    I couldn't disagree more. They are the two top prospects in the draft.

    Best Qb + Barkley or Chubb = Good day at the office.

      This is the scenario that I have heard discussed more than once on the radio and TV:

      Browns take their QB at #1

      Giants take Chubb with #2

      Jets take a QB with #3

      Then what do the Browns do?   They wanted Chubb at #4...but if the Giants nab him.....they are not willing to just settle for Barkley.  Dorsey don't want no RB in round one.....so....the do the trade with Buffalo:

      #4 for #12 and #22.

      And with those they get combination of maybe  CB,  OT, DE........guys like Tremaine Edwards,  Denzel Ward if he is still there, McGlinchey if he drops, Jaire Alexander, Marcus Davenport.

      It would NOT be a total surprise if something like this happens...at all.

      Not willing to "settle" for Barkley?

      What retarded radio and TV shows do you listen too?

      I listen to a lot and never heard that floated...

      I don't know....every radio and TV show out there?   I heard it brought up on two different shows just this morning....that if Chubb is not there, they may pass on Barkley for a trade down.   ESPN 850....and 92.3 .I think it may have been on Wingo and Golic.

      Again....it was just speculation on options...if Chubb is gone.

          I would have no problem with that either.  All I am saying is that I have heard speculation that if Chubb is not there, they may elect to trade down.

          Of course it is all media speculation....but that is what the media does...and that is what we do:   Report what the media says...or make up our own shite.  I did not make this up....I just reported it.

            But, here perhaps is where you may not be getting it:   Dorsey may NOT think that Barkley is the BPA  (or any RB would)

            I guess, at this point, we will know soon enough.

                Not sure how far I would be willing to trade down.  Don't give a single Shmuck about Barkley, but I wouldn't like missing on Ward should Chubb be taken ahead of #4.

                  If Chubb is gone, I'm ok with a trade down, but no lower than #6. The chatter on NFLN yesterday was if we take Darnold, the G-men are taking Barkley. 

                  Hmm. Bills could do a twofer trade. Give a bunch of picks to the Colts for #6, then offer the Browns #6 and a 2019 first round for #4. Deal? I think I take it. 🙂

                        Well....we will feed you some of the grubs that we find if there are any after turning over the rocks we do. It is optional for you to dip them in chocolate syrup before consuming them.

                            Mmmmmm, grubs, maybe with tartar or Socktail sauce. 😛

                            Wife got stuck in pouring rain yesterday getting groceries at three different stores, we then decided we'd pay ~$10 or so for home delivery IF they don't screw up the order!

                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

                            Now trade down, I hope not unless Chubb and Barkley are both gone. Trade up, unlikely.

                            GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

                                hate the idea of trading down..several BPA sit at #4.just Make the pick & stop passing..Dorsey(who was reported as going to church at 8am) has drafted 6 CB's,liking 6 fts. weighing 190lbs.'ish. ..Marcus Peters was the slowest at 4.53. Also dorsey seems to like Vertical numbers with longer arms at CB position.Josh Jackson,Alexander,I.Oliver seem more his style.. can we continue to play smurf's at CB with the size of our divisional WR's & TE's?

                                  Targeting Ward in Trade down?

                                  hate the idea of trading down..several BPA sit at #4.just Make the pick & stop passing..Dorsey(who was reported as going to church at 8am) has drafted 6 CB's,liking 6 fts. weighing 190lbs.'ish. ..Marcus Peters was the slowest at 4.53. Also dorsey seems to like Vertical numbers with longer arms at CB position.Josh Jackson,Alexander,I.Oliver seem more his style.. can we continue to play smurf's at CB with the size of our divisional WR's & TE's?

                                  I picked Oliver for the Broncos in our draft just for those reasons. I like him better for us than I do Ward. Maybe @ #33 especially if we move up for a RB end of the 1st.

                                    How does that eliminate Ward from consideration?

                                      This is the scenario that I have heard discussed more than once on the radio and TV:

                                      Browns take their QB at #1

                                      Giants take Chubb with #2

                                      Jets take a QB with #3

                                      Then what do the Browns do?   They wanted Chubb at #4...but if the Giants nab him.....they are not willing to just settle for Barkley.  Dorsey don't want no RB in round one.....so....the do the trade with Buffalo:

                                      #4 for #12 and #22.

                                      And with those they get combination of maybe  CB,  OT, DE........guys like Tremaine Edwards,  Denzel Ward if he is still there, McGlinchey if he drops, Jaire Alexander, Marcus Davenport.

                                      It would NOT be a total surprise if something like this happens...at all.

                                      Not willing to "settle" for Barkley?

                                      What retarded radio and TV shows do you listen too?

                                      I listen to a lot and never heard that floated...

                                          Meanwhile back at the thread...

                                          I think the idea of trading down #4 is getting warmer.
