Left Tackle - Flugel Faves and Hopefuls
-
nope, I don't see trading up. But if Thomas could just fall to the Browns, THAT would be OUTSTANDING !
-
Great...but no guarantee he will be there at 10. And I don't know if trading up is in the cards.

If you don't think that Andrew Berry would be beyond trading up for something he really wants...it is YOU who are missing the obvious...about that guy. Don't think it will happen, but with Berry...I would not put it past him.

Point was, Gip that you said absolutely nothing in the Capt. Obvious inducing post and then followed it up with another.
Care to go for three in a row?

Is your head really shaped like a triangle....since that pin at the top is so very sharp.
I will explain it to you like you are a 4 year old...which, mentally, is about right.:
Both statements are perfectly accurate: I doubt that the Browns will trade up....because they do not have the ammunition I believe to afford to be able to move up....but....despite his demeanor and background, and apparent conservative nature....I would not necessarily put it past Andrew Berry to be a bit of a gambler and take that risk.
You know, they have this place called Las Vegas, where they do a lot of gambling...including on sports. They have these things called "Odds"....and for this proposition they would set odds. On this I suspect that the odds would be like 9-1 against the Browns making a trade....but there is always that one out of 10 chance. So....the explanation for your 4 year old intellect is: while it is unlikely...there is still that 1 in 10 chance of it happening, so you cannot "put it past" it happening.

I'll take that as a "yes".

Yes....to the question: are you using a knowledge and understanding of history here? As a predictability factor: If the 2007 NY Giants played the 2007 New England Patriots 10 times, the Pats likely win 9 of those games..... But "don't put it past the Giants to pull it out" And lo and behold when the actual game occurred...that crapshoot rolled a 7.
Doesn't one of your "draft sims" ever simulate the possibility of trades happening? If so, probably in 9 out of 10, they simulate no trade action by the Browns......but....there may be that one time where.....lo and behold, you wouldn't put it past it to see the Browns make a trade.

That's 4...
Can he string 5?

Yes I am saying that I’m acting like an adult contrarily

Let me know when you have finally convinced yourself of that.
The stuff I cut and pasted from you on my previous reply slam dunks otherwise. More specifically, you're not arguing with me - you're arguing with yourself.

I just did.

If you didn't want to engage in an argument with me....why then did you bother to make this post that was argumentative? Hello!

Blew thru 5 and 6... albeit with a little goose from Flugs (well done, sir)... working on 7.

Back to the thread....which can be summarized in two sentences: Which Left Tackle should we all want the Browns to draft?
The one that the Browns scouting department thinks is best that is available when their turn comes.

We are all making too many assumptions that our scouting department likes all of the top 5 tackle prospects: Wirfs, Thomas, Wills, Becton, Jones (consensus top 5). I see these mock drafts from experts with comments like the Browns take the 3rd or 4th best available tackle.
We may only want Thomas or Jones and pass on the other three if available at 10. I would not be surprised if we like 2/3 of the above and if they aren’t available we pass on the others and take Best Available of the defensive side of the ball.
The Backup plan could be I guy we’ve identified later in the draft or Trent Williams. There is some nice depth at the tackle spot in this draft- Steele from TTU.
the other plausible solution is to trade up for the guy they want. I don’t see any of these tackles as “elite” but who knows.
I like Jones from UH and Thomas from UGA in that order. I’m not crazy about Austin Jackson. Becton and Wirfs seem like awkward fits.
-
Andrew Thomas is the starter choice of the choices at left tackle, I think.
The season before, Jones was really raw compared - but improved dramatically last season.
They both love the game, are quick and very strong, excellent character, play with a mean streak...and are very, very SMART.
My impression is, Jones needs a good bit? more coaching up, Thomas not as much. We need a starter. Either of these two would be a great thing in fixing our offensive LT position.

Who said I didn't want to? I didn't need to. You were already arguing with yourself. It would have been rude to interrupt you vrs you.
While I appreciate you trying to give me all the credit for being argumentative, the inventory clearly shows you arguing with the most people (including yourself).

But, if that is the way you felt... clearly...you DID interrupt.Why did you feel the need to pile on where it seemed that there was something you wanted to move away from? Seems to me that the thread has move past all that/you. But, we will give you another chance: What move do you think the Browns will make there at LT (not what you would like...but what you think they will do).
