Dream scenario right here.

No way micheal lasts to the 3rd round. But any scenario that gives us Rosen and Fitzpatrick I’m beyond happy. But what I would love is to pick them 2 and trade into the first round again and get Guice.

In silly season news, Ocho Cinco sends out a tweet that the Browns will get Kirk Cousins, Joe Thomas says the Browns are the "frontrunner" and Jags WR Allen Robinson "likes" Ocho's tweet.....

On a side note, for those who want JT to not retire, you'd better hope they land Cousins because I think that's the ONLY way he's coming back.

Hue Jackson playing QB for the University of Pacific. He dropped back to pass 5 times, 3 sacks and 2 INTs. LOL

On the recent ep of Tomahawk, Hawkins tells a story about Gordon and Hoyer feuding, and at one point during meetings, Hoyer sat down on a couch next to JG (who was playing Madden), so Josh pauses the game and subs out Hoyer for Johnny. LMAO

Was this the podcast with Travis Kelce where Kelce said before he was drafted he begged and literally cried to Chudzinski for the Browns to draft him but they passed because they already had Jordan "I never met a concussion I didn't like" Cameron?

The more I watch high lights of Rosen the more I love him. His accuracy and anticipation is unreal

Rosen, Mayfield & Darnold are all top end QB prospects. As good as Winston (as a prospect) IMO. If Mayfield were 2 in taller, he'd be the run away #1 pick IMO.

Congrats to Pederson. 

Put an asterisk on that t-shirt that lists all our quarterbacks since 1999.

They've already started beating the "how much would you give up for Foles" drum on the local stations. smh

He's not, and there's no way he is regardless.

Yeah, I wouldn't be so sure of that. This new front office guy (McCloughan) they hired yesterday absolutely loves Mayfield.

If he were 2" taller, he'd be a no brainer. I get it...he's not, which is a huge concern. It's not like using a 3rd rounder on a Russell Wilson and hoping he turns into Russell Wilson/Drew Brees. It's the top pick int he draft, which is scary as Hell.

Thinking about #4 pick, would you consider moving back from #4 for both of Buffalo's 1st Round picks? Buffalo owns #21 & #22.

Have heard a few conversations about this. 92.3 had a writer from Atlanta on yesterday who seems to think this new front office group is going to change the course for the Browns. He said he thinks they are going to trade down one of those picks.

If they go the free agency or trade QB route, I'd say all bets are off at keeping that #1 pick. I'll be pissed if they use the pick on Barkley at #1, assuming they were to sign Cousins or trade for someone like Foles (unlikely).

The thing that sucks about moving down to the Bills picks is that I'm having Eric Mangini draft flashbacks even though I know these guys are more qualified to make the picks. If they drop that far, they'd better be getting Buffalo's 2018 #1 too.

I already said I would be willing to trade down from the #4 pick.  It would be even better if they traded down with the Broncos or Jets.

Absolutely not. Haven’t we learned our lesson on this? Just stay at 1 and 4, make good picks, and move on. I swear, browns fans want to get so damn cute with the draft, smh.

How is trading one or two spots down (as I mentioned) getting cute?   If you are referring to COA's scenario, I also can't 100% get down with the NO TRADE DOWN attitude. Just because the previous dumb ass front offices fucked up those picks, doesn't mean the current FO will.  You have to approach this FO with a clean slate.  The problem the last 5-6 years was not the trading down.  The problem was our idiot GMs making horrible decisions with the picks they gathered.  For example, if Farmer makes the correct picks after the trade down in the loaded 2012 draft, instead of drafting gilbert/manziel, nobody would be bitching.  I can't get down with this "we cant trade down, because our previous dumbass gms have fucked that up" attitude.  A lot of franchises have benefitted from collecting draft picks.   If the Browns were offered a first round pick (and maybe more) to move down one or two spots, you would have to be the biggest fucking idiot not to take that deal.

Agree with this, for the most part. The actual problem, in the Wentz case, was the fact that they traded down PERIOD. Sashi Brown set this new front office up very nicely with draft picks and cap room but he didn't have the sack to pull the trigger when it came time to man up, grab his QB and own it.
