Who WOULD you like to see them take?

The more I read, the more it seems like Mariota being their favorite is not a smokescreen.
Some facts contributing to this:
- Mariota is Kevin O'Connell, version 2.0. They have very similar measurements, very similar playing styles and had very similar results in college (granted, Mariota did it on a much larger scale).
- Mariota was working with Kevin O' Connell.
- Haslam was in love with Chip Kelly. The next best thing is getting an Oregon QB.
- We're stupid.
- Flip is credited with developing Derek Carr, another prototypical sized QB with all of the tools but questions about his offensive system.
- Jimmy Haslam.
- The supposed "pre-combine draft board leak".
- We're stupid.
However, if that's the guy they have #1 at the top of their board...you do what you can to take him. Whatever it takes. If that's the guy you've pegged as your franchise savior, you go get him and sink or swim with him.
-
if they went up to get mariota i wouldn't hate it. sure he's not built like winston but he's sure as hell a lot smarter than he is.
IMO throwing 3 picks out the window for one pick doesn't make sense unless it's the final piece of the puzzle needed to put you over the top.
the browns aren't there yet.

If there going to go up to get a QB id rather it be Mariotta then Winston.(i myself think its to steep price for either honestly.
Why i tend think Winston is more pro ready year 1 the reason id go Mariotta over him is simple he does not have the off field issues of Winston!!!! People talk bout Manziels off field problems well Winston was accused sexual assault, stealing crab legs i do not think id want that on my team.
I like the idea staying put in draft trying to trade for a glennon or a bradford if he is cut also sorta like the tennesee qb if they draft 1

When has that ever applied to QB? I understand the argument about the QB not being the first piece, but now he has to be the last?
Nah... if MM is legitimately seen by our FO as "the one", and not merely "the best one within our reach in the draft this year", then go get him...

i'm just saying the skilled position players on offense should be considering AFTER the lines are built, the defense is set. sure take the QB when that's done. it's not like russell wilson went into seattle like couch came into cleveland or bradford into st. louis or.........how many examples do you need?
the worse way to build a team is drafting a QB as the FIRST priority. i know the browns are not starting from scratch but the throwing the 3 draft picks out the window for the 1 argument still holds true IMO.

Though it may be irrelevant now - I'd like to know how they viewed Manziel. If he was 'the one' to them, which would make sense considering they traded back up to get him.... Then you'd hope those familiar feelings would creep up and they'd stay the hell away.

If JM was the one, then we'd have taken him at 4 or 8...

*************************************Great question ! Will we get an answer?? -
If either OTs Peat or Collins are still there after the first 11, I would surely be tempted. Especially if DT's Shelton and Brown are already off the board. Just can't pass on that kind of talent.

Grossi's first Mock :
http://espncleveland.com/common/more.php?m=49&action=blog&r=17&post_id=42501
#1 - Winston
#2 - Mariota
#12 - WR DeVante Parker, Louisville
#19 - DT Malcom Brown, Texas
With TB saying Glennon is going to be their Starter/Franchise QB . . . I'm wondering if they take DT Williams instead.
WR @12?
I'm not sure I'm feeling it yet . . . maybe @19 . . . need to see Combine numbers to get some performance numbers.
-
The more I watch the wide receivers, the less I'm impressed with them.
-
i like the fact that i see someone wearing a browns jacket on the field looking at the OL prospects. looks like moeller our OL coach.

Marpet runs the best 40, 10/20 yard splits of the Oline thus far.
He's athletic and can move, no doubt about that.

Jake Fisher looked really good in that first group. Expected that...

Peat... definitely. Collins.... no way. Only other O-line that would tempt me at #12 would be Clemmings, and I think I could resist.

I'm really hoping for Clemmings falling to us @19, but with his measurements (loooong arms, large hands), I'm almost certain that won't be the case.
Hey Tour2ma, question: why yes to Peat and no to Collins? Peat hasn't really impressed me this year.
