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:

Rams - Goff
Eagles - Wentz
Chargers - Tunsil
Cowboys - Elliot
Jaguars - Ramsey
Ravens - Bosa
49ers - Stanley
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...

Unsympathetic

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.

If the Ravens take Bosa and he kills us for years it would really blow.

It's a wise move! The Browns are Rebuilding through the draft! They won't be good this year or next and need all the draft picks they can get. RG3 buys them time to develop the quarterback of choice whether they draft this year or next.

My guess is they go defense with #8 pick if Tunsil is off the board.

Given that the Rams are taking Goff, I'm all for it.

Jack or Buckner could work. I don't see Conklin being taken that high....unless they Browns trade JT. Rankins is a DT....they just invested in DT last year with Shelton. I would probably agree on Buckner....if Bosa is gone.

So....Zeke?

He could be there.

What about LaQuan Treadwell at 8? Browns need playmakers.........and folks, please still do not discount the fact that they could go for Lynch.

DieHardBrownsFan

Idiotic deal. This FO should be fired before the season starts.

The Cysko Kid

Super. We're going to end up with a lineman and the third best kicker in the draft. Go browns.

The Gipper

We now have picks

#8

#32

#65

#77

#99....draft Dak Prescott

#100....draft Cardale Jones.

#138

#141

#172

#173

#176

#223

Treadwell was the first name that popped in my head after hearing about the trade although eight feels high for him. Maybe if we trade back to 15?

I just think if we stay at eight, it would be hard to pass up on a Jack or Buckner should they fall.

This is a legit possibility.

I suspect the Tits will wanna trade up for Stanley, presuming he's available at #8. If we could get #15 and a 2nd it would be tempting, I suspect we're definitely not done wheeling and dealing yet.

Eagles fan is on board with the trade.
