Best Case - Bortles

Hopefully, it's 1 - Clowney, 2 - Watkins, 3 - Mack, 4 - Bortles... that way people can't b**ch about passing on any of the 3 "studs," but instead just accept the fact that we need a QB head-and-shoulders above anything else, so with 4 more picks in the top 100, why not risk it??

That would be nice, but there's no way Bortles makes it to #26. He'll be the first QB off the board, I'm sure, and there's no way a QB doesn't go in the top 15. The league is too quarterback driven for one not to be taken early. Look at EJ Manuel last year.

You have to love the draft I have going on here for the Browns now then. I grabbed Bortles for us at 26 and gave him Robinson x2 to help out. That being Greg and Allen

Best Case Scenario: Clowney/Mack/Watkins/(Evans maybe)/Robinson

Houston: Clowney

St. Louis: Matthews

Jaguars: Bortles

Browns: Manziel

Worst Case:

Houston: Manziel

St. Louis: Watkins

Jaguars: Clowney

Browns: Mack or any OG/OT

Worst case. Something similar to a Browns draft from '99 to '06.

Watkins has been a consensus #1 WR since last season.

Although I've got a sneaking suspicion that Farmer will call out...........Carr at #4. Either at #4, or at whatever spot Farmer trades back to in the 1st.

HA!

don't ever bust PoG's balls again.

bortles and manziel are the key players in this draft meaning where they go will dictate a lot of everything else that unfolds. we all know mack and clowney will go top 4 or 5. what we don't know is where the 2 best QBs will go.

I'm doing this in response to POG.

Too often are there people on here who hitch their wagons to sinking ships, or however the saying goes. I'm doing that but in reverse.

I hitched my wagon to Bortles a long time ago, well before he was even mentioned in talks about this draft class, and damn it I'm sticking with it.

Worst case- anyone else

If we could somehow have Clowney at our pick so we could trade back Id be happy.

I don't see it possible for him to be there at 4, but going along with the scenario...him there at 4 is my best case. He's a guy someone would give up their 2014 first and second rounder, and 2015 first rounder for, at a minimum. If we made a trade like that I would spend all season rooting against our trade partner, hoping to get a top 4 pick again next year.

I agree that the Clowney, Mack, Watkins scenario is the worst.

i personally see houston taking clowney. isn't he the 'consensus' (hate that word now) no-brainer pick?

Yes... if (insert team here) has gotten past Clowney's motivation questions, then they will take him at the first opportunity.

@comeonman said:

oh man, that would be highly unlikely but very interesting. Do you take Clowney with his immense talent, or take an awesome trade offer......hard to pass on him

I think clowney would be much better suited to 4-3 DE than a 3-4 DE. Regardless he is a supreme being of talent. I'm glad I'm not making these decisions for the browns because I am so torn between a variety of approaches we could take to this draft....

#1 Clowney

#2 Robinson

#3 Manziel

Worst case :

#1 Clowney

#2 Watkins

#3 Mack

Clowney is the best case for us but there is no way he is available at #4.

St. Louis selects Charles Lindhberg

Jacksonville selects Lynyrd Skynyrd

Ha Ha you might be right there, or we could trade down to Atlanta - Personally if we can somehow end up with Clowney I will be doing cartwheels.
