Hooray, another thread that I can offer PoG to back up his guarantee that the Browns take Barkley #1 overall for $100 and he'll ignore because he knows he's full of poop.
C'mon Dutch, give him some odds, collect your money Thursday night on PayPal and be done with it.

PayPal? Hell, I'll drive to the other side of Stark County and pick up my money in person.
I'm sure it won't be the first time there's been a money exchange in a parking lot in Alliance.

I would like:
1)a Rosen or Darnold
1b) Chubb
2a,b&c) best - RB, OT, WR (if possible, any order)

But then again I heard Gil Brandt on NFL Radio just say that Barkley was the best RB to come along since Adrian Peterson. Almost draft night!

And Adrian Peterson who I consider a superior RB, wasn't drafted until #7. Just another reason to NOT draft Saquon at #1.

Well, to be fair, he did guess right on two- Honey Badger, and Derek Carr. Hmmmm, Carr or Manziel- tough choice there. BTW, taking a look back at the 2014 Draft, I just got ill looking at all the Pro Bowl talent we passed on to get Gilbert and Johnny.

Living in NC, I was not a M.Trub-ski Fan. Not because I was a huge NC State Wolfpack or ECU fan..but we shall see on Mitch'L..This draft am worried about B.Chubb & a big fan of his. Most see Chubb,Street & BJ Hill on defense & say "how can they lose up front". well They did, a lot to my disappointment. Blame the post rankings from ESPN but most media markets posted the same Pre-CFB defensive rankings. Listed is "pre" season order. than in ( ) is where they finished..#1) Buckeyes(9) 2. Clemson (4) 3.FSU(18)//(unranked Michigan finished 3rd overall). 4)Miami(38) 5.NC State(58!) 6)Alabama(1) 7)Auburn(14) 8)Washington(8) 9.LSU(12) 10.Wisconsin(2)...None of the big 3 guys missed any games for NC State. Packs Points allowed was far worse... A.) We Can't Score TD's!!( Why not Barkey if he falls to #4) B.) We still have no Replacement for Joe Haden long term. (Why not Denzel Ward or Mikah at #4?) Am just not seeing the bigger talent roster gap as starters between Ogbah or Chubb..All am seeing is better DE Depth to sub-packages & maybe bring some QB heat more off\n.Which we need that too
..tick tock (come on Thursday)

It would be hard to fault them for taking an offensive weapon, obviously. Or the other defensive players you mentioned. But I think a pretty good RB could be had in round 2.
But ya know what, if they want to give TieRod the best RB in the draft as a weapon so they can go 'win now'....who's gonna fault them?

he was all in on Honey Badger.

And Adrian "All Day" Peterson had health concerns stemming from that recent collarbone injury...and I still say no. Chubb is the right pick at #4.. AD has no rings.
But LT does. Lawrence, not LaDanian.
#1 Allen
#4 Chubb/Mayfield/Darnold
#33 don't care, surprise me.
(yes, If Chubb is gone I'd rather have 2 rookie QBs that don't play than draft Saquon "The Luxury We Can't Afford" Barkley).
-
Here's a projection of what a Saquon first draft could look like. Why don't a few of you guys try out a couple of these?
Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 1: Barkley, Saquon, RB, Penn State (A)
Round 1 Pick 4: Mayfield, Baker, QB, Oklahoma (A-)
Round 2 Pick 1: Jackson, Josh, CB, Iowa (A)
Round 2 Pick 3: Price, Billy, C/OG, Ohio State (A-)
Round 2 Pick 32: Washington, James, WR, Oklahoma State (A)
Round 4 Pick 14: Cobbs Jr, Simmie, WR, Indiana (A+)
Round 5 Pick 13: Hill, Holton, CB, Texas (A+)
Round 6 Pick 1: Carlson, Daniel, K, Auburn (A+)
Round 7 Pick 1: Flowers, Dimitri, FB, Oklahoma (A+)
Your Future Picks:
2019 Round 1 Pick
2020 Round 1 PickRB/QB Combo
2- WRs that are playmakers- or we could have had St. Brown or Christian Kirk- depends on which ones you like.
Josh Jackson could be a contender for the #1 CB spot. Hill, while I think he'll be gone earlier, could be a project at Safety.
Great Center from Ohio State, should give us an even better offensive line in the future.
Flowers was Mayfield's swiss army knife in college, giving him a familiar face/target and adding him to the running back room will allow for some interesting matchup situations.
Kicker? - While I'm fond of Gonzales, he's our kicker. I'm still looking for the next Dawson. We need a guy that we can count on 100% to put three up for us if we can get close enough.

And Adrian Peterson has won how many SB's?.... ZERO!
All the Browns scraped for 48 TD's last season..AP alone in 12 years 104 TD's..GOAT J.Brown alone in 8 years 126 TD's....Barkley maynot be neither?..But if he's just a small "goat"? we may still miss a good player of AFCN need at #4..Bah..Bah!..at our TD pace. it will take almost 5 seasons for 11 guys to catch both of them combined in career TD's

Oh yeah parking lot money exchanges what could go wrong there? Better make it at 3 am so it won't be too crowded.

Meanwhile the Barkley Sweepstakes is getting more interesting if nothing else.

Save your Sweepstakes money..The first time Cal Allen misses a exchange to Poe Barkley we'll need A)Dutch in a referees suit. B)a WWE caged ring. C)in a Purse & Ladders match(check.. wife's floor is 35 purses by sunrise) D.a)ring girls with tits & giggles D.d)Maybe we can get Z & Goonie in the Main Event? as a bonus, U2 will be playing "The streets have no Name" from bell to bell..

But defense wins Championships... Drop off between Barkley and Michel isn't nearly as drastic as the drop off between the top defensive guys and "next best".

I'm still failing to see beyond the bionic arm what makes Allen "special"..

Not seeing it much anymore H. Check the past playoff rounds.Butcher Bortles can hang 45 in the steel-less curtain.Brees just scored again eating the purple people eater. Nick Foles beats Brady that almost quit playing football all together. If we miss on this QB class? Goodell could start shoveling dirt in Otto Graham,England? We can't count on this defense unless it stays healthy.Defensive depth is the key.. But we got to score more TD's..Physically,if his injury checks out, Nick Chubb is closest to Barkley imo.(check both combine numbers)
-
There is a pack of "2nd-best" RBs in this draft... Michel... Chubb... Jones... Penny... Guice...
Plus there's a respectable Day 3, bargain bin to rummage thru.
Everyone has a favorite RB2. Everybody likes one.
If not as much as Barky, then for most they like one well enough to salve any wound resulting from missing out on the Saquan Sweepstakes.
