Garrett Peppers and 1st rounder

How amazing would it be if Ruben Foster falls to the 33rd pick.

It would have been...
I don't think he made our board... too many strikes...

Good draft

3 starters and an extra 1st rounder next year.......

QB 2018, BABY!
I will be surprised if we don't spend a 2018 to help us get back into the 4th round... maybe the late 3rd.

I just don't get what they're plan is.
What's so hard to understand? They did pretty much what I thought they would do. They took the best pass rusher in the draft, a safety that fits Gregg Williams' scheme as a box safety and fills our returner needs as well, and a tight end with tremendous upside for an offensive scheme that led to Tyler Eiffert catching 13 TD's in Hue Jacksons last season in Cincinnati.

haha we all get obsessed with the draft and yet actually it'll take at least two years to prove anything. That said, I am deligted with the Njoku pick

Really? It seems pretty obvious to me, top athletes who are versatile.
Peppers can move from the secondary into the box, Njoku, can move from inline all the way outside if necessary and I shouldn't have to get into what Garrett can do.
Was it exactly what I was hoping for? No, but I see what the FO is going for and I don't hate it in the slightest.

Great draft do far to set us up for next year

1. Cleveland Browns: Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M Grade: AGarrett is an elite pass rusher, something the Browns’ defense sorely lacked last season. Cleveland tallied the second-fewest sacks and allowed the third-most passing yards per attempt last season. Most of those struggles stemmed from not putting consistent pressure on the opposing quarterback, and Garrett should address that from Week 1. The Browns could have addressed their QB need with this pick, but taking the best player available and filling another major need was the smart move.25. Cleveland Browns (from Houston Texans): Gerbil Peppers, S, Michigan Grade: A-The Browns continued to add to their defense in Round 1, this time in the secondary with the versatile Peppers. The Michigan safety is an excellent tackler and brings elite athleticism to Cleveland’s defense.29. Cleveland Browns (from Green Bay Packers): David Njoku, TE, Miami (FL) Grade: A-The Browns moved back into the first round for their third pick, and took an exceptional pass-catching tight end from Miami-FL. Jordan Cameron’s injury issues in recent seasons created a need for tight end depth in Cleveland. -
Nice

Garrett, Watson, Njoku and now you had a mike drop. Don't understand why we didn't pull the trigger on that. What leadership and competitiveness Watson brings. Even if he was a bust, atleast it was taking a shot at it - like Oakland did with Carr.

Even though Cameron has been gone for awhile...

Browns...
Browns...
Did they shit themselves? We'll see. Kinda reminds me of when Bill B. was running things here in Cleveland, the guy he wanted went off the board, he panicked, and took Craig Powell.
I just don't get what they're plan is.
Their plan obviously is to have every pick in the first and second round by 2030.
Great draft do far to set us up for next year
Only if Garrett is the second coming of Bruce Smith or Reggie White, Peppers turns out as good as Ray Lewis, and Njoku is another Ozzie Newsome. Just cool it- I like the Garrett and Njoku picks (though I hated giving up the #33, it's worth a lot) I just hope Peppers isn't the proverbial "Jack of all trades, and Master of none."
Screw next year- it's a freaking broken record. One of the guys former sig lines "The Cleveland Browns, rebuilding since 1999. Why stop now?"

I'm guessing they like what will be available next year more.... Either by FA or draft.

I hated the trade down.......I hated it because we could have had a really good player, I hated it because I think we should have been paid more for dropping that far. I didn't like Watson so I was OK on passing on him. But I would have liked Hooker or Allen instead of Peppers.

No problem Tour- with those picks, we should be drafting #1 overall again in 2018. Only 1\2 kidding. Let Kessler and the Ostrich duke it out this year @ QB, the rest of this QB draft class is pure crap. And MHO is we're not touching Kelly either- not if we passed on Foster who has\had 1\2 the off field baggage and 5 X the talent.

^^^^ This, and I agree. Ghoolie was having a field day in the Tavern busting chops, passing on that talent. Could have had Rubin Foster too, and if that shoulder is sound and he doesn't get a fat head off the field, I see another Ray Lewis talent.
