<![CDATA[#4 Trade Down Talk]]> This is the scenario that I have heard discussed more than once on the radio and TV:

Browns take their QB at #1

Giants take Chubb with #2

Jets take a QB with #3

Then what do the Browns do?   They wanted Chubb at #4...but if the Giants nab him.....they are not willing to just settle for Barkley.  Dorsey don't want no RB in round one.....so....the do the trade with Buffalo:

#4 for #12 and #22.

And with those they get combination of maybe  CB,  OT, DE........guys like Tremaine Edwards,  Denzel Ward if he is still there, McGlinchey if he drops, Jaire Alexander, Marcus Davenport.

It would NOT be a total surprise if something like this happens...at all.

Picks at #4 since 2000

Fournette

Zeke

Amari Cooper

Sammy Watkins

Lane Johnson

Matt Kalil

AJ Green

Trent Williams

How many "studs" or "blue chip" players on that list...?

But also  Duds like Aaron Curry, Gaines Adams, Cedric Benson, OT Mike Williams, Peter Warrick.

But you also left out some other studs:   Phillip Rivers, D'Brickashaw Ferguson,  Justin Smith

 one concern on Ward, he's 5'11". my bigger issue he is only 183 lbs.. sure he can vert. the high of 39". but can he do 38" with a 6' frame at 196lbs. with same arm length like Josh Jackson? I. Oliver has a full 2 1/4" longer arm than both.(33 1/2").pick our slow death..Ward can run with A.Bryant at 4.32? or J.Jackson/Oliver 6 ft. 200 hundies bang some big boy WR's around at 4.5 speed? Not reaching,but getting any of the 3 is the real trick😉  

I get that, gum, but Ward's speed makes it more likely that he is in position to use that Vert. to contest a high throw.

Hearing Browns will trade 4, but only when they are on the clock, not before the pick and they don't want to go down too far.

The Browns have had only two top-five picks in the last ten years.  One last year and one Trent Richardson. And that's while being the worst team in the NFL.

I wonder why they continue to suck.

It's very likely they can nab the top two players on their board at one and four.  Worst case? Two of their top three. 

Take the phucking picks. Don't be stupid. 

Butt, butt, butt the Browns have a reputation to maintain.🥷

I think the idea of trading down #4 is getting warmer.

hate the idea of trading down..several BPA sit at #4.just Make the pick & stop passing..Dorsey(who was reported as going to church at 8am) has drafted 6 CB's,liking 6 fts. weighing 190lbs.'ish. ..Marcus Peters was the slowest at 4.53. Also dorsey seems to like Vertical numbers with longer arms at CB position.Josh Jackson,Alexander,I.Oliver seem more his style.. can we continue to play smurf's at CB with the size of our divisional WR's & TE's? 

I picked Oliver for the Broncos in our draft just for those reasons. I like him better for us than I do Ward. Maybe @ #33 especially if we move up for a RB end of the 1st.
