Kizer overrated

Keiser Soze not overrated.

I might go for Myles Garrett and Jabril Peppers.
I will take Woody's word that Peppers is for real. He could be the next Thom Darden.

I was for Watson when doing my own trivial scouting for this year's draft, but he wasn't out. If he grows at an expected level then yeah, he probably will be, and then some small school guy with prototypical size will turn up in january and who knows.

OK, how about this scenario:
The Browns with their own pick and the Eagles pick actually get the #1 and the #2 overall picks in the draft!!!
FYI, it has actually happened 3 times in history that the same team had #1 and #2:
1992 The Colts picked Steve Emtman #1 and Quentin Coryatt #2 in the draft
1966 AFL draft: The Dolphins took Jim Grabowski and Rick Norton 1-2
1958 The Chicago Cardinals select QB King Hill #1 overall and then RB John David Crow #2 overall.
OK, for shits and giggles, if this happens what would you want to see:
Cleveland Browns 2017 take:
#1:
#2:
Insert your choices.

That is one scaringly pathetic track record.

1. Myles Garrett if the Browns commit to running mostly 4-3 (and it appears that may be happening judging by the pickups of late).
2. Best QB available or RB Leonard Fornette if RG III is playing really well.
Garrett and Fornette are both once every 5 years or so players.

Fournette may not be the best RB in college this season. A lot of people think Chubb of Ga. or Cook of FSU may prove better.

True. Jim Grabowski became at best a serviceable Fullback. Only Crow had a decent career. Hill pretty much a career backup. Emtman good for a very short period before done in by knee injuries. Coryatt? Pretty much a bust. Only 8.5 career sacks for a OLB.

I really like luke falk this year but i've been hearing good things about mason Rudolph

I need Rudolph back in Stillwater next year.

I wouldn't hate this but even Fornette would need an o-line to function.

Les Miles's O does not impress me as one that takes full advantage of Fornette. I do like Chubb though. Tough runner if he says healthy this year. Not sure Cook shows the balance of the other two.

Les has a horrid QB and so teams are just going to load up the box to stop Fornette all year.

i thought we resigned colquiff?
can't he throw too?
pays .50 off the dollar. nice analytics move. we won't have to worry about QB for another gazzilion years.

My tentative top 5 doesn't differ too much from that of the main talking heads - I'd go Watson, Kelly, Kizer, Mayfield, Rudolph. I think Kelly and Watson are the only two worth their salt in this year's draft so far, but I also do like Kizer as a fringe guy.
I like Rudolph's size, but that's really it.
I think Falk is a good QB but I don't see any transferrable skills - he throws a ton of floaters to his first and second reads and that's it.
I'm taking a principled stand against Rosen because he's a douchewallet, and I think Kaaya is absolutely awful.
Webb is interesting because of his size and arm talent, he could rapidly climb boards if he excels in the Bear Raid.
Then, the homer in me has to always pull for Barrett, obviously. Surprisingly, I'm woefully behind on small school/ under the radar guys. I haven't been paying attention, to be honest.

The top 2 rated defensive players. Then trade back into the 1st and get the best available defensive player thenumber.

Well, that might be Garrett and Peppers, no?
Peppers overrated? (lets see Woody gnash his teeth at that suggestion)

Seems like this has been the case in Baton Rouge forever... certainly since the JaMarcus phenom years.
Before Russell have to go back to Bert Jones???

A few of Kizer's throws made me take note of him.
I'm not even sure I like Watson as a franchise player. To me, every year we attempt to say 'here is the franchise QB pick'. When in reality none exist.
I am keeping an eye on Myles from A&M. Love his first step, not in love with his inability to shed blocks. Also, whoever 93 was for Alabama vs USC. I'll be watching him throughout the season as well.
BAMA 93 is a Senior named Jonathan Allen. Very much looks the part of a 3-4 DE.
Myles Garrett physically looks like a different player this year. Thought he still looked like a rail last season. Now? Listed at 270 and looks it. Best of all he doesn't seem to have lost a step.
Just realized I did not notice TAMU's #5, Daylon Mack, vs. USC. Last year you could not help but notice him.
Watson looked decent, but not special. But it's Week 1 so...

Allen is a machine. USC's OL was vaunted as the best in the country last week. Herbstreit singled out a play (one of many) where the front 4 collapsed the pocket in under 2 seconds with bull rushes across the board, with Allen leading the way. It's a work of art.
Mack is out of shape and inconsistent.
Auburn's defense is going to be very good and I believe Clemson was breaking in all new O linemen, so don't put all the blame on Watson.

And if RG III flops? It's quarterback. PERIOD. End of discussion. Anyone who thinks Kessler resembles an NFL quarterback at this point must have been hitting the Kessler heavy.
