The 2026 NFL DRAFT QB derby watch!
-
That wouldn't surprise me. This is Simpson's 4th year at Bama; but only his 1st year as a starter. There would definitely be advantages for him to stay there with the familiarity of playbook, coaching staff, surrounding talent/teammates/friends and stuff to build on. Like you said - he'll get an attractive NIL to do so. The alternative - chaos on the Browns or Jets with unacceptable pass protection. 2 teams that haven't understood the QB is the most important investment unless they just didn't understand it is important to nurture and protect their important investment.
Arch made 6.8M this year in NIL money. Carson Beck 4.3M
Drake Maye made around 6.7M his rookie year as the 4th overall pick.It is no longer a slam dunk to enter the draft if the potential for NIL money is big especially your QBs
Carson Beck made more STAYING in college than going pro. Spends a year in South Beach. If he’s thinking ahead gets a free year of courses to transition into something bigger after his short NFL career. His decision to stay probably took three seconds.
I don’t see Arvell Reese a LB making close to QB NIL money so he’s gone and hopefully he doesn’t become a Bengal/Raven/Steeler

Precisely - thanks SdB! Carson Beck showed us he can still throw multiple INTs in 1 game regardless of the different uniform. Speaking of which - OUCH! Ty Simpson just threw a pick-6.
-
Add Simpson to that list. Was already put off from the lack of starts and some questionable throws.
Pick six and another bad int against a good defense today.

Looks like Nico is making a business decision tonight

He needs to go back to school and he needs to transfer
? Other than that - things couldn't be any better...

So I'm pretty much on the "Get Mendoza if you can but if not invest heavily on the offense this upcoming off-season" train.
As much as I like Ty Simpson, he should go back to school. If he comes out, I can't get behind using a high pick on a QB with roughly 15 or so college starts.
I want the Browns to take two starting caliber OLinemen in the upcoming draft. When I say starting caliber, I mean guys who can start sooner than later. Not developmental guys. (Unless they want to take a third guy later) I also agree with @sdbacker80, the Browns need to bring in through trade or free agency a starting vet for the OLine next season. Bitonio one would think is retiring after the season, I would offer Teller a three year extension for continuity. He's still playing well.
Do the same with the Wide Receivers. Hypothetically, adding Ohio State's Carnell Tate early and say Texas A&Ms KC Concepcion a few rounds later would help the offense get more dynamic.
If you can't get Mendoza, you could at least load up on offense on the line and in the WR room so the guy you do get in 2027 isn't coming into a bad situation.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. Heading into this season, I figured it would be his last as a Brown.
I do my best to be objective, but I think he enjoys being on the Browns and has embraced Cleveland much like Joel Bitonio and Joe Thomas have. I want guys that want to play for the Browns.

So Arch Manning has struggled in some games, but not this latest game.
wow.

He's tanking to avoid the Browns.?
Yeah, the Browns and Jets are scaring all the top QB prospects back to college next year.

I wouldn’t want to go to either team. Plus, the money they made in college is pretty good

I'm hoping this is a plus that comes out of NIL in college - and it appears it is - that QBs stay in college for an additional season more consistently now.

Some of them are getting middle and bottom of the first round money. Carson Beck 4.6M.
with the way college programs are throwing out coaches buyout money it is just going to get more lucrative.

Didn't the TCUN give Underwood a shitload of money just to commit?

If we aren’t on a QB. Picks 1/1/2 should be OL,WR,OL. I’d dangle the 3rd round pick for a veteran Olineman and then I absolutely agree on Teller we need him back. If you can trade back and secure some ammo for next years QB draft class all the better.
you can’t have 60 percent of your line having never played an NFL snap.
You need a QB for 26. Who and what no clue.
edit: don’t laugh 26 QB Watson with a new play caller -

I see 3M EACH year just from TCUN and that doesn’t account for deals outside of the university.

And how about when 1 Harbaugh brother in Baltimore saved another Harbaugh brother with Defensive Coaches from the Ratbird scheme. Before that Jim Harbaugh was O for Urban Meyer. After that, Mike MacDonald was hired off Baltimore's staff onto Jim's Staff as DC in Ann Arbor. Once he was hired as a HC in the NFL, it was Jesse Minter's turn to get hired as the DC at TCUN. After he went with Jim Harbaugh to be DC of the Chargers - Ratbird Defensive Asst - Don "Wink" Martindale was hired as DC. Who's the farm club here - the Ratbirds or TCUN? That's a pretty complicated scheme that took NFL teams a while to crack. It was actually developed by Martindale but MacDonald and Minter seemed to use it more efficiently.
I don't think this is against any rules - but TCUN likes to challenge the boundaries with only wrist slaps and unofficial asterisks for cheating...

Browns current first round picks are #6 and 22.

Problem is... Good Lineman are a premium in the NFL.. Teams rarely part or trade away good ones..
