Ran that one back, managed to move around a little and picked up another 1st for next year. This would be ideal. The franchise RB. The stud CB/FS... gotta start rebuilding the secondary somewhere. Vita Vea actually took over for Shelton at Washington when Shelton went pro, and he's a big ol' monster. Imagine Garrett, Vea, Shelton and Ogbah as the front four! Daaamn. Then we picked up a heck of a playmaker with Mayfield, who may actually turn out to be the best QB in this draft class. Cobbs Jr. is a nice WR, tall and has hands. Oliver is a CB that I'm really starting to like. Penny would be a complimentary back to Barkley and also return kicks and punts. With Tabor going to Chicago maybe a new kicker is in order. Daniel Carlson appears to be the best kicker in the draft. Street is a beast, squatting 700lbs! Our D-Line would be unstoppable. Garrett, Shelton, Vea, Street, Ogbah, Nassib, Orchard... backed up by Collins, Kirksey and Show...

2020 Round 1 Pick -
It's easy to say that our new GM won't trade down because it's what every other GM did and failed at, but these guys all believe they're the smartest person in the room, so I'm thinking there will be SOME shaking and baking in the first round. And why not? We have two insanely high picks...there's a chance it might make sense to gather a few more resources in 2019. We do this right and we could build a team full of 1st and 2nd round talent for years to come. I think the main thing is not to trade down TOO far.
I mean, if we somehow sign Kirk Cousins, do we really need to pick 1 and 4? What if we could trade down from 1 to somewhere like 12 and get a 2019 first rounder and still get the #1 WR on our board? I'm the first one to say I don't believe we have a chance in heck to get Cousins, but I've been wrong before (ask my wife). More realistically, we're drafting a QB at 1, and taking Minkah Fitzpatrick at 4. It'd be pretty tough to beat that. Grab a RB, DB, and WR in round 2....and we're filling some major holes. And that's not even considering what we do in FA, which I believe will be a solid effort. Probably corner, WR (Pryor, Landry?), QB and who knows what else. I'm pretty stoked.

That's because this is all that remains for Browns fans, the season sucks so we have to be satisfied with the off-season.

I say draft the best QB at # 1 and trade down with # 4 pick. There's a good chance a team will get hot for their QB on the board and be willing to move up a few spots to get him. I'm thinking Jets or Broncos. You may get a 2 nd rd pick and still get the player you want after the trade down.

Its a thought. I would like them to get Minkah Fitzpatrick however...and it would probably take #4 to get him.....though some on here proclaim Derwin James better...and you may get him at like #6 or 7. I don't know. I just know we need a damned good defensive back for this team...or two.

Barkley is the future. You take that guy #1 overall all day and 25+ times on Sunday or the Giants/Colts will snag him up. He has the potential to be the offensive rookie of the year. All eyes will be on him and what he's going to do in the pros. This kid is 20 years old and has all the tools you need and want in a feature back. I get that you typically don't draft RB #1 overall but if we want to get to winning, we need him. If you put the best parts of Crowell and Duke Johnson together you'd still need to add some more to create a player like Barkley. He's a rare player.
#4 - Take Fitz if he's really all that and a bag of chips. If not, take the QB... but I don't believe in Donald or Frozen to be the QBOTF. I think that Mayfield is better than both. I get that Mayfield has attitude but it's not the Manziel type that it's perceived to be. He's his own man and I think that he has that 'it' factor. He could be the QBOTF.

Sometimes guys are better in college than pros (most are), and on occasion guys are better in pros than college. A lot has to do with the team around then. Then there are guys who were really good both, and just over or under perform where they are drafted.
He can have all the measurables in the world, but I certainly didn't see #1 overall pick in Barkley. He just didn't perform great against his toughest competition. And a lot of backs go in later rounds and have productive careers. When you have so many other holes to fill, I would go with trying to fill others before RB when you can get one in FA, or later in draft.
Todd Gurley is really good, and he was 10th pick

I really like USC's Ronald Jones at RB.

I thought is was gonna be Kizer? Oh, no? How many wins did Kizer have over Hogan? Hogan had the better stats and had he been allowed to play out the season, I promise you- we wouldn't have had a perfect season parade... I guess some people like that kind of Sheet.
