A lot still has to happen: combine, pro days, free agency, etc
And assuming the Browns get their QB, what is your preference with the other pick (assuming that person is there). I have seen names from quite a few posters, so I will make the ones I remember. If it's someone else, name them.
Saquon Barkley
Quinton Nelson
Calvin Ridley
Tremaine Edmunds
Bradley Chubb
Minkah Fitzpatrick
Derwin James
Saquon Barkley///Pending Crowell///at #4.. I still will pass till later rounds
Quinton Nelson///pending JT//5 tackles are mocked to go 1st round in 2019 draft.Nelson would require small trade down from #4.imo
Calvin Ridley///I think C.Kirks is the better Pro..may require move up from #33 to get him..Pass on Ridley
Tremaine Edmunds///not at #4
Bradley Chubb---Best player available no doubt is this guy..
Minkah Fitzpatrick ---this is the need guy.. to get Peppers in same area code..Jamie Collins is the QB of the Defense. but this kid can line up the secondary from opponents game tape to cut the missed communications properly in half 1st season
Derwin James--Not the sharpest knife in the drawer. he gets lost in flow of games & misses coverage assignments to roam(cause the rest he had on D sucked)..but he has the Ronnie Lott hits to take your head off..
A)Chubb B)Fitzpatrick

If Chubb was there I'd sure be tempted, but we need help in our secondary so badly. That would be Fitz. I think Chubb will be gone by #4 anyway so a no brainer for me.

Fitzpatrick.
He fills a big need at corner or free safety. Read an SI story on him, the Saban loves the kid. He's a perfectionist and almost like another coach on the field.

Sounds like a Belichick pick if he could make it.

The only thing is he plays for Alabama. They usually have the most talent overall. He could easily be another Trent Richardson and no one would know or see it. I'd take Saquon Barkley. Our offence really needs this guy to improve our running game. This would allow Gordon and whomever we pick up at WR along with our TEs, to get open (quickly).

Is Fitzpatrick a CB or a Safety?
Could he be our Ed Reed/Troy Polamalu......or Darrell Revis......or could he be Dee Milliner?

He's actually both Gip. His primary position is safety, but he's supposedly fast enough to play corner. The combine 40 will tell us....

Near impossible to pass on Chubb for a few reasons.
There is no one like or near him in the draft at his position
Browns would have something other team's only dream of: 2 huge bookends at DE that would scare any team's QB and OC..
There are a plethora of solid Ss and CBs that can be had in R2 that could be starters.
Same with RBs and WRs.
If we have gotten our qb in FA prior to draft, we could grab Chubb at 1 and then take either Barkley or Fitz at 4, one of them would be there for sure.
Having to use 1 on a QB will cost us a sure all pro starter at some position. It sure would be ideal not to have to, but great to have the opportunity if we do.

Listening to a interview snippet today with Mikiah on NFL radio. Mikiah says "Am a true Safety at either position. I learned to play CB by watching tape of some of the greats". He thanked Sabin for trusting him at both positions..Clearly this dude loves the game. Not seeing a Rubin Foster background guy here..

After his playing career is over I can see this guy being a coach some day. Saban trusts him that much out there. The kid from FSU may be a tad better, but his leadership out there is a major factor to take him at #4.
If we end up with McCarron, then take Cubb, Fitzgerad and move up into round 1 for Sony Michel.

You want us to end up with the #1 and #4 overall picks and skip taking QB AGAIN because A.J. McCarron is on the roster?
It feels like some of you want the Browns to never win.

Darnold, Rosen, Mayfield, Allen ................. we know Mayfield is Manziel but which ones become Quinn and Weeden when we draft them ?

If we are taking McCarron from Cincy to play for the Browns then the only reason to do so is that you believe he really is the QB we need, not some rookie draftee. Otherwise it's a wasted deal. Let's just see how it plays out.

I believe that, no matter WHO we sign, we will draft a QB #1 this year. Obviously, none of the QBs available in FA (save Brees, who will stay in NO) have proven to be "Franchise QBs" or they wouldn't be allowed to hit FA. One of these draft eligible guys may be a Franchise QB once developed . We've passed on those types before & I don't think we will pass on them again in 2018.

Cousins is the only one who I think would prevent us from drafting a QB number 1 . The team will have too much invested in him to have then a #1 overall pick sitting behind him for 4 years. The team has too many holes for that .

I agree Mark, but I don't consider Cousins a Franchise QB & feel he's overpriced (I don't believe he'll come here). Of course, IF we sign him, I'll support the decision & hope for the best.

Hes going to be way overpriced...but that's the way the market works. He's still better than anything we've had since Bernie so I would support the decision as well. It wouldn't be my first choice of options though.

It seems we view it the same way. At least we have knowledgeable PROS in the FO making these decisions.
