    Don't forget it's also only december. In previous years Geno Smith, Teddy Twatwater and others have been locked in number one picks until a bad pro day, or bowl game, or combine or whatever.

    Nah man, Trubisky is the best player to ever play the game of football, haven't you heard? He's a QB and he's kind of from the greater Cleveland area. We should be trading up to the 0th pick to get his ass.

    so what are the legitimate chances that we select garrett and he declines it and asked for trade immediately?

    Ag has guaranteed he'll be great for us, so must mean he'll sign with us.

    Scratch Derek Barnett off my first round list and as a premium pass rusher.

    Next up, Tim Williams tape.

    Your Picks:

    Round 1 Pick 1: Myles Garrett, DE/OLB, Texas A&M (A+)

    Round 1 Pick 4 (CHI): Mitch Trubisky, QB, North Carolina (A+)

    Round 2 Pick 1: Christian McCaffrey, RB, Stanford (A)

    Round 2 Pick 15: Adoree' Jackson, CB, Southern California (A)

    Round 4 Pick 1: Daeshon Hall, DE, Texas A&M (B+)

    Round 5 Pick 31: Daniel Carlson, K, Auburn (A+)

    Round 6 Pick 1: Donnel Pumphrey, RB, San Diego State (A-)

    Your Future Picks:

    2019 Round 1 Pick

    I like this draft. I solved problems. I got skills and talent. mic drop

    I got Garrett's teammate Hall, he made plays as well. I think that with a front of Nassib, Shelton, Hall flanked by Ogbah, Collins, Kirksey and Garrett would be lethal. Back em up with Haden and Kindred at Safety, put Jackson and Taylor at corners... we'll have a strong D, with a lot of other players returning from injury. I mean you could even keep Haden at CB and put Jackson in the slot for a while. We found a good player in DKindred, he reminds me a little of Ward. We could try and pick up a FA Safety to cover the other slot or see if Campbell can take it.

    Offense is sick looking. Our Oline will recover next season... Our line will look ages better with Trubisky's dual threat and quick release. Our WR triple threat... GORDON! Pryor and Coleman will finally materialize. RB group of Duke, McCaf and Pumphrey will be to quick and fast to catch.

    And we got a legitimate contender to hold Dawson's jockstrap.

    It's what I didnt see. His first step lacks explosion, kid plays heavy footed.

    No ability to dip and bend getting under and by the tackle. Also saw no strong bull rush to compensate.

    Makes decent enough use of his hands, stacks and sheds well enough. But if this team is looking for a pass rusher first and foremost, he ain't it.

    Thanks for the insight. I hadn't watched the kid so I wanted to know what the hangup was.

    I'm looking at WalterFootball and Charlie Campbell has got us:

    1. Myles Garrett (DE/OLB)

    9. Mike McGlinchey (OT)

    33. Gareon Conley (CB)

    50. Marcus Maye (S)

    Two questions:

    1. What does everyone think about us skipping an offensive lineman and stocking up on stud defensive players? I wouldn't mind grabbing Marlon Humphrey (if he slides to the 9th) or Jamal Adams as opposed to another OL. I know that this draft class is loaded with defensive backs, but why not og after the two best ones? Humphrey looks special.

    2. Charlie Campbell has Tim Williams at 27, and he questions his ability to be an every-down backer/end. Isn't he the more reputable one vs. Walter?

    I'm happy skipping OL in a weak OL class, given our *relative* depth at the position.

    Plus... and this is simply based on history... I think there will be at least one hidden, OL gem waiting to be mined on Days 2 and 3.

    I know, at least between myself and you, this has been a theme for the past couple years.

    In that time I've seen these value picks bloom so I'm on board with day 2 or 3 lineman.

    But to ignore the OL completely if it's suggested...? Not a chance.

    Me qb #1, BPA defense with the Eagles pick, and BPA o-line with either of the second round picks.

    FA....FA....FA.....

    Im hoping the Browns decide to sign someone this year.....and OL would be the perfect place to start to avoid a repeat of this season and also avoid the inevitable growing pains of a rookie(or 2) on the OL.....which would(again) be a repeat of this year.....
