Jimmy Garoppolo Speculation

the browns have never had a QB worse than dalton in the playoffs, however.

Actually, they did make the "playoffs" one year with Paul McDonald. That was the 1982 strike year when 16 teams made the playoffs and the Browns were 4-5 in the shortened season.

Per Ed Werder based on his "inside information" Patriots no way are going to trade JG (unless they are overwhelmed):

Two things there Gip. Mary K trying to create news and Boo had better get used to a second round pick for his man crush. Of course, Bill will ship him off if some team is dumb enough to offer a first round pick.

Werder seems to think that nothing short of the Browns #1 overall pick will pry him out of NE. I, of course think that is absurd. They would take #12. But I would not give them that. #52 at best.
We can draft a guy with a bigger arm with more mobility with a quicker release with at least as good accuracy if not better with poise and talent....and with only 2 less games experience in the NFL.

I see what you're saying, but that two games of experience is actually quite a bit more. Three years of running an offense, learning a system, understanding how to prepare, adjusting to the speed of the game, and witnessing first hand what it takes to win in the NFL. Yes, he's got just two games under his belt as a starter, but I believe JG would be ready to start day 1, and I wouldn't want to start ANY of these rookies in 2017 (as of right now, my mind can certainly be changed). The other thing to remember is that we might not have the time needed to groom a young QB. I think we need to win many more games, and do it in a hurry. 1-15 was so tough on everybody, and our front office and owner can sit there and preach all day long about building something great and the importance of continuity, but it's much more difficult to actually see it through.

Johnny Manziel has more of that experience an exposure than JG does. It that is all we are looking at, may as well resign him...if that is all you are looking for.

Only guy that bothers me if he gets to #12 is TE OJ Howard. With Gronks health & Bennett slowing, Bill maybe finding a trade up partner from #32 for JG, if they flat out know they can't get another 1st rounder. McCaffery, Bill may have to move a little, if at all for now..

Gipper---I've silently read the forum off and on for years. Never bothered to write much because, lets face it.... you guys are totally irrelevant and constantly reminding you of that fact seems sort of mean.
RoyceRolls ---Not qualifying for the playoffs saves your team plenty of embarrassment I bet. After all, you have no chance to lose when you're not good enough to try. Besides, I'm sure if you did manage to make the playoffs some fresh new version of Ernest Byner would just fumble the ball again.

There is no man crush.
Garraplolo is the best # 2 NE QB that I have seen in ages. Its a QB weak draft. If that bum Sam Bradford is worth all those pick than JG is worth a 1st.
I'll say it again- Bradford with the Vikes was a completely different situation. Still don't get it?
Bradford had started 63 games, NOT 2. Known quantity.
Vikes thought they were a playoff team. The 2017 Browns are not a playoff team with Garropolo, or for that matter Tom Brady.
Wanted to start the season off well with the shiny new stadium.
The mainstream sports media is doing all they can to link Jimmy to the Browns- because we have those extra picks. Lazy logic. Just because Minnesota was desperate (and gave up too much) to land a decent starter doesn't necessarily mean the Browns have to be stupid too.

The Bears are not giving #3 for JG, would be ridiculous.

2018 first?
crazy talk, McFagley. Go back to Bill,Kraft,the guys that carry's the muskets & the cheerleaders from your local Hooters & tell them any additional 1st rounder won't happen & quit cheating so our friend D'Quell Jackson can retire with a fully non-inflatable football..Tell Bill "no days off" is properly cheating also..

No, not 2 first rounders.
1 first rounder. Those guys are all gone golfing in the warm weather.
The way you fawn over him it seems that JG stands for Jesus Godalmighty. News for you: he ain't quite that good.

Not like we've been saying the same stuff 400 posts later. If the Patriots aren't sure, why should the Browns be? Forget about the #12, not happening.

Nobody is going to trade a high first for G.
never going to happen.

That's the big question...will a team like the 49's or Bears go absolutely bananas and trade away their absurdly high pick for a QB? My brain says, "Hell no, why are we even talking about this?!", but then I think about how important the QB position is. I think, "Trading the #3 pick for Garoppolo is basically the same thing as DRAFTING a QB at #3, so instead of getting a rookie QB there, they'll be getting a guy with at least SOME experience."
Like I said, I really don't see it happening, but look at the QB's available this draft. Who would you start day 1? Kyle Shanahan is coaching the 49's, and there have been several reports stating he liked Garoppolo coming out of college. What if him coaching the 49's was contingent on the team doing everything they could to trade for Garoppolo? Think about it, why would Shanahan take the job in San Francisco when they're a bigger mess than we are? Kaepernick is all but gone, Blaine Gabbert is...well...he's Blaine Gabbert, and if a new head coach has the choice between drafting a rookie QB, or trading for one he liked coming out of college, AND has some experience...who does he choose?
I agree, the Bears OR the 49's trading their ridiculously high pick for JG is CRAZY, but then again, did anybody think the Eagles were going to get what THEY got from the Vikings for Bradford?? (I know it's NOWHERE near applies to oranges, but just pointing out how nutso the trade was).
