T. Prior would be nice. A less known free agent, Eli Rodgers would also be nice. Bring back D. Thompson. Plays bigger than he is and has some speed. In terms of draft, Chark from LSU.

I'll "trust the process," but I want Rosen or Mayfield. I think Bean has a QB or 2 in mind and they will work to get that guy. If that guy is not available for whatever reason, I'd be fine with Vea or a LB and going w/ McCarron (seems like a lot of due diligence was done on him) and a QB later in the draft. Plus, we can always trade 2019 picks for Foles post-draft. Ideally, we get a QB in the top of the 1st round, and a DT like Tim Settle later.

Not at all. All I'm saying is stick to the board. Don't chase a QB you don't have highly ranked because you "need a QB." They go after Rosen or Mayfield I'll be happy. No offense taken man! That's what this board is here for, to discuss and debate. Nothing else to do this time of year in terms of pre-draft process. I like McBean, whoever he gets I want to succeed. I just don't want him to "panic" into taking someone. And I don't get the idea that he is that type of GM.

Yeah he plays OG as well. I agree with you we need a G/C. Here is info on Ragnow. I've watched neither, so I'm trying to read-up on the available centers now. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2018-nfl-draft-prospect-rankings-frank-ragnow-is-the-top-center-in-this-class/ That said, this guy has an interesting take on his other top-guys.

I think we both agree in going after "top prospects," identifying those guys is difficult. For me, they are Rosen and Mayfield. Darnold would be okay at 12. Allen, no way. I'd have White, Falk and Rudolph above him on my draft board, IMO.

Not fear-based at all. Reality-based. You can't sell the farm to get a QB with a lot of question marks. Look at Washington, sold-out for RG3. How'd that end up. The guy they took in the 4th that year--Cousins-- is now the highest paid QB in the league. When teams get cute by "reaching", usually fails. Takes more balls, IMO, to stick by your draft board and not overpay. I'm not saying they shouldn't move up, but they shouldn't panic (e.x. "oh my gosh, Rosen and Mayfield are gone, lets go crazy after Darnold or Allen). You trade a lot of draft picks away, you can't build a "team." You build a "team" like the Eagles did, and you can win the SB with an average guy. And Wentz was on a tear, but he had a great team around him. Or you can have Cousins, and no team, because you sold-out like Washington. Only QB's that I think are worth "going after" are Rosen or Mayfield. Mayfield could even be there at 12.

Ben was a much better prospect than Allen. But I will be very disappointed if we grab Allen because he has a "big arm." This is like grabbing a WR just because he has a fast 40 time, IMO.

or they could overpay and end up with someone like David Carr, Leftwich, Collins, Harrington, etc. While watching Smith or Edwards dominate for the next 10 years. I think they have 2 QB's potentially they would "overpay" for (Rosen, Mayfield hopefully). The rest they wont'.

If it's Josh Allen, then PASS. I'd take LB Smith or Edwards over him. Then grab Mike White or Falk in the 2nd or 3rd.

dude, I'm not a Boomer. FYI. I'm the oldest of the Millennial bracket.

Would you take Price or Ragnow? I think Ragnow allowed 0 sacks the last 2 years. That said, I've only read about both these guys. Also, we need another RB. We have GREAT compliments to Shady, but we need a guy who can carry the load if Shady goes down. (Freeman from Oregon, Ballage AZ State, Walton Miami, Penny SD State, Pettway Auburn are all guys who may be available RD. 3 or later.

I love this. I still think we pickup a RB in a later round if one we like falls (Freeman Oregon, the guy from Miami). Or get someone in UDFA. I still have little confidence that any of these guys can adequately replace Shady if he gets hurt. GREAT compliment parts, but can one of these guys play 15 games as the starter??

Hey Ice Bowl. Nice pickup of Graham. I think the rumor is we are sending a 2nd for Rodgers I like the McCarron signing a lot. Could be the next backup turned star (Jimmy G. in San Fran). Or a career backup to whomever we draft. Ideally we end up with 2 great QB's. he's great when motivated. I have a feeling he will be more motivated in GB than w/ the Jets.

the injury history of concussions scares me. It's why I put Mayfield ahead of him. (Mayfield, Rosen, Darnold). I can see Rosen getting another concussion and calling it quits like Chris Boreland (can't blame him, i'd be his 3rd).

prob takes longer than driving. Trent's PED suspension bothers me. Is he still in the same shape? Guess we will find out.

the concussions are very concerning. Main reason I'd go Mayfield over Rosen. But I'd be fine with Rosen. Only 2 QB's I see as potential Day 1 starters.

Is Eifert still available? He'd be good for a few games until he gets hurt.

Yeah, this lasts until the draft when there will be a "competition" with the rookie. On the other hand, it would be very Cleveland to draft Allen #1, which would be fantastic for a number of reasons.

I hear he was cleared for his pro day?

well, we do need CB help. Hopefully we get Gaines, if not, at least keep L. Johnson and grab another CB.

I think so. I'd nab him and Crabtree as FA WR's. Other interesting FA WR's (not on Bills): Eli Rodgers and Mike Wallace.

Crabtree would be a great addition. (1) he wouldn't be on the Pats***; and (2) as Cudi mentioned, he is a great route runner. I'd also like to resign D. Thompson.

I think it's a good idea. They need cap space to go after Honey Badger. They can draft a LB to replace Klein. And we can draft a LB to compliment/start ahead of him if needed. Would be a good trade, IMO>

wonder if he goes to PIT to play with his brother. I can't see his attitude being a good fit w/ McD.
