    Another thing to think about, the Eagles gave up Kiko Alonso and Byron Maxwell to move from 13 to 8. Would you have done the trade if we ended up at 13 but with those two guys?

    Maxwell was a bust away from SEA and Kiko got hurt... again... so no, I would not.

    No.......the Browns in this trade with the Eagles should have made Fletcher Cox a condition of the trade, give them back their 2017 1st rounder in exchange for Cox or no deal and trade with the 49ers if they wanted to drop back.

  • I hope we've already talked to the Titans about if Tunsil falls to 8.

    I like all those second rounders they have.

  • So....Zeke?

  • Why now. The only reason I can come up with is they're going to deal some more before or during the draft.

    No idea... but I don't see a RB early in a 3-year rebuild.

    Jack could fall to us though.

    TN also apparently likes Stanley (OT)... would likely pay a 2nd to move up.

    Move back up to #22 and take Lynch.

    Just fucking do it. It would be absolutely hilarious.

    You don't think the Rams are taking Wentz?

    Only thing I "know" is that I would not. But most of the reporting I have seen seems to be saying Goff is the Rams' guy...

  • Getting that 8 pick from Miami was highway robbery for Philly for those 2 washed-up corpses. Miami is ridiculously incompetent right now - I don't think Sashi would have done a deal with Philly for 13

    Jack would be a good consolation pick. He and Zeke are the two most athletic prospects at the top of the draft IMO. I also don't see us taking an RB, none of the current models point to a runningback experiencing enough success in the first to warrant the pick comparatively. But damn it, I'm just at a loss now.

  • Is Tunsil the pick now? and does anyone think they would put big #73 on the trading block to scure more picks?

  • What if Philly moved up for elliot with the risk that Dallas was going to take him?

    That would be a very bold move. I think they may have somethign set up with the Bronco's, as in Sending Bradford to them for a 3. Who knows though! All I know is we will have a really good pick at 8 and probably a Philly top 10 next year.

    So thats:

    Eagles: #2 overall, conditional pick in 2017

    Browns: #8 overall, 3rd round pick, 4th in 2016; First round pick in 2017; 2nd round pick in 2018

    Future picks a key.....which is fine for 28-35 year old Harvard boys.....not so great for we in our 60s that want progress NOW!

  • Makes more sense

  • McShay and Kiper double teaming the board on NFL Live seeing the following:

    1. Rams - Goff
    2. Eagles - Wentz
    3. Chargers - Tunsil
    4. Cowboys - Elliot
    5. Jaguars - Ramsey
    6. Ravens - Bosa
    7. 49ers - Stanley
    8. Browns

    On the board for us:

    • Jack
    • Buckner
    • Conklin
    • Rankins

    My pick? Buckner.

    Their pick: Conklin... and I threw up in my mouth.

    Side note - Sam Bradford another option now for Denver and NYJ. Or possibly the 49ers, for the comedy value of reuniting with Chip Kelly.

    No way Denver buys into Bradford with his current ridiculous contract. Mark Sanchez has produced as much or more in his career.

    Simply not the price you pay for a RB in today's NFL...

  • In many senses, though, this IS progress -- we have many starters who are barely NFL-caliber. Although this won't fix everything, it will improve both starters and depth.
