    Trades were already in place.No more trading.Just the picks that we made all 6 rounds at Browns pick..now If you see a player traded FOR after our pick? he's browns grabable

    Yeah, seems they are happy with the young guys on the DL, only added a complimentary pass rusher. I know our DTs graded out well last year and they didn't even try to replace Shelton other than with that promising UDFA.

    Zombo

    Remember that they also acquired ....I think his name is Chris Smith...as FA....to add depth to the DL.   He too is a DE.

    I think then they are apparently very satisfied with the likes of Coley, Brantly, Ogunjobi, and Meder at DT.

    The only area I am still iffy about is OLB.    Chad Thomas is listed as a DE.   Genard as an ILB.  I thought we needed help there that we did not get....unless either of those guys make the transition to OLB.

    Dorsey said on the radio today that he had outside lb measurables, yet played well inside, so he saw him getting long looks in both spots.

  • Going to be interesting to see what develops redrafting in the absence of trades which was my biggest disappointment. However, the reported interest in our earliest picks was surprisingly low.

    • Note 1: Very quickly I am learning that the way the draft fell it is not easy to just slide in players I liked better... at least not early.
    • Note 2: Included actual draft slots for changes I made to track length of "reach" the way the draft fell.

    Tour's Redraft...

    1.01 Mayfield Rosen (QB, 1.10) - gotta stay with my guy

    1.04 Ward (CB, 1.04) - no reason to change, but if Mayfield was still there, and the odds of him being there are good,  then calls from AZ and NE among others would have been taken.

    2.01 Corbett (OL) Josh Jackson (CB, 2.13) doubling up on CBs early might not seem prudent, but in a very good CB class like this one, I go this way.

    2.03 N. Chubb (RB) DJ Chark (WR, 2.29) - my WR

    3.03 C. Thomas (DL) Justin Reid (FS, 3.04) - our new FS from GB might be the guy, but why risk all on him with this bargain starring you in the face.

    4.05 Callaway (WR) Mo Hurst (DT, 5.03) - last chance to land my improvement over Chad Thomas and since I don't need a WR here anymore...

    5.13 Avery (ILB) - I'm good here...

    6.01 Ratley Dylan Cantrell (WR, 6.17) -  I like my WR better than Ratley... and Callaway.

    6.14 Thomas Justin Jackson (RB, 7.33) - longest reach of my substitution draft, but it is what it is.

    I think the only area where I did not make a pick that our FO did, was the OL. Combo of being fine with Shon Coleman and liking our UDFA p/u, Harrison, and the stronger 2019 OT class kept me from reaching one of my guys.

    Interesting exercise and much tougher than I thought going in...

    GUMBY's  Redraft...

    1.01 Mayfield MAYFIELD (QB, 1.10) -  BACK TO my guy

    1.04 Ward (CB, 1.04) - no reason to change check..

    2.01 Corbett (OL) Josh Jackson (CB, 2.13) check or Harold Landry/Christian Kirk

    2.03 N. Chubb (RB) N,CHUBB  back to my guy

    3.03 C. Thomas (DL) Justin Reid (FS, 3.04) or Sam Hubbard

    4.05 Callaway (WR) Mo Hurst (DT, 5.03) Mo check..guys a steal

    5.13 Avery (ILB) - I'm good here...also..but 2 tackles options Jamarco Jones/Tyrell Crosby? (still leaning keep pick again)  

    6.01 Ratley Deon Cain/Equanimeous St.Brown

    6.14 Thomas My local guy this draft was WR Braxton Berrios, Drafted by the evil empire Pats. with J.Landry in place? may never happen..  am still working on 6th rounders 

    Much respect to those holding all those original Browns picks. I tried this exercise last night & honestly I could not change much..Was hoping some of pouting members would post theirs but we shall see..Gip, we all know about the 3-4 year rule on rookies..but does it ever apply to a fan forum board in year 1 if not year 2? of 9 picks i may only move 2 6th & a 4th..Job well done Dorsey & crew   

  • 1. L. Jackson- QB

    4. D. Ward- CB

    32. N. Chubb- RB

    34. A. Miller- WR

    67. M. Cole- C

    105. A. Watts- S

    150. T. Crosby - T

    175. E. St. Brown - WR

    188. T. Young -DE

  • Nice idea Gumby.  But pretty much I want them to draft the guys that they really want to take.  -  I wanted Rosen or Darnold.  But they really wanted Mayfield, so that's who I want them to have.  I mean, we needed a QB real bad...and it's not like Mayfield was a bum...or was a punter or something.  They took a QB.  The one they liked best.

