CB Sam Beal worth a 2019 draft pick?
-
Well, obviously we didn't even pony up our 3rd rounder.
HOPEFULLY, this year, we're not talking draft in October...like the last couple of years.
-
Someone explain to me, a scenario, where a team that got zero friggin' wins last year wouldn't get first dibs..........
Somehow in Good-hell's weird football rule book? Browns picked 4th in supplemental draft due to lottery.. No news on if we even threw the same 3rd rounder that Giants would have won due to supp. draft order becoming...Oak.-Jets-NYG-Browns-Denver... https://www.ohio.com/akron/sports/browns/an-eventful-supplemental-draft-ends-without-browns-making-pick

Yeah, after reading the article, saw how the Giants jumped us in the supplemental draft. Didn't know they reshuffled the order. Going on record, the Browns should have had the first pick in each round.

...and, of course, it makes PERFECT sense that the team that couldn't win ANY football games the previous season doesn't get to pick 1st. - Ya know what would be better? Is if they gave the superbowl winner the 1st pick. There'd be all kinds of players trying to position themselves for the draft. They could sell tickets...and beer...

The picks are the same as was the regular draft. There is no secret here.
The draft itself is more like a auction. If a team likes a player, they make a bid via fax or text to the league office. It's not like everybody is gathered in some room. If we like Beal, we bid a selection. Say we offer a 2nd rounder for him, we get him as long as no other team offers a 1st. If other teams offer a 2nd, we get him because we drafted first in the regular draft.

I mean, in this system that would never happen. It took me a good bit to wrap my head around it but essentially boils down to three groups
1) non-playoff teams, 6 wins or less
2) non-playoff teams, 7 wins or more
3) playoff teams
Each one of these three groups is then "put in a hat" and given a draft position based on the random selection of that group. For example, the Browns group had 11 teams that met the criteria. The Raiders as I understand with a 6-10 record actually "won" the lottery and got first pick each round. It is NOT like the NBA draft where the Browns would have had the most names in hat, each team had one equally. We got drawn 4th based on that system, and the the Giants were given 2nd and therefore got the guy. Hypothetically, we could have been 11th in this system very easily.
Now if you wanna argue that it was rigged somehow (a la NBA draft), well who knows. There are some pretty credible rumors we had the 3rd round grade on him so we just missed out,
-
4.61 40 as a CB? Underweight for his height?
Dodged a wasted pick since it meant 2nd round to get him.
Rather hang onto that.

A) I get the grouping, as a attempt to keep league competitive. B.)how bout each team in group gets 1 paper in hat per loss?

Me too. Wonder when the media will get to how many teams bid a 3rd? that's his worth imo. Started as a WR, with not much experience at CB position.Watched Beal against Darnold, and the normal showed up.Beals can press cover,but when he loses, A) his team gives up a bunch of points B.) Beals stats are not great but his 1 on 1 coverage numbers are. Tough to guess on his next step up level..If BB Calhoun sticks as 4th/5th CB? we missed on nothing here imo..

Sure, I mean what you're describing is essentially how the NBA draft lottery goes about it. Who knows why they don't do it that way, I've looked for a reason and haven't found much.

Should the NFL go to a system like this for the regular draft so as to avoid "tanking"?
Yes as soon as the Browns move out of the cellar. ?

The league is catching up with us! J.Gordon is now freed from rogers hit list.Now all the refs can do is throw a flag for tackling him running open down the field. Maybe Roger can call it the Flash Gordon rule ?

Nah. The reason tanking in the NBA is so effective is that parity is almost non-existent. We know going into the season what teams are gonna be good and bad, so from the jump teams are already in tank mode. The NFL has way more parody, and way less games, for that type of system. The NBA does that in part so a team like the Cavs (let's be real) don't totally tank from day one, although it doesn't work well.

Did you mean parity.....or were you making a parody of the NFL's parity?

Come on Gip, NFL teams do tank- they're just less obvious about it.
Can you agree the Sashi Browns set the bar on tanking?
EDIT: How fast we forget the Colts "Suck for Luck".
