    If the browns pick anything other than a qb at 1 or pick mayfield or Allen at 1 they deserve to lose for another 30 years

    FIFY. Listening to Aikman on Eisen's radio show, even Troy is leery of Allen, for the same reason a bunch of us are- accuracy doesn't usually improve in the pros. 

    Mayfield is not Manziel. If he was 2" taller, there wouldn't even be any discussion, Baker would be the lock #1. Aikman mentioned (BTW, he's 6' 4") there were times he couldn't see over his o-line either. It's all about throwing lanes, and Mayfield's % of passes batted down is low.  .

    So it's Darnold or Rosen for you?

    They will be the Baytown Browns long before losing for 30 years.

    Seriously though this does have all of the elements for a successful draft and improved season.

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

    C'mon babe, we certainly do not NEED to draft a QB #1 overall in order to have success. 

    Barkley would help the Browns create one of the most dynamic and dangerous offense's since the greatest show on turf...

  • The funny thing about this time of year - every year, is people seem to forget that no matter who's name is called over the next few days, we truly won't know how good the draft is for another 1,095 more days....... but that won't stop most of us from proclaiming it a bust or awesome before all the new players even set foot in Berea.

  • It's interesting that there have been rumors of the browns linked to every qb but Rosen...Any chance this is actually their guy? They know it and want to see who is willing to move up for what player. They could be perfectly positioning themselves because if they know the Jets love Mayfield, the Giants love Darnold, Bills Allen, then they could try to persuade one of those teams to move up knowing they are going to get Rosen at 3 or 4. Just a thought.

  • With one sleep left....

  • I still think it's Sam, and I'll be initially disappointed if it's any other QB that didn't play college football in SoCal.

    Willing to yield this point when it comes to players where you see NFL upside and flashes of the traits.     

    Some on the other hand.... not so much.  

  • No need to wait on Barkley, he should be an IMPACT player from Day 1 of OTAs. Pushing guys to reach their full potential. Winners are made in the offseason.

  • Guys, let's get Saquon Barkley some votes, he's easily the most explosive player in the draft. 

    We need guys that can take a 5 yard pass to the house or turn a routine 1st/2nd down run into a footrace to the endzone.

  • I think it would be funny if we picked Rosen, simply because he has been linked the least to the Browns. It would also mean that Dorsey has done a hell of a job hiding the pick.

    That's exactly my point from earlier. He's the only one that you have not heard a peep about being connected to the Browns. Last year, whom had any idea the Bears loved Trubs that much and KC loved Mahomes that much? Absolutely no one. Dorsey has kept this thing so close to the vest, i swear he has sent smoke signals out on everyone else just to try and get a feel for the rest of the draft.

    The poll just goes to show how far out of touch you are in your Saquon fantasy zone. 

    WE NEED A FREAKING FRANCHISE QB FIRST PO. The last time the Browns drafted a qb higher than #20 was Tim Couch in 1999, and our last franchise qb Bernie Kosar was before that.

    Fair enough. Although drafting a QB #4 overall would still be a huge jump higher than 20, right?