    At the top of round two I was hoping for Connor Williams...but hey, they took a guy somewhat like him.

    Round 4 they took an a-hole WR.  And they traded up to get him.  Rubs a lot of people the wrong way.  But he's potentially a really good football player....and we could certainly use a really good WR.  So now we have 2 a-hole WR's.  We'll see how that works out but I can't fault him for rolling the dice there.  I'll only fault him if the guy continues to be an a-hole and they don't cut him because they drafted him.

    Go Browns!

    All I can say is "They Better be Right On Kizer" We sat at #101 in 4th before trade. The risk on Callaway would cost far less without trading back up from #114 back up to #105> to get Callaway if he fails.We'd take him at #101.What could be worse? is the players we missed on in the 5th giving up #138 waiting till #150 to pick G. Avery..The list includes Mo Hurst & Shaq Griffin.. 

  • Damn, my draft looks a lot like Tour2ma's and Gumby's.  Hmmm maybe I'll change it up a bit later to be a bit different. 🙂

    lol... I understand (and share) your reservations about the comapny, but the way the draft fell there should be a far amount of commonality at a few picks, e.g., J.Jackson, Reid and Hurst.

    Just noticed, If you're not moving up in round 4 to pick Callaway, you should have an extra 6th round pick (#178 overall).

    You still have one more pick to make!

    I love your thread idea, but if we didn't move up in the 4th to pick Calloway, we'd still have an extra 6th!

    But I understand, your thread your rules. 🙁

    But Dorsey did, without your (if) approval😉.. I get your thought but GM's trade picks.Just trying to keep it real with the pick #'s we had. Avoids the 2014 Browns Draft. If we never trade #4(Sammy Watkins/Khalil Mack) down to #9 to Vikings we never move up to #8 for Justin Gilbert? or if we sit at pick #26 Eagles pick we never go up to #22 for Johnny Manziel? Here's to hoping Calloway left his baggage & a the extra pick somewhere in Florida..  

  • For shits and giggles, I will see where my Browns mock draft guys went ... But screw these guys:

    Zombo's Mock Cleveland Brown Draft (WWZD)

    1.1 Sam Darnold, QB, USC

    Went two spots later to the NYJ. In Dorsey (and Baker) we trust!

    1.4 Saquon Barkley, RB, Penn St.

    Off the board at #2 to Giants, him being there at #4 was just a boy and his dream...

    2.1 (Trade Duke Johnson to move up into late first round) Josh Jackson, CB, Iowa

    Went Pick 45 to Green Bay in the second round ... So, we got a much higher-rated corner and we kept Duke!

    2.2  Sam Hubbard, DE,  Ohio St

    Went Pick #77 to Cross State Rival Bungles ... Eh, we love Ogbah ... and we got that Miami dude.

    2.3 Brian O'Neill, OT, Pitt

    Went pick #62 to Vikings. We got a more versatile guy at #33 ... Dorsey is kicking my ass.

    4 Equannimous St. Brown, WR, ND

    Went Undrafted ... Signed by Packers, we steal Calloway in 4th round ... Dorsey has officially put me to shame.

    Don't be so hard on yourself... Packers drafted him with a Compensatory pick in the 6th, so you only reached by two rounds. Some here had us taking him in the 2nd.

    The INDIANS bullpen is in disarray since Miller has been out plus do they miss Shaw? (YES!) The CAVS can sweep Toronto -and- Cinco de Mayo is over!

    There are a million other Browns related things to hash....no need for a rehash of the draft. 

    Go back 5 years and redo that one.....it would be a better, more interesting....if useless geture.
