Tyrod from a Bills Fan's Perspective
-
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)

If the browns draft Lamar Jackson, they are stupid fools...
No matter who the Browns draft, they are stupid fools. This is already etched in stone.
The Cleveland Browns have the hardest hit players in the NFL -

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.

Realistically....it could be 5-6 candidates: Barkley, Chubb and anyone of the 4 QBs including one the Browns take.
Who else can you see going in top 3 before Browns choose at #4?

Browns getting Tyrod is a good move, Browns should draft theirQB for the future. At a minimum Tyrod will serve well as a bridge but just maybe he will prove valuable for th next 2 or 3 years. Tyrod may not be Brady but he can throw the ball, the Bills gave him no protection and no receivers. I expect this to change with the Browns and you will be happy to have him.

My perspective on Tyrod is a little different than the OP's and I am also a Bills fan that watched every game he played. In the 3 years he started if the team fell behind by 10 points at any point in the game we never came back. He has 1 300 yard passing game in his career and it took OT to get it. TT is a team guy and a hard worker but... Most games he throws for under 200 yards and doesn't see guys running wide open. Landry is a great WR but TT won't be able to utilize him correctly because he rarely throws over the middle and never throws anyone open. He also holds on to the ball longer than any QB in the league causing many many sacks.

Luckily for you guys he's just a backup plan for the guy that you will end up drafting. In our case he was "the guy" and he's nothing more than a bridge/backup in reality.

Honestly, at this point, there's NO ONE I would guarantee to be gone by the time the Browns are on the board at #4.
Gun to my head, I would say Darnold and Chubb.

Well....he does take a lot of sacks. Was that his fault....or the result of a pretty bad OL? On the other hand, he threw very few picks. Our guy last year could almost always be counted on to throw an interception at a critical time. I think the Browns easily could have won 4-5 games if Kizer had the same TD/INT ratio as Taylor. But, if that were the case, he would still be here and Taylor would not.

It's not the OL he holds the ball for a very long time I think the number was 3.71 seconds ( I may be off on that a bit) if he sees the guy and he is wide open he will throw it but he has no anticipation throws. He doesn't throw picks because he doesn't throw it. He had 8 games where he threw for less than 200 yards last season. He threw for 56 yards vs the Saints. He threw for more than 250 yards 3 times. Again I agree he's better as a stop gap/bridge than Kizer. But he's nothing more than a .500 or below QB. I'm excited for your QB of the future and happy TT isn't with us anymore.

So...you think a team that has gone 1-31 the last two years couldn't do with a QB that went 22-20 for you the last 3 years? At least for a bit?
You seem to be saying that he was overly prudent with the ball? Well, maybe, but that got you a playoff spot for like the first time since Jim Kelly played, no? Well ....err....actually, I see that it was Doug Flutie.
Also....riddle me this: Who the HELL WILL be the QB of the Bills? You don't think it will be Nathan Peterman? Are the Bills going for one of the FAs? I have never heard their name in connection with the Kirk Cousins venture.
Are they going to go after Keenum, McCarron, Bridgewater, Bradford? Some other name?
Are they going to go after a QB in the draft? It seems they have to. Do they plan to take one at #21 or #22.....GOD forbid its #22!!
Or do they plan to package both picks to move up?
Do you think they are talking to the Browns for #4?
To make that trade work....on the "old" value chart.....the Bills would have to give the Browns #21, #22, plus give us back #65

Under the new "Harvard Chart".....the #21 and #65 would do. We can see how that argument could go back and forth.

So....let's put it out there to the patrons here. The Bills are now as desperate...or even more so...as the Browns were for a QB.
Would you trade #4 overall to the Bills for #21, #22 and get back #65?
Or would you accept something less than that?
