The First Two Picks of the Draft...

BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE -

Absolutely.
And as of right now, for different reasons, I don't feel Sanders or Ward is worth the #2 pick.
I would love to trade down with the Giants, Raiders or Jets.

And if you DO find a trade partner, then you've found someone that DOES feel the QB is worth the #2 pick...and more, because it's gonna COST them to get up to #2. And that means one of two teams is wrong. And because one of those teams is us...I feel like I'm at the supermarket trying to decide which lane will move faster. Whichever one I choose is always wrong.

Ah, I think you should apply for Depo's job. Perfect fit to continue along the same paths as before.?

Nah, I would want the analytics play-calling book tossed into the trash. Don't be going for it on 4th down all the time. Take the FG whenever it presents itself. Put points on the board any ol' way you can. Problem is, our Kicker has turned to mush. I guess we should trade back from #2 and draft a Kicker!

Trade down and build the trenches. QB in this class would be just another to add to the never ending t-shirt of failures.

I 100% agree no to any of the top QB this year, maybe a flyer on a 5th or 6th rounder

great video.
Im in the trade down camp. Deion can either help us or hurt us they pointed out.
If Multiple teams are involved we will get a first round pick next year.
Giants #3, 1st Next Year, 3rd this year. We take Carter.
Raiders #6, 1st next year, 2 this year, 3rd next year. Probably have Banks available.
and I don’t think Sanders keeps either team out of the Top next year. So you have two top ten picks next year enough bullets to get your QB in 2026

Can’t keep trotting out every Sunday with no QB worth anything.
Jayden Daniels had his detractors, Bo Nix certainly did. They’ve turned out okay.
The Browns will have to take a shot on Ward or Sanders whoever is there at #2 I don’t see them doing anything else. This is Berry and Stefanski’s last shot they’re not going to draft linemen, they have to find a QB that keeps them in a job.

Which is a reason I kind of didn't want them back. Specifically Berry.
This team needs rebuilt. I'm not talking a complete to the studs tear-down, not another 1-31 stretch, but this is the second oldest team with a huge payroll. They lost six 1st and 2nd day picks the last three drafts.
But the guys in charge are fighting for their jobs - so they might make decisions that long-term aren't the best for the Browns in a Hail Mary attempt to stay employed beyond next season.

If you bring in new people they are 100% going to want their own shiny new QB. (well, 100% is kinda' high...more like 99.999 %)

You still haven't told me why you think Cam Ward is worth the #2 overall pick, besides "Well we have the #2 pick and he's the #2 QB and we may never have the #2 pick again".

Thats where I am at really because the potential reward outweighs the risk.
To hit on a stud OT or DE at that pick means nothing without a QB. The draft is very hard to predict anyway so I’d take the risk on the QB

I cannot wrap my head around this thinking.
I don't understand passing on a higher rated position player for a roll of the dice on a QB who most scouts will probably rank in the #20-40 overall player range. And then, to compound the questionable reach (and so there is no confusion, I don't hate Cam Ward's game) you know he'll be thrown out on the field immediately.
But I could totally see the Browns doing this.

Because he's the best QB in the draft. I like the way he can sling the ball from just about any ol' position. Does he step into and through his throws beautifully? Not right now. But how many times is a QB not afforded the ability to step through the throw because pressure is coming in front of him?
Are the QB's the best talent on the board? Usually not. But QB's are graded on a curve because your football team is completely screwed if ya don't have one. The LT, Edge rusher, CB, whatever is not gonna throw and TD passes for ya.

You are understating the risk. 2025 the QB sits, plays some mop up at the end on a below average team. 2026 the QB gets his shot.
If you are wrong - you have a QB to pick in 2027 and rinse repeat the cycle above.If Cam Ward is a marginal talent at the next level best case scenario we find a great QB in 2027 or get a guy to develop and be decent by 2028. But we’ve wasted two premium picks in the process

Add in the 3 1st rounders already given up and make it 5 wasted premium picks. New math.?

I don't think Berry has the luxury to trade down. The window for this roster is ending after next season. If they do not make the playoffs, then Haslam is going to fire everyone.

As much as that makes sense now - what is he waiting for on some of that? He fired GM John Dorsey when Depodesta wanted more analytics than film study after Dorsey ripped the analytic notebook apart as soon as Depodesta handed it to him. That's probably the best "Walk-off Fock-Q" here in quite some time. On the other hand, when Haslam fired the GM for that - it set the tone for all the hand selected "Yes sir" stuff to follow from the HC and GM hired in 2020. That also increased Depodesta's rank and tenure.
It's looking like I was the only Dumb Ass on this board and maybe even this planet - that thought we'd eventually see why Watson made 3 Pro Bowls in the 3 years he suited up the 4 years he was employed by Houston. That said, I don't own the team with the "Yes Sir" environment I just spoke about.
Sometimes we try to have some fun in here and we put together mock drafts and stuff - we do it looking at stats and brief videos of best moments of prospects coming out of college. We also look at things like Senior Bowl practices, combine results and measurements, etc. It's an imperfect science enjoyed by a lot of us that need our day jobs. If a FO just looked at numbers, stats and body frames at the expense of due diligence in the film room - they're gonna hand an Andy Reid a gem of LB like Mizzou's Nick Bolton in round 2. When Andy Reid was asked if he was surprised about Bolton's forced turnover he also returned for a TD in his 1st post season - Reid replied, "why should I be surprised? He was he best tackler in the draft!"
IMO, Depodesta is the control freak sinking this ship. Problem is? He seems to be the only guy that has Jimmy's absolute trust and confidence. The longer it lasts, the more we're getting back to that "you don't want to go play for Cleveland" reputation in spite of two 11 win seasons in the last 5 years.

I didn't like the trade but I too was optimistic it would work out. Last year buried that thought.
