if we wanted to draft a college qb tgat was nfl ready day one, we wouldnt have drafted mayfield.

Actually he and Rosen were probalbly the most NFL-ready QBs of this draft. Mayfield had a Sheet-ton of college starts. Darnold really should have gone back for one more year. Allen should start hitting the broad side of the barn in 3-5 years.
I'd still love to see Mayfield sit for most/all his rookie season though.

Tyrod is on a 1 year deal. You have to throw all your support behind him and hope he plays lights out and deserves year 2. There has to be a team leader and the QB is usually it. You dont want half the team in camp Taylor and the other guys in camp Mayfield. Taylor has won NFL games and taken his team to the playoffs. Get behind him in this offense now run by a post season OC.
What happens if Tyrod has a probowl season and the Browns go to the playoffs largely because of his play?
Kizer looked great in camp and beat out everyone else. Everybody looks like a world beater in camp and then faces reality when the real bullets start flying in the regular season. Preseason is hor$ehit and winning every game makes you pre season champions.
Kizer looked like $hit to me in Camp.. I didn't see anything special about him.. He had slow eyes from the start.. Mayfield is on a whole other level intellectually and in efficiency.. Kizer was supposed to be a poor mans Cam Newton.. Russ Wilson And DeShaun Watson did't sit long..I think Baker can be even as good or better.. If he displays character and great play,.. You play him sooner rather than later.... You don't draft him with the mindset of keeping him on the bench.. When you're drafted #1.. You're drafted there for a reason.. TT is 7 years into his career.. Now granted.. We supposedly have a good WR room... And I'm sure that will be a positive.. But Taylor is NOT the kind of QB who can create his own plays... Taylor historically has all of his games under 300 yards.. That's just not very convincing to me.. He's a game manager.. Not a stud...

Jumping straight to Mayfield would be a mistake.
Give Tyrod a shot in Haleys aggressive passing offense.
Everybody wants to see Mayfield play. I do. All fans do. Mayfield is the ace in the hole when needed. Hue is playing his cards spot on this time and not betting the farm on a rookie who looks good in camp. Camp is bull $hit. Tyrod gives the Browns the best chance to win. His Buffalo passing stats are night and day different than the Browns offense last season. The Browns are going to beat the Steelers opening day and Tyrod is going to be part of the reason why.

Its well thought out. Tyrod has training camps under his belt. He has started NFL regular season games and post season games. His 62% completion rate is nothing to ignore. I firmly believe that he will make guys like Coleman and Higgins better.

Exactly. Last year Hue was content to let a far less talented Kizer stink up the joint- so now, it's 180 time and play Taylor regardless. Sure, I have the opinion it's far better to have Baker sit and watch for at least 1\2 the season- OTOH, Wentz got thrown into the fire week one- and it didn't seem to phase him.
Sure, Taylor is in another league than Kessler and Hogan. But it was maddening to see Deshone get trotted out there last year week after week when you knew it was going to be yet another suck performance.

That was last year....with the worst QB room in the history of the NFL. It didn't even matter which bum he played. Might as well go with the young bum.
A year ago at this time I was saying how Kizer had a legit chance to win the starting job because the competition was so bad. THIS year we at least have a fighting chance that the veteran starter can beat out the rookie draft pick. That's what we should want. We don't want to have to prop Mayfield up there on opening day against the Steelers. That's turning up the pressure dial pretty high. Let's let the season roll on for a while........and ease him into the position. (of course, now that I've said that, Tyrod will trip and break his arm while exiting the tunnel on opening day)

http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/corey-coleman?id=2555333
Weaknesses
Does his best work from outside the numbers, but lacks desired NFL size to play outside. Allows cornerbacks to leverage him against the sideline on deep throws. Takes longer than expected to gear down for comeback routes after hitting top speed. Ran limited number of simple routes. Hands are a concern. Fails to catch away from his body. Dropped 10 passes for a drop rate of 11.9 percent. Loses focus and concentration on routes that work towards the middle of the field or when he senses defenders are closing in. Had sports hernia surgery that forced him to miss his bowl game.

Hey Numbnuts
From your link.
STRENGTHS
Instant blur off the snap. Feet turn over at a blinding pace and he devours cushion before cornerbacks know what hit them. Able to get over the top of every corner he faced and demands safety help over the top. Works back to the ball. Explosive leaper with ability to climb ladder and win the 50/50 ball and body control to secure the acrobatic catch. Touchdown maker finishing 2015 with 20 receiving touchdowns. Smooth, speedy stems to the post will be difficult to mirror and match for NFL cornerbacks. Easy route adjustments in space. Defenders who try to jam and miss pay the iron price (touchdowns). Able to make tacklers miss in tight spaces. Has experience as ball carrier and punt returner. Heavily targeted (39 percent) in Baylor's high-flying attack.WEAKNESSES

