Ask yourself that question: Were you more pissed about the performance, or lack thereof of Trent Richardson or of Garrett Gilkey?

In this case it's probably more equal only because if we're drafting this guy to be the starting quarterback for X number of years and he's another bust, it still sets us back.

Plus we got a nice draft pick for Richardson.

Yea, you think these guys are Peyton and Eli rolled into one.

Well.....Blaine Gabbert and Case Keenum ARE starting QBs in this league. And they have both been around for a while....so maybe these guys are future starting NFL QBs....of that quality.

Some services that I have seen still put Connor Cook on the cusp of 1st/2d round. I know I have heard all about him from all y'all about what a bad guy he is.

But...at #32?

Though, I suspect that he will go to one of those teams that have a QB approaching the 35 year old mark...in a later round...and that he will become their project QB.

If he's a bad project and a bad guy what the fuck's the difference if he goes number 1 overall or the bottom of the seventh round?

If we're going to take a QB, it needs to either be an unquestionable 'QB of the future' or a project we can stash for a while. None of this 'well he could be great in the right situation' business we've had so much of.

There are none of the former in this draft class. Sorry.

If it is to be a stashable project.....it would have to be a later round pick. You don't use #2 on that.

And now Gase is gone, he will likely revert to form, the form that had the bears trying to trade him for nothing.

Every team may take somebody on a flyer project.....but I am most interested in which would make a serious heavy investment in a future QB in this draft.....like a first rounder, second at least.

My thought process being: if by some chance the Browns pass on a QB with #2....is there a chance that one of say the top 3 candidates: Wentz/Goff/Lynch....could slide to #32?

It seems to me that the Broncos would want to continue to win now....and that they won't turn that team over to a raw rookie. The Niners and Rams however certainly/likely would. If by chance ONLY those two take a QB in Rd. 1....then a guy may still be there....unless one of these teams take that serious flyer. (most likely candidate as I see it: Cowboys)

In other words, who else besides the Browns are in the market for a first/second round QB?

Broncos may not have a choice..if they can't get Kapernick, they aren't going with Mark Sanchez. Niners and Rams are definite QB needy teams. I could see a team like the Cowboys trading back into the first round if one of the guys is still there in the late teens or early 20's just because Romo is old and fragile and they lost every game he didn't start last year. The Bears are another one who would take a guy and I could see the Chargers even trading next years #1 if they liked a guy bad enough to move back into the 20's to take a guy to sit behind Rivers for a couple years.

So to answer the initial question...I don't see a chance in hell of Wentz, Goff, or Lynch sliding all the way to 32.

Teams with immediate needs for a new starting QB in my opinion: Browns, 49ers, and likely Rams and maybe Broncos...and maybe Jets if Fitz walks.

Teams probably/possibly in need of a future project QB: Patriots (though have Garropolo), Cardinals, Saints, Cowboys...and Jets under any circumstances (unless you think Geno Smith or Bryce Petty fit that bill).

Teams that may want to give it some serious thought for the future: Giants, Steelers, Chargers

My belief is if the qb is there take him. If you have to reach then it's a better chance to get a bust. Or luck plays in with the choice along with chance.]]>https://brownsboard.com/post/587594https://brownsboard.com/post/587594Tue, 15 Mar 2016 22:07:27 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to Who else may be in the market for a starting QB on Tue, 15 Mar 2016 18:37:45 GMT]]>

When I say would take a QB, I mean is someone like Goff/Wentz fell to their second rounder they'd not hesitate (like Rodgers).

Except, there I would be perfectly willing to grab one of them with our #32 pick...and not let them drop...if we didn't take one with #2.
