<![CDATA[How likely, now, do you'all think it is, that the Browns trade down from #2?]]>If Josh Cribbs said is correct, the Browns want to bring in their own young guys and develop

their team, for the most part, of guys who want to be here.....

and the free agents bolted for $$$$ and wins...

and he says the Browns should trade out of #2, because the top two qb's aren't

stay at #2 qb's...

how likely do ya think that will happen? and how far would they trade down? and How far

down, given that it would be a great return of picks?

could eventually turn out to be Elway II ?

Doesn't have a horseface though.... just read that in some mock.

We are losing a lot of players, some of our best, and we won't be able to plug every hole in one offseason. We will need more draft picks in the future...and high ones. I'm also starting to see more and more mock drafts that have us taking Jalen Ramsey at #2. I've been clammoring for this a while now as a viable option to taking a QB at #2 IF our talent guys don't give Wentz or Goff a high enough grade. Generally, corners/safeties aren't taken this high, but this draft appears to me as low on high end talent, and Ramsey is NOT a normal player. His stats might not be eye-popping, but he's killer against the run, a ridiculous athlete, and can play several positions. He'd basically be a new toy for the defense and we could experiment with him. I'm NOT saying he will be Troy Palumalu, but I am saying that's the kind of player I see him as. Rushing the QB, covering deep, and supporting the run. Oh, he's also got his shit together OFF the field too.

Another option...one I don't see happening...is for us to take Ramsey (or someone else) and then trade back into the first round for a QB. Goff and Wentz aren't going to slide, and I don't favor Lynch AT ALL, but perhaps Cook (I know...not my fav) or someone else of his ilk. I don't see us giving up resources to trade up, but who knows.

And then there is the Kaepernick situation. But the thing is...Kaepernick doesn't seem better than a healthy McCown, right? But I guess that's the rub, as McCown hasn't completed a full season (I THINK).

I don't think we trade down. I think we keep the pick and turn Joe T in to another 1st round pick...I don't see the point in keeping him, his value it at the top now. Turn him in to a pass rusher. Teams already neutralize him by putting their best pass rusher on the other side.

Trade Joe T if we want to get better.

Yes, I would almost guarantee that either Wentz, Goff or Lynch will be there at #32. Spend our #2 overall on a player that makes the players around him better. Get Bosa, Jack, Ramsey or even Tunsil. Please, I'm begging the F.O., please do not take one of these QB's at #2 overall... Unless it's Andrew Luck or Peyton Manning, which these guys are not.

You also think Manziel is a good at something other than being a drunk.

You have to think these things through.

I agree. Goff doesn't get past SF at 7. Wentz and Lynch won't make it past the Bears or Rams.

The Cowboys have Romo, they will likely pick up Manziel despite what they are saying now. They will draft Bosa if he's there, they won't burn a first on a QB.

Chargers have a small window to try and win this shit with their boy Rivers, they will draft playmakers on offense or defense to try and capitalize on what they have now, at least in the first round.

Patriots do not have a first round pick this year.

Giants aren't taking a QB in the first they have the only Manning left still playing and they need defense.

The Saints have the same deal with Brees, small window on Drews career and they need to add a piece in order to have a chance, no way the burn a first on a QB.

Cardnails are close, nearly won it last year. They'll add an offensive weapon not a QB.

And if Pittsburgh takes a QB in the first... I'll laugh my ass off. They need so much more than taking a QB in the first to ride the pine. But by all means, burn that first round pick on a 3rd round talent.

Goff and Wentz are Brady Quinn and Brandon Weeden.

So, what are you saying....Yes, there will be one of those QB there at #32?

Who is taking 3 Qbs? If we pass on one of them - I don't think both Goff and Wentz and Lynch goes before the second round... who is taking all these QBs if we pass. Id wager that if the Browns pass on a QB it sets off a chain reaction and only ONE, if that, goes in the first round. What teams NEED at QB that bad that they would burn a first round pick on one of these guys over the abundance of talent available in the first round?

Lynch could be good in a few years.... if he's there at 32, I'll be shocked.

and I think Kaep is just playing the Browns to get a good deal from Denver.

We already have a veteran qb that wants to be here, is a great teammate and mentor,

and threw for 451 yds in a game vs the ratbirds, I think it was.

But....is Denver asking him to take a pay cut as the Browns are? Denver was not offering the pick the Browns were....which was the holdup there iirc. They want a 2d rounder out of Kaep. Too much.

Is Kaep's agent asking for the same concession from Denver: no pay cut...as he is from the Browns?

Come April 1 and he is released, is it all moot anyway....except for the cap hit the Niners must take?

yeah i didn't mean it literally, just busting someone's balls.

if i were the browns though and he was sitting there staring at you and you hadn't picked a QB yet, just keep looking down the player list and wait until next year.

i wouldn't touch that yokel with a 10' pole.

I'd still have him on the roster today.

Richardson is making a comeback.

Mack was selected to the probowl for 2 different positions.

Carr is a Franchise QB.

Mathieu is an all-pro.

I made the best of Manziel. Hard to defend him when he's such a dumbshit, but hey, he was our QB. He's not anymore. It's sad to me because he could have been something special... and to see those fall from grace, from having the world on a string... that brings me no joy.

I'm still behind Gilbert though, somebodies got to pan out. I think Danny will be good for a long time. I don't know about Cam Erving. Hope he has the 'want to' to fill Mack's shoes.