Rounds 1 or 2SOURCES TELL US
"He's my top receiver. Now this is for what we do so he's going to be tops for me. He can do a lot of things and I'm not worried about those simple routes because he's got some gifts to work with. Like him a lot more than (Laquon) Treadwell or the Notre Dame guy (Will Fuller)" -- AFC wide receivers coachNFL COMPARISON
John BrownBOTTOM LINE
Dangerous vertical talent with the ability to get over the top of defenders who fail to recognize his blazing quickness off the line of scrimmage. Coleman can get instant separation to create favorable passing windows and is one of the top playmakers in this draft. Coleman's issues with drops near the middle of the field could be a concern if teams see him next as a slot receiver due to his lack of size. Regardless, he can line up outside and win and he offers immediate punt return help. -

FWIW, Hue WANTED Brock Ostrich to be worth the time and money the FO wasted on him so he didn't have to gag on Kizer. I remembered hearing him say he wanted to go with a veteran instead of experience. During the preseason, Ostrich couldn't throw a football into Lake Erie from the wet rocks touching it. Kizer could only throw the ball over Lake Erie to Canada when we just needed a touch pass or quick out. It was pick your poison and live it. When we started Hogan, he had more turnovers than a bakery. That doesn't bail Corey Coleman out for dropping the ball vrs Pittsburgh. It was a 2 way street here where we had the worst WR Corps in the NFL working with the worst QB situation and what many deemed the worst OC.
So, we changed FO and got better choices at QB,WR and OC. Love hearing what Baker is doing with his new teammates and playbook. I think he's going to be great if we don't rush it. Keep in mind, he hasn't seen 1 opposing defense yet where he not only has to know our playbook but all disguised schemes/ alignments within the limited time he'll have for pre-snap reads. Aside from that, we will have a inexperienced LT that is built like a Guard and trained all off-season to face 330-350 lb DTs instead of the Von Miller. While I think Bitonio can settle in do a nice job - there's a reason he's expressed some concerns in spite of his willingness to put "team before I." All that being the case, I don't mind seeing Taylor begin the year as the starter especially if he continues his low volume of INTs.
IF Taylor disappoints, does Haley look like the kind of guy that will accept that for an extended period? He'll be swearing in 5 different languages in Hue's in ear at rock concert decibels.

So that was Kizer's fault? Dude can't catch, and can't stay healthy. It happens (cough Greg Little cough), and while he deserves a last shot he's shown very little at this point.

Hue keeps saying Tyrod is the starting qb, because the media asks him EVERY SINGLE DAY! I have listened to three post-game press conferences and every single day their is a Tyrod vs Baker comment. What is he supposed to do? He gets dinged if he answers the question and he gets dinged if he doesn't answer the question. I actually think this is the smart play. let people know that Taylor is the starter and go into the season that way.
This is not a Kizer situation where they want to "see" if Mayfield has it. Mayfield is proving he is legit (in shorts and t's of course so take it for now). But the Browns also know how much media scrutiny there is going to be especially with Hard Knocks around. They are going to slow play him as long as possible because they KNOW he is their qb of the future but they also know they need to win ball games. Taylor is GOING TO WIN some games. plain and simple. He is at the very worst a solid NFL qb. If the browns can get a little momentum and start to get the feel of a winning culture, especially early on, this team is going to start to play relaxed football. However, the opposite is true. If they start to lose early, and Baker is the starter not only will moral be down, but the questions of was he the best choice at #1. This is assuming he is playing well. Imagine if he is not playing well and someone such as Rosen or Darnold are having good starts to their careers? Jackson is playing the long term game and Dorsey is letting him go. Plus, this drives competition to the rest of the team as they are proving it does not matter where you are drafted, the best players are going to play.
(Side Bar, I really like most of these rookie qb's and think at the very least they are going to be solid nfl qbs. The more i think about it, Rosen was my favorite qb from a skills perspective but Baker is exactly what the browns need for this team. He's smart, has a swag, he connects really well with the fan base, and he is a worker. He may not be the most gifted, but he clearly fits the personality and the culture the Browns are building).

This is Dorsey's team.
He drafted Aaron Rodgers who sat. He drafted Mahomo who sat. He traded a high third for Tyrod so our rookie (turned out to be Mayfield) could sit.
Mayfield is under contract for five years, Taylor is under contract for one year ... we all know what is going to happen. But it won't happen this year unless A, Tyrod gets injured or B. We fall out of contention. Until then Tyrod is the starter and it makes perfect sense.

So that was Kizer's fault? Dude can't catch, and can't stay healthy. It happens (cough Greg Little cough), and while he deserves a last shot he's shown very little at this point.

Coleman caught the ball and the DB knocked it out.
Still Coleman has to come down with those and especially on big plays. Lets see what happens with Tyrod and Haley before throwing dirt on Coleman. It does not look good for him at this point, but rebounds do happen.

In what world did he catch the ball?
If you are saying this is a fumble, then it's first down and we were headed to 1-15 and 0-16 never happened.
