Baker was the "analytics" pick. . .
And yet, he was picked by a "football guy".
So when a guy checks all the boxes for an "analytics guy" and checks all the boxes for a "football guy", what do you call him?

The #1 pick in the draft?

I can understand the flag planting, but the crotch grabbing, mouthing, police run video, etc have me feeling a bit like a swan dive in Vegas with Stormy Daniels is only a dumb decision away. I get it. He's not the safe pick. This could work out as either Brees or JFF 2.0. But Jezzzzzzzz another Big 12 QB? Really?

Well....my impression is that Dorsey knew about the Browns failures at that position and decided to NOT go with the same pick.
I guess his attitude was: Go Big or Go Home!

I don't get trading down if you can have your pick between Barkley and Chubb. In a less Qb-driven year these guys would be #1 and #2.
Everybody always says BPA, but no one ever means BPA?

For instance, Chubb was the BPA in many eyes but we went Ward because it was such a drastic need. People might be upset, but he's the best corner and we need to stop the freaking pass.

This IS what Dorsey did: Drafted for need. I am sure most would say you don't draft for need if you have 1 and 4......but that is what the Browns did.
QB and CB were the Browns two biggest weaknesses.
Now, those weaknesses have been addressed with the highest possible assets. Now they can fill in lesser needs in round 2. And hopefully do well.

I don't get the PO G hostility he was pimping the guy that most thought was the best player in the draft.
A good case for taking him. But you must have a real quarterback...
WSS
It was because he was so obsequious about it. servile, ingratiating, sycophantic, fawning, unctuous, oily, oleaginous, groveling, cringing,subservient, submissive, slavish;
You know....the way your are toward short women with big tits.

If Mayfield was 2 or 3 inches taller the so called experts would of had him #1 QB ...... I am prepared to support him give him a chance and judge him in 3 years not several hours after the draft before he has even pulled on a Browns jersey .....
We have won the drafts the experts have said for a few years .....the so called experts need to read this

Tony Grossi is spitting his dummy out again, makes the pick worth it whatever happens on the field in future

I’ve watched these now. What I’ve mainly grasped is his girlfriend is very pretty.
And that he definitely likes being the centre of attention

Watching the Hue & Dorsey presser sealed it for me. These guys are so friggin clueless. I watched all but 2 OU games with Baker at QB and anyone who did would know two really important things. First Lincoln Riley’s offense is friggin scary. Second OU’s offensive line was one of the tops in the country and their running attack was equally as good. They hung 45 on a good Georgia defense in the playoff. Baker was a winner because he played at OU for a great coach and with extremely talented players. Of all the QB candidates Baker was on the best offense by far so that’s why you justify the pick. WTF

Hopefully, this translates to the NFL.... What sold me on Baker is he's crazy accurate- 70 completion%. I don't what to hear the "yeah, but his receivers were wide open" BS. He was hitting those wide open guys in stride, with zero adjustment to his passes. How many times last year did we see Kizer throw passes behind guys , over their heads or in the dirt? His completion% would have been a lot worse if guys weren't making circus catches the times his passers were 1\2 on target.
* 33-6 in 39 starts
* Second in D-I history in passer efficiency rating (175.4)
* Big 12 all-time record in yards per attempt (9.8),
* 131:30 TD-to-INT ratio, and 21 rushing scores.
* Led nation in QB rating under pressure in 2015 (117.4), 2016 (119.2), and 2017 (111.6). -

Baker Mayfield will settle our QB problem.
How does it feel knowing we have a guy that will lock down this spot for the long term.
No more QB talk- now we can focus our attention on the next thing... finding the next Barkley!
