I don't think They will have to trade up to get Manziel..hell be there.But youll have those that would draft a tackle or guard.

I think Id have a personal rule that in the first round you always take the best QB,WR,or RB...

Adrian Peterson.....Joe Thomas? Not that Joe isn't great...AP is a game changer

really? sure talk about AP compared to joe thomas, not a fair comparison. JT has been a consensus probowler since his rookie year.

show me the other QBs, WRs and RBs since he's been drafted that you can say that about in that same draft class and later?

Hey everybody, first post here in a long time. I used to post as K2 probably 5-6 years ago when the site was under the old system. When the site changed to what it currently is I never got around to re-registering. I've been lurking in the shadows since just never had anything to say.

I don't want to see the Browns take Manziel at 4. It's a reach to take him there. Trading up from the Indy pick wouldn't be the end of the world though. I'm pretty firmly in the Watkins boat but there are other WRs I like in the draft that could be there with the Indy pick. Cooks from Oregon St, Mathews from Vandy or Allen Robinson from PSU could be there. They could also get snatched up between 13-23 and were stuck. In the fanspeak mock draft I've been able to get Watkins and Carr in the first round. Not sure how likely that is.

Trading the entire draft for Watkins, Manziel and Hyde is ridiculous though. We will be able to draft Watkins and Hyde with the picks we already have. The only one we would need to trade up for is Manziel. He is not worth 8 picks. The ability to draft a Mosley, Skov, or Borland at ILB or a Cyril Richardson at G. An Abbrederis or Gallon at slot, A Morgan Moses at Tackle, A Justin Gilbert type CB or an Aaron Lynch late is too great. It's not ridiculous to see us draft 5 starters in this draft.

I don't like trading up in this draft but if Bridgewater or Clowney is sitting there at 4 they would be hard to pass up.

I don't see the long term solution at QB in this years draft. Sorry I don't. I don't even know who our fucking HC is right now and what kind of offense we're going to be running. And fuck, now that we're interviewing 4-3 defensive coordinators, do we need to draft a DE? The best DE prospect in years, possibly even decades is out there this year.

Ah so you want to play for next years draft eh? There are some good QBs in this draft, there is no Andrew Luck but how many drafts have an Andrew Luck. Thi is going to boil down to how the Browns FO grades out the QB position. If they believe they are all about equal then I dont see a trade down. However, if they think there are one or two guys in this QB class that stand above the rest then a trade up must be down. BTW I believe we stick with the 3-4 after signing Bryant and Kruger to big deals, especially Kruger who is not a 4-3 LB.

We will Draft a QB this year just not hopefully in the Top 5.

Yeah so lets let all the best QBs get drafted and then draft a QB later on and hope he sucks less than Weeden.

We picked joe Thomas over Adrian Peterson...I couldn't stand to pick a lineman and then watch Manziel light it up somewhere else.

If you aint got a QB who cares about linemen

Lmfao...u really think ap is the household name he is now if the Browns drafted him. If so he wouldn't still b here. Use your fucking head dude. I

The more I see of Odell Beckham the more I like his catch and run ability. The guy can catch freakishly well.

What are the chances of teams that have their QB trading up to get Watkins? Steelers, Titans, etc..

More chances of them going after clowney or Matthews, but I guess it's possible.

or clowney?

someone might make the brown's infamous trade a pick to move up one slot to get him.

no way would i trade with the steelers unless they give a up a similiar price that washington paid for RG3. the titans i would consider because they are not in our division.

One mock has us getting Manziel at 4 and Beckham at 26. I would be happy with that. Beckham, Jordon and Gordon show me a d that could stop that.

For some reason I get the feeling that the steelers want Mike Evans.

i believe if clowney and/or mathews are available at the 4th pick; the browns may receive a few calls about trading down.

depending on what we get and how far we would have to drop, i wouldnt be against it.

but theres was a Dwayne Bowe and a couple other wr that have been in probowls that year.I just think when you need help in skilled positions you take skilled positions. Your more likely to pick up an adequate lineman in FA than an Adrian P or a first round caliber player. That's all
