Shedeur Sanders

Because of the low intensity celebration in the Browns war room after the Sanders pick, people are saying that Haslem made them do it.

I don't doubt it one bit. I'm amazed that they haven't drafted an offensive lineman.

Cameron Williams, OT, was drafted by the Texans with the 207th pick. Amazing.

@144 he was definately worth a flyer ...he could turn out to be great ...if he sucks or is a cancer..no biggie.

Yes. That's unfortunate. UFA's will be coming in soon enough.

Yeah, but it took the rest of our draft picks to get there.

We didn't come away empty handed.... I really like the Judkins and Fanin picks... I think that alone helps our offense... You resign Chubb at a respectable deal.. Give him the opportunity to come back slow... Work these other kids in while phasing out Ford and Strong... They suck...

I’m a little surprised

Good reason to dance after watching 143 get picked before him.

I wonder if daddy was dancing.

I bet you want Dion to be your daddy

Sounds about right

Seems odd to take 2 QBs and if we're all in Sanders corner now, why did we chance him dropping if we liked him so much?

Meanwhile we're still hoping for a qb from next years class.

I liked this draft all except for the double qb picks.

I'll say it again, Shedeur is taking a massive pay cut moving from the Buffalos to the Browns

I don't know how it's going to shake out at RB. I think Ford is probably safe-ish. Pierre Strong is history. I don't know how many RB's they'll carry.

First off, this screams Haslam forcing the pick. If you read between the lines of Berry at the press conference and the shot of them in the war room- doesn’t seem like a united front.

to be honest though, I’ve half jokingly / half seriously said the Browns should load up on QB and just let them totally duke it out for top billing. If you consider Flacco to be the vet backup on the roster, why not let three hungry dudes battle at see who rises to the top? We’ve tried literally every other way at this point, so I don’t hate it.

I noticed pretty low intensity after most of the picks. This was a no brainer in round 5

I didn’t think we would take him at 33 or 36 because we passed on him essentially at 2 and 5. But maybe we’re lukewarm about him enough that once needs were fulfilled (well some of them) we took a shot at the end of our draft. This might be wishful thinking.

The other side of it maybe Andrew Berry wanted to pass on this 2025 QB class. You still need a developmental guy even with Pickett who is on his third team. Bring in a guy with intangibles and experience that can maybe overcome physical limitations. But I think Haslem wanted Shedur and the compromise with coaches and GM was make him compete and see what he has - if Shedur doesn’t rise it’s…see we told you.

There is a fine line between arrogance and confidence some of the best leaders can get fooled. If it is Arrogance with Shedur he will get left behind.

Yes it does scream Haslem meddling...but Haslem was in that shot in the war room and he didn't look overjoyed either. I might have thought he'd have a big ol' grin on if it was his call. DePo didn't look pouty or anything though. Still, it screams Haslem.

I thought they were more animated on earlier picks. And yes, it's a no brainer in round 5, but remember, we had to give up the rest of our draft capitol to move up in round 5, ahead of the Eagles, to get him. (it took our 5th and 6th round picks, essentially costing us whomever we would've drafted in round 6)
