t get cute and try and pick some second or third tier guy to try and catch lightning in a bottle.

I think either Darnold or Rosen will do well here. There’s many times we could move the ball and Kizers slow/bad decision making ruined it. Hogan and Kessler both make decisions quicker but don’t have the arm to get it there.  Both Darnold and Rosen should be quicker on the trigger and better decision makers. Either will probably be a big step forward. I say probably because I’ve given up on being optimistic on Browns draft picks now.

If Hue Jackson is the head coach, NO quarterback will "do well here."

That’s also likely true. Hopefully if they insist he stays he’ll hire an OC.

I don't want him having anything to do with the molding of a young QB. I thought he did fairly well last year, game planning around Kessler's deficiences, making him look like a serviceable QB but after the way he's handled Kizer this year, no thanks.

JT still undecided on his future with the Browns....

https://scout.com/nfl/browns/Article/Joe-Thomas-still-undecided-on-his-future-with-the-Browns-112842522

An interesting question was posed on the OBR about JT's HOF induction. Who introduces him? Haven't had a coach or an owner worth a crap to do it. His dad?
