Would you take Dorial Green-Beckham in the 2nd round?

    DGB would be nice to have and with Bowe, Hartline, HAWK, Gabriel and Benjamin there wouldn't be an immediate need to start off as the number 1 but to develop into that over time. And when Gordon comes back next year to line up opposite DGB it would be downright scary. It all depends on the evaluation that Farmer has done on him, whether or not he believes that the past is in the past.

    I understand that his resume is nearly identical to that of Josh Gordon. Kicked out of one school for dope. Transferred to another but didn't play there because of positive tests.

    I don't think the Browns FO wants to see the movie "Up in Smoke, Part Deux"

    I think the question shouldn't be whether you take him in the 2nd, but would you take him if he was there in the 3rd round.

    In the 3rd? Still a no here...

    Maybe Day 3...

    I think we learned our lesson with Puff Gordon. This front office is not going to take a chance that the guy turns out the same way. No chance we pick him.

    Denver or Seattle will draft him because half the risk is legal there.

    I would take him in the third. Being risk averse and drafting for character is a solid plan that I agree with. However, at some point, the reward far outweighs the risk. A top ten talent in the third is where I think the scales tip in DGB's favor.

    If he flames out and never plays a single down in the NFL, it's not a huge whiff. If he even achieves half of his potential, he's a legitimate #2 receiver. And if he straightens out and becomes what he could be....that's the steal of a century.

    Not in the NFL. Doesn't matter if it's legal in the state.

    I would most definitely take him in the third round.

    But I'm also the guy who's down to take a chance on Randy Gregory in the 2nd round.

    All true, but what gives me the additional pause is a work ethic question.

    Would he ever "Play like a Brown"? Full effort, every play for an entire game? Or would he be an "I play when I wanna play" kinda guy?

    95% the latter - 5% the former.

    We told ya. Was not even remotely a fit for the Browns.

    Now you can sing the "I'm so sorry" song.
