Camp Trade Down
-
It could just be due diligence. Making sure you see what is out there to cover your bases.

Adam Schefter & MKC are tweeting that the Browns are currently in trade down talks with one team.

I doubt that they have limited their talks to just one team.

I'm not sure if shopping around the #2 pick is some clear-cut sign they don't want to draft a QB like people are saying it is. I think it's due diligence to look at all your options even if you are 99.9% sure of the direction you are going.
I just get this God awful gut feeling we'll trade back, take X player instead of Goff or Wentz, watch RG3 explode 5 games into the season (let's make it fun, I'll go with torn biceps), and cry into our beers as both those guys wind up as franchise talents.

Seeing what the market is within the top 8... is VERY different than "accepting an offer". Clearly they want to get a full picture of what's available before making the decision to accept or not.
This is the same as being on Shark Tank and wanting to hear all the offers before countering any one of them. Doesn't mean you don't want the first one.. it just means you want to hear everything.
It's something that a competent FO would do. I realize we reflexively see every Browns FO action as "How Much Does This New Thing Suck" ... but they actually have good ideas this time.

Being reported Eagles had a deal to go to number 3 before the Rams/Titans trade to take the QB Cleveland passed on .....the mega trade fucked up their plans

Agree, but rumor has it that they cast a line for all teams picking in the top 10 waiting for a bite.I doubt that they have limited their talks to just one team.
All it takes is one sucker.

Schefter had actual glee in his voice when he announced on NFL Live today that we were not close to a trade.
Bit of a rivalry there with LaCanfora I'd say...

But it's better to have two...
Word is there is interest from SF and Philly.... even the Jets at 20. Both Philly and NYJ have eyes for Wentz. SF supposedly more for Goff.

Jets moving from 20 to 2 will cost them big .....What would be the minimum you would accept for this to happen ?

I want the highest and the most.

And is that why they may be in the mix to trade with us?

Report: Potential Trade Between #Browns & #Eagles Expected To Include 1st & 3rd-Rd Picks In 2016 & 2017 If Completed
So Eagles 1st and 3rd this year and next.....thoughts ?
That Twitter account is garbage.
But no, I wouldn't take that. I'd want a first and second this year at the very least, along with a first next year.
If Wentz is gone and we can move back, still pick before 10 and pick up an extra second, we'd be able to likely come away with a very good LB, a very good WR and/or a very good DL without first three picks.
I wouldn't hate moving back to #7, getting SF's second, then getting, say, Jack, Nkemdiche and Smith.
Or, if injury worries you, getting Buckner, Spence, and Boyd.
And, of course, that opens the door to getting Lynch at #32. Not my first choice for QB, but I'd rather Lynch at #32 than Goff at #2.

Supposedly Muhammad Wilkerson is in the mix... What's the value of 12 sack, 3-4 DE just entering his prime having missed only 5 games in 5 years to us? Certainly a first... and change...
Two problems:
- he has not yet signed his franchise tender and cannot be traded until he does; and
- He ended 2015 with a broken leg... should be fine, but you never know.
Swap ones for MW plus a 2 this year and a 1next year? Good deal for us...

Tim- the problem is that the Eagles do not have a 2nd rounder anymore to give us. Already traded away.

Right. That's why I'd rather see about working something out with a team like SF instead.

Take that and don't look back
Jets: 2016#2
Browns: MW, 2016 Jets rd1, 2016 Jets rd2, 2017 Jets rd1
Take it, take it, take it.. Wilkerson next to Shelton and Bryant is legit at all 3 DL positions for the first time since the Browns reconstituted..

Not happening. Not even close. They'd get our 1st and second this year at least, we'd get their's and MW.
