    remember, this time last year Goff/Wentz were touted as maybe second rounders

    You're the only one who remembers that.

    https://www.profootballfocus.com/why-jared-goff-is-the-best-qb-prospect-in-the-country/

    Note this article from last October stating Goff is expected to go #1

    http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2015/10/27/jared-goff-nfl-draft-2016-top-quarterback-qb-prospect

    Or this 55 week old article which posits that Goff could be chosen #5 overall.

    http://www.mercurynews.com/2015/11/05/49ers-qb-of-the-future-could-be-cals-jared-goff/

    Well what do ya know?! Here's an article from may of 2015 touting Goff as the top QB prospect entering the draft....

    http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/2469137-meet-jared-goff-the-2016-nfl-drafts-top-qb-heading-into-next-season#

    A ten minute google search proves you're objectively wrong about expectations for Jared Goff in 2015. I'm sure there are plenty of very "reputable" articles that you remember to support your idea that Goff was a 2nd rounder a year ago.

    The problem is that, oddly enough, those articles aren't the ones showing up. I'm sure it's my fault, maybe I should use a more trust worthy search engine like Ask Jeeves.

    Again....all articles were basically post or late season. Preseason, it was other people.

    Switzer is New England bound, BB loves him some white receivers.

    or denver.

    Regarding Mitch he did not do anything to hurt his draft stock but his performance did not particularly help it either. Going by the numbers nearly 300 yds passing and 3 TD with 50 some yards rushing he had another good game. but he did have some rare accuracy issues and seemed flustered in the 1st half. actually the whole team looked a bit un-prepared. Totally agree it WAS like watching the browns!

    A lot of those "accuracy issues" involved the fact that he had 6 drops of his passes by his receivers. Had those been connected his completion percentage would have been much better. Was he perfectly 100% accurate? No.

    I didn't like a lot of the play calling that team made. But his performance was definitely worthy.

    And yea....bad defense, bad O-Line. He fits in perfect here.

  • He's not the answer! Besides, this could all be a moot point if we draft Myles Garret. San Fransisco will draft Trubisky. I think Garret and Jaime Collins would be a start in actually having a defense.

    If he is not the answer, then the answer will not come to the Browns for another 10 years.

    He is as good an answer as we will will have had since the Browns drafted Bernie Kosar in the supplemental draft.

  • I dunno i think you only go defense over qb in our situation if charles woodson is in the draft and I'm not seeing anyone of that talent here.

    Charles Woodson? He wasn't the best CB the year he came out.

    Antoine Winfield was a better pure corner. Woodson could probably float between safety and corner.

    But, no....this morning Tony Grossi basically said that the one thing that would put this team on the road to respectability is a QB. Of course there are other holes that need desperately filled......trenches and DB. But QB is primary.

    If there is not franchise QB to be had, then yes, you go defense.....but I believe there is a franchise QB to be had.

    At the gym but I got a text from a friend that UNC is down 21-0. If you want to give solid input, I'd suggest flipping on the game now.

    Watched most of it...

    ... and the second.

    One game does not an assessment make, but I saw no #1 overall worthy QB today.

    Positives included fairly short, quick release, more than adequate arm strength and quick feet.

    Attributes MIA included restricted reads, pocket presence, TOR, and accuracy.

    More work to do, but not enough seen for a QB who runs a lot of read option and gets his play adjustments from the sideline.

    On the bright side I was reintroduced to Bradley Chubb, NS State DE... had not seen him since last season. Nice looking 4-3 DE prospect.

    I think you are dead wrong on both the pocket presence and the accuracy. As Hoorta said...he stood in there and many many on the button throws while defenders were in his face. As for accuracy...no, he wasn't 1000 percent perfect....but I saw only two throws that were not throwaways that were off target...and one of those was by a cunt hair.

    As for restricted reads...I think that is a scheme/coaching matter. And I don't know what you mean by TOR.

    More work to do, but not enough seen for a QB who runs a lot of read option and gets his play adjustments from the sideline.

    Sure, more work to do....but read option and getting adjustment from the sidelines is the way 99.4% of college offenses are run now. I don't like it much...but it is what it is.

    On the bright side I was reintroduced to Bradley Chubb, NS State DE... had not seen him since last season. Nice looking 4-3 DE prospect.

    What round do you see him going?

  • I think the choice is pretty obviously Trubisky as of right now nobody else should really be considered

    Just Ask Gipper. All the results will be just as he says.

    And my recollection was correct: See this article where Goff was ranked no higher than #7 and Wentz wasn't even in the Top 25:

    http://www.sportsonearth.com/article/133373274/college-football-2015-quarterback-rankings

    Three Buckeye QBs were rated higher.

    And here: SI....Goff a second rounder:

    I didn't make this up. Anyone that disagrees with me can look in the mirror and say to themselves: I am a dickwad.

    LOL!

    Also in regards to my post i mean as far as college QBs go i think mitch is nearly undisputed the top QB available in 2017. Doesn't mean we wont take allen or Garrett but i think i would prefer Allen tbh

    I still think we will take mitch because the need is so great to stabilise our QB spot but you never know they may decide to wait for lamar

  • I'd take mitch second round

    If they wait for a 6'2 undersized college running QB, then they deserve to get fired.

    You must not have taken into account that he says he wants to play here. That bumps him up a round.

    I was definitely being sarcastic. I know that there will be a few here who go insane over Trubisky because he said he wanted to play here.

  • Just watched him vs Pitt. Very impressive. When you watch the film, you can see the Tar Heels' o-line is possibly worse than the Browns'. If he had time, he could be deadly.

    More to watch...

  • Against Duke, he had better protection in the first half and it showed. He was solid and deadly. In the second half, Duke brought pressure and the UNC o-line got exposed. Trubisky fell apart and looked very shaky all the way until he threw the game losing INT.

    More to go...

  • Came out "on fire" against Florida State. Knew he had to get rid of the ball quickly, and did with great success. Almost perfect in the first half, then had a few bad plays holding onto it too long in the 2nd half; however, he did lead 2 4th quarter drives to get the "W".

    Overall so far, plays great despite a weak line. Impressive arm strength, anticipates well, and is quick to get the ball out. He also has good wheels and isn't afraid to tuck and run. He can be a little over-aggressive at times, and loses his accuracy occasionally. Stats may be inflated due to all the screen passes they throw.

    More to go...
