    Latest rumors have us moving to 9 ......trading with the Giants ..... how much would we have to give up to move 3 spots in the draft...imagine if its the 19 we are giving up and are trying for 2 picks in top 12 🙂

    When you have more needs, you need more picks. That's why WSH would deal their #5.

    Exactly. I don't foresee them being one defensive franchise player away from winning the East. But two to four solid starters could easily make a difference.

    Well luckily the Browns are all set except for one long shot rookie gimmick system quarterback...

    So we can flush as many draft picks down the crapper as we like.

    I'd say that we are all set except for one humble, hardworking, crazy talented franchise quarterback away.

    Two sides of the same coin?

    Well then he'd certainly be worth a Mike Ditka deal. If he's not, Mike Ditka will have company in the Goat Hall of Fame.

    Luckily by tomorrow morning all the phony rumor stories about the Browns planning a deal to trade their first round picks with everyone from Manchester United to the Montreal Canadiens will be over.

    Well, I promised myself I wouldn't touch alcohol until my birthday. If things go south tonight, that's going right out of the window awfully fucking fast.

    Took our 5th rounder to go from 9 to 8 last year, but a third to go from 26 to 22

    Who knows. . .

    Without looking at the chart - 3rd, maybe 4th rounder.

    That wouldn't bother me so much. If we trade up to 9, nab Mariota without surrendering 19. I still don't think he'll be more than a slightly above average QB (which I think Petty can be with just as much time on the bench) but I wouldn't be quite as pissed. Then at 19 you can take best available DL/WR. In the 2nd round you can address OLB and OG in the 3rd.

    12 to 9 difference is only 150 points... basically a mid-3rd or two 4ths.

    yep....pretty sure we used only a 5th to move up the 1 spot(from #9 to #8).....last year....

    Depending on where we're looking to move up to(ad for whom)....Id think there is a good chance of trading #19 and other picks to get inside the top 10, while still maintaining #12 AND next years 1st.....

    Make it work Farmer....

    If you compare tape of Manziel and Mariota they are too similar to trade picks to draft another spread QB. Think about the players we give up to go get Mariota. Shelton, Brown, Armstead, Peat, Parker, Collins. Guys that you plug in and play immediately that make a difference. We need to stop the run. We need depth on the O-line. Are the Browns going to throw it all away for another quarterback? I do believe they might but pray they don't.

    Sorry, but I don't see a similarity issue.

    Sure, I agree... two #1s is steeper than I'd like to pay, but of your list only Shelton gives me pause... and it doesn't even matter to which Collins you are referring.

    It's clearly Todd.
