    Crap. I just posted about maybe a different position, specifically Jamal Adams,

    etc, might be a more dramatic addition...

    but Garrett fits the profile, is five star elite, and you have to love his attitude.

    Could be the most well-populated camp in years on our board. I'm in, we can trade up

    from 12 to get Adams...maybe.

    and, truth is, Garrett has a fine sense of humor, but he is serious that he'll

    make the team that passes on him know they made a mistake.

    I'm in. Camp Garrett has root beer. (how about anchovies on the pizza?)

      You know this has been a fun couple of years since I first brought Garrett to the board as what I thought then would be a top NFL draftee this year. Most fun of all has been watching Tour slowly make the turn from a "we'll see" semi-skeptic to a full blow Camp Leader/thread starter. What plays finally tipped you over the edge Tour? 😆 My favorite was one when they tried to do an option on him and he stepped inside forcing the QB to flip it out to the RB and then turned on a dime tracking down the RB around the edge at the LOS causing a turnover on a strip tackle inside the 10. Only other DE I've ever seen do anything like that was Clowney.

        Im still camp allen, for now. But im maybe questioning it. Garett to me is still not NFL ready "right now", not for full time work at least. Allen is better "right now" and could play DT or DE. Garett though has intriguing potential, maybe even has a higher ceiling than allen.

        I guess it all depends on where williams see's the fit.

            Fair take and one I shared for a long time...

            When considering MG also included the possibility of a position change that simply dropped his floor too far for my taste. Williams' arrival removed that consideration.

            Even so I think Allen's floor may still be higher. I honestly do not see a higher floor in this draft.

            But ceiling? I think the top three are all named Myles Garrett... then there's a gap... then come others including Allen.

              I wouldn't have trusted Ray Horton not to misuse Garrett but now Greg Williams is here just take the best player on the board and don't look back.

                    This is about the best reason I ever heard from anyone-shows real character.

                    "I know at the draft you can only have a select amount of people there," Garrett told the Chroncile. "I knew I wanted to have everybody who's ever affected my life positively and helped build me up all the way to where I am now -- I wanted them to see what I've achieved and be a part of this big moment in my life."

                      I'd agree... And plus he doesn't have to look like he's buddies with the commissioner.

                                    I can agree that he shouldn't make/post a video like that, but I honestly don't think it matters. Most of these guys have a favorite team, or at least a team they wish they could play for. Alot of those guys will get drafted and resign with the teams the drafted them, some will want to move on for money or to finally play for said favorite team. I'm not going to guess what a guy is going to do in 5 years based on a video he posts today.

                                      Yeah him wanting to play for his favorite team is a non-issue.

                                        1. He should probably shut up.

                                        2. These Texas homos always seem to want to stay in Texas. Maybe he'll want to go back after the first contract. Or be miserable while he's in Cleveland.

                                        I can agree that he shouldn't make/post a video like that, but I honestly don't think it matters. Most of these guys have a favorite team, or at least a team they wish they could play for. Alot of those guys will get drafted and resign with the teams the drafted them, some will want to move on for money or to finally play for said favorite team. I'm not going to guess what a guy is going to do in 5 years based on a video he posts today.

                                        I like that he has a personality, and I find it normal that we wants to play for his favorite team ... But the clingy Texas thing worries me (Johnny hangover perhaps) and he kinda called out Cleveland while praying for Dallas ... Just not a good look from the perspective of a Browns fan.

                                        In the end, probably won't matter, will still take him #1.

                                          I mean here is what I personally think.

                                          1: He hasn't met with Hue at all. These two will meet at the combine, pro day, and Garrett will likely be invited to the facility for a sit down. If Hue is good at anything, it is making players like him. At the very least Garrett will like the idea of getting to play for Hue and any fears he may have about coming to Cleveland will be greatly diminished.

                                          2: This kid doesn't have the character flaws that might lead him to demand that he won't play in Cleveland. He doesn't come from a Manning like family, he is going to be jazzed to be the #1 overall pick, regardless who takes him.

                                          3: Players can and do fall in love with the teams who draft them and the cities they play for. Thomas was a Green Bay fan, Haden was a Redskins fan who played ball in Flordia. Both fell in love with Cleveland and wanted to stay.

                                          Once again, not a great look for the kid. But to me it seems more like a kid making a fun video to his favorite team. I put more stock behind the video in the first post of this topic than the one asking for the Cowboys to move up.
