    Gee...I am wondering if getting a 6'0"   bridge QB is a portent to selecting a 6'0"   QB in the draft?

    Maybe sometimes there is too much emphasis put on the 6' quarterbacks good or bad -but- naturally I'd rather start with a 6' 5" prototype if possible. 

    This 2018 quarterback class still doesn't do much for me.......oh I already said that. 😆

  •  Drafting a quarterback in the top 5 to match up well with the bum you just got from the scrapheap (but paid a high price for) is like buying a brand new car because it matches the seat covers in your old beater.

  • This will probably be less popular, but it's my honest opinion on the deal and what it means for those first couple selections:

    Not that I think Taylor's a bum ...

    But I agree the idea of quarterback "pairings" is stupid.

    Signing Taylor doesn't mean we are drafting Mayfield. It means he found him to be the best available bridge QB.

    I'm pretty sure Todd Haley can draw gameplans for big strong-armed QBs too.

    And Jackson isn't getting drafted in the top 5. 🙂 My current take NIckers. With the moves Dorsey made, (picking up a WR, and CB) besides Taylor. It looks pretty clear QB #1, and hope Chubb is there at #4. If  it looks like the Colts are going to take him, flip 4 and 3, give Indy the #35. We might not even have to if the Broncos or Jets trade up with the Colts- because they sure as hell aren't doing it to take a defensive player. We'll take Crow's replacement at the top of the second. I have doubts Dorsey would value Saquon over a top edge rusher, they way he looks at running back value.

    I agree with you. I'm starting to think Mayfield or Allen #1 and then Barkley, Chubb, Minkah, or Ward 4th. I appreciate you checking out the article. I'm not a Browns fan, but I think you guys are set up for a great run with so many picks. For what it's worth, I loved your 3 other trades even though I didn't like the Tyrod deal.

  • I'm liking Chubb at #4 more and more.  Him,  Garrett,  ogunjobi,  Brantley,  Coley,  and whatever other rookie or free agents they get...  now you can get some pressure on the qb

    He'll be gone already.

    To who? If we take QB at 1.... either #2 or #3 will take a QB, or trade away the pick for another team to get a QB, or they'll take Saquon.

    At this pace this board thinks that roughly 30 players are guaranteed to be gone by the time the Browns are on the clock at #4. 😆

  • What if the plan has Buffalo on the line to trade 21 and 22 and.....for the 4 pick and draft a LT,CB, RB,or LB at 21 & 22

    Things that make you go HMMMMMM!!!

    GO BROWNS!!!

    We will find out if he is gone next Saturday when the real draft starts..... 🙂

    Can we please stay away from pick #22?

    Odds are either Chubb or Barkley will be there at 4.  (If NY takes a QB or someone trades up for one)

    No matter who the Browns draft, they are stupid fools. This is already etched in stone.

    As they say in the investment world- and it applies to the Browns, "past performance is no guarantee of future results." Your coffee fetcher seems to be doing OK bringing in an influx of talent, and tossing the dead weight overboard so far. 

  • For anyone curious about the picks that we still have for the draft... 

    Round 1 Pick 1
    Round 1 Pick 4
    Round 2 Pick 1
    Round 2 Pick 3
    Round 2 Pick 32
    Round 4 Pick 14
    Round 5 Pick 22
    Round 6 Pick 1
    Round 7 Pick 1

  • As just a brief comparison:

    Games:   Taylor  58 games  43 starts   Cousins  62 games, 57 starts

    Record as starter:   Taylor  22-20    Cousins 26-30-1  (numbers from pfr....not sure where Taylor's other game went)

    Att/Comps:   Taylor  793/1271    Cousins  1372/2096

    Comp. % :  Taylor 62.4    Cousins 65.5

    Yards:  Taylor  9056   Cousins  16,206

    TDs:  Taylor 51    Cousins  99 

    INT.s:  Taylor  18   Cousins   55

    TD%   Taylor 4.0   Cousins  4.7

    Int%  Taylor  1.4   Cousins 2.6

    YPA   Taylor  7.1   Cousins  7.7

    YPC  Taylor 11.4   Cousins 11.8

    YPG  Taylor 156.1  Cousins 261.4

    Rating  Taylor  91.2  Cousins 93.7

    Sacks  Taylor 129   Cousins  106

    What do these tell us:

    Cousins was in an offense prone more to throwing.     He also took more risks with his throw...given the divergence with the Int. numbers.  Taylor was more likely to eat the ball...given his sack numbers.
