They're in a situation where they can have their cake and eat it too. (draft a QB that won't play AND a blue chipper that WILL play)

DON'T put the cake in the freezer and trade down. PICK the blue chipper and eat the cake! Please!

For what more draft picks? They're loaded with picks now that they will have a tough time finding spots for. Quality not quantity in 2018.

Maybe trade up? Dump some of the 10 left?

......oh yeah congratulations again on the Miracle on the Hardwood tournament, exciting finish, tour was already planning his victory speech and parade .

I think the whole "Dorsey doesn't draft RB's that high" is overused. He's also never had 2 picks in the top 4 nor has he had a chance to draft a back like Barkley.

He sure has had the opportunity to draft a back like Barkley, not top 10 in stats and became "THE GUY" after a good workout at the underwear olympics

Allen at #1. Trade #4 to Buffalo for #12 and #22 plus several more picks . The Browns will have 2 starters from day one and a QB that will sit and learn for a year.

Or Allen @ #22 where he belongs. We can trade up into the round to get there. Keep #4.

That would be the appropriate way to acquire Allen...

I dont think we take a corner that early ........

A GM's draft and team building philosophy usually doesn't change team to team unless there is other-wordly talent available.

Barkley ain't that guy.

Certainly reasonable. I still see the trade down at #4 as viable as it can land you in the primo DB and LB value area.

He'll be trading that blue in for orange in about a week- don't you worry about that

Hearing it was a gift from the Giants, looks like a little false hope that he'll fall all the way to #2

Got $100 that says the Browns don't take him at #1.

Thatta boy! My biggest worry with that scenario of Barkley 1st is it would allow the FO the chance to say we didn't take Allen 1st overall. Then we gag watching 2 way better QBs than Josh Allen get drafted prior to hearing his name selected by the Browns at #4. This allows a few teams drafting after us to take much better QBs as well. IMO, Allen at #4 is a much bigger Russian Roulette than Barkley at #1. Having said that, the Silly Season Sensation has been destroying every defense without pass rushers, DBs and LBers he's faced indoors this off season. Now, he's the next Kyle Boller moving on up because of how far he can throw the ball in spite of disappointing completion percentages.

We can't keep messing up these 2 picks in round 1. The last time we got both picks right was in 1978 with Ozzie Newsome and Clay Matthews. Coincidentally, the 80s became the the decade we made the playoffs most frequently in the last 40-50 years.
