  • Rappaport is consistently wrong. Only has his job due to his Patriot connections.

  • For some reason it's hard to put any stock whatsoever in anything that anybody in the front office says. Call me a cynic.

  • In corporate speak that means " We have had extensive discussions regarding discussions but couldn't get it done"

    👍

  • The national media makes shit up about teams constantly, just to reel everybody in. Unless those teams are the beloved Packers, Steelers, Broncos,Patriots, Cowboys or Giants...then it's probably true.

    After disparaging our FO, why would you expect us to be so nice?

    Just more words to eat as he bombs in Chicago and the Browns build a defense to contend with. Chicago screwed the pooch in this draft. I think the Browns played a great smoke game and scared a lot of teams into taking QBs from a mediocre class too early and increasing their own options for great players in the process.

    No, getting both of them would have been the ideal scenario. Bears got a guy to compete with Aaron Rodgers in that division. (or..to take over from his as the supreme QB there.) Bears made big move to get him. Browns would have made a big move to do so just a bit further down, but were trumped by the Bears.

    Chicago would have taken him for nothing @ #3, so Browns had no move "a bit further down".

    Here is the real question. Had Kizer come out after the 2015 season would he have gone a lot higher than 2nd round?

    Right.....but the Browns could have had a move UP to the Niners. That is what the Bears wanted to avoid...ergo their offer.

    Now, maybe Niners would not have taken a chance on losing Thomas...or maybe they would have taken such a chance if the Browns offer were sweet enough, but Browns apparently did not want to get completely raked...and thus declined what the Niners may have been asking for.

    We all don't know what was going on in the backrooms. There was clearly some wheeling and dealing....as the pick took right up to the last moment to be made....and the Bears didn't even call MT to let them know they were taking him. He heard it from the podium. It was probably that close of a deal.

    Here is the real question. Had Kizer come out after the 2015 season would he have gone a lot higher than 2nd round?

    Its not a real question at all. It didn't happen so the question is completely moot.

  • It just goes to show you that the NFL writers literally don't know anything. Reporters can say anything they want and then claim "unnamed sources" or "a person involved with the team" or some crap, and then say, "I would never reveal my sources!" It's crap.

    Ghoolie will give you a firm pat on the head for that one. You might even get to sleep at the foot of the bed.

    No... ya know why?

    Because...

    Wait for it....

    ... he would've only had 13 starts...

  • I think the whole "trade up for Trubisky" was just smoke the whole time. If they thought he was worth an early 1st plus extra picks, they would've taken him at 1. If Trubisky was there at 52, they would've taken him there.

    Not necessarily. I do believe they settled on Garrett at #1 and did not want to miss out on taking him. But I also think if it were possible they would have if they could have moved up to #2 to take MT. But clearly the Browns may have been in a bidding match with the Bears for him....and the Bears had something the Browns could not give: the #3 pick. The Niners did NOT want to lose out on Solomon Thomas...assuming Garrett was gone, and they would have lost out on him by trading with the Browns. Only an incredible haul of draft picks would have likely gotten them to drop from #2 to #12 and the likelihood of losing Thomas....a price the Browns did not want to pay.

    Bottom line though is this: those of you who pooh poohed my belief that MT was perceived as a franchise type player can go suck it. Clearly a few teams saw that potential as well.....enough for one of them to give away some substantial assets to move up one slot.
