  • i don't think any of these guys deserve first round rankings except bortles and manziel because of the 'it' factor. but if we draft carr in the 20s i got no problem with that nor should you. he's not a guy that you're going to start over hoyer unless he blows the lid off in TC and preseason.

    picking a QB at 4 means he's starting day 1. are you comfortable with any of these guys doing that?

    i sure as hell am not.

    I agree I wouldnt want any starting day one unless they fully deserve it, but I disagree they'd be forced into that role with Hoyer on the roster.

    see you are making a lot of people's argument for 'us' then. if it's gonna be a project guy (as in sit him for a couple of years etc.) why do you need to draft a QB at four? or even with our second pick? hell, why not wait until next year to get the guy we all know farmer wants anyway?

    There aren't many QBs ever drafted that are day one starters, if you expect to win. Hoyer is intriguing but you cant go into the season banking on him working out. We have a win now roster, and imo were in great position to add our QB of choice now. We'll find out how confident Farmer/Pettine is in Hoyer by how long they wait on a QB. You can never wait till next year for a QB. Way too many variables. He could blow out a knee, go before we pick, not come out, completely suck.....you just never know. I certainly hope that were not in a position to get a top QB next year.....do you?

    your 2nd point first: hell no. i think it would be demoralizing to an up and coming team. i expect big things this year.

    BUT (to your first point)

    if they pick a guy at four, don't you HAVE to start him? i mean that used to be the theory. every highly (first round) drafted QB in recent years has started day one. we can go down the list but we don't have to.

    that's why this year's crop of 'highly ranked' QBs scare the shit out of me and i wouldn't pick one at 4, but that's just my opinion. i tell you what if we don't fix the problem on the right side of the line any QB we have might not last to see game 16 and that might be more demoralizing than a losing record.

  • The best way to tank for Mariota would be to draft one of these top 4 and start him day one. Guaranteed High pick in 2015 with any of these top 4.

    i hear you and agree.

    but i don't see 'tank' in anything about farmer and pettine. if they draft a guy and find out through the TC and preseason that he's the real deal, start him. if they find out he's a colt mccoy get ready to belly-up next year and be all-in on either mariota or hundley. i'm sure by this time next year there'll be a couple of other names being bantered around as well.

  • This mock has us taking David Carr at 4, and I can't believe it.

    If we pass on all of those guys, I may pull my hair out.

  • The difference between a mock draft and an asshole? You only get one asshole, but every asshole can have multiple mock drafts.

    I am sick of mock drafts.

    The worst thing the NFL did was to move back the draft....just 2 or 3 more weeks of this lunacy.

    Tell me what happens in the real draft....they we will have something real to talk about instead of everyone just contemplating their navels.

    My thoughts exactly if we pick him...

  • it's not the only mock i've seen the browns taking him at 4.

    he might be their guy but it'd be dumb to take him there. i could see a trade down to switch places with a team in the bottom of top ten or early teens, get another pick and move up to mid teens.

    i wouldn't take any of these guys at 4.

  • I dont even like carr at 26 if they take him at 4 id puke

  • I think the reason they would take him at 4 is they are scared Oakland would take him at 5. God I would be so mad though.

  • most of the mocks have us taking bridgewater and i'd puke if that happened, especially if mack is on the board.

  • I'm not pro or anti Carr, but if the Browns are set on any of the top 5 quarterbacks, they have to use their first pick to assure themselves of getting them.

    There's no way in hell 5 QB will go before the Browns pick again at 26.

    If that happens. I'll leave this board forever.

  • I've been thinking of doing one more mock....

    and every time I try, it goes in circles, doesn't make any

    damn sense, and I give up.

    My best guess is, they draft Mack if he's there.... or trade down,

    and nab C. J. Mosely.

    With all these mock drafts apparently involving every combination

    possible, at least one may be partially correct. And that's the experts' mock drafts.....

    Meanwhile, Canton Mike called, and said the Browns draft party won't be

    held this year at the stadium, because of construction.

    They don't know where it will be yet.
