    It’s fine. You believe your link, I’ll believe mine. And even IF yours is closer to the truth, what a loser Jackson is for “settling” for a 2nd year qb who threw 28 tds to 7 ints for the highest scoring team in the nfl.  What an idiot!!!

    Browns RG3 was nowhere near Redskins rookie RG3. He had been figured out long before that.

    [checks Browns schedule]

     

    hes 0-4 and fired by October 

    Come on, we play the Jets week 3!

    To be fair, it's reported that Hue has multiple media outlets that he leaks info to (which is the whole basis of the tweet in the first post), so it could just be a case of hindsight correction.

     

    I assume Peter King is one of them - the others, harder to guess maybe? At the end of the day, I would take everything (even my own opening post) with a grain of salt. But still, fun to speculate!

    Yeah, leading up to the draft it was reported over and over th at Jackson loved Goff but wasn't sold on Wentz. When St. Louis traded up for Goff, Cleveland traded down.

     

    Mike Silver is good buddies with Jackson too and it's rumored Jackson leaks stuff to him and others a lot.

    As the clock ticks on Thursday night, the Giants pick gets less and less valuable.

     

    5 premium draft picks for Barkley.

     

    3 1st round picks, and probably a 2nd and 3rd as well, or a great RB prospect. That's the question.

    The pick gets more valuable as time goes.  Once the Giants are on the clock, there are 10 minutes to hammer out a deal. Either teams overpay, or the Giants take Barkley like they want.  I'd trade, but they aren't really pressured to, yet Buffalo has made it clear they are all on a QB. Time will tell whether they overpay or not.

    I think I'm in the opposite boat. Take Williams or McGlinchey at 12 and the best remaining CB (or potentially another EDGE if they slide, like Davenport or Landry) at 22

    None of the OT are good enough for that high. Take Ward or Fitz and honestly I'd maybe take OT at 22, but I may wait for 33 or 35 as well. Or take Ward/Fitz at 12, Hughes/Alexander at 22, RB at 33, and OT at 35. Brown has great tape and horrible combine. Could be a steal.

    I'm not a big fan of Miller would rather have Vander Esch at 22 or trade bk with Cleveland for #33 & #35 . Take Connor Williams and Sony Michel with those pks. Cleveland would make a deal at this pt if Mike Hughes, Jaire Alexander or McGlitchey is still available 

    33 or 35 and 64 maybe, not 33 and 35.

    I think the Browns will draft Chubb or the OG from ND at 4 even if Barkely is still there.  They can get an elite defender or OL and get a running back later.  

    This scenario then allows Denver to take Barkely and would still leave one of the top 4 quarterbacks on the board at 6.

    Cleveland's last need is a guard. They have 2 very good, highly paid guards.  It's Chubb, Barkley,  or trade down at 4.

    Full disclosure. I had to let google refresh my memory on the details after your post. Ditka traded his draft for the 5th pick and the 4th pick was Edgerrin James. WTF? Memory fades and I just had it in my mind that they traded their entire  draft for #1.

     

    And then after passing on all the picks, the Browns took Couch over Donovan McNabb. Let's hope the Browns do Brownian things again this year and it benefits the Bills...however it all goes down!

     

     

    Couch could have been a good QB, he just got no help and a line that couldn't protect him at all. Manning probably would have sucked on that team.

    Hearing Darnold is the Browns preference at 1 (not a stretch) and Chubb at 4 if he makes it there (ditto).  The 3 way trade is actually a possibility and would result in the Browns taking Mayfield at 2 (after Darnold going 1).  Darnold is also the only QB the NYG would take at 2.  Otherwise it’s Chubb or Barkley.

    If Darnold is #1, just take him.

    Another fine example.   

     

    To be honest, I know very little about the QBs and NOTHING about anyone else.   Don't know who Chubb is, where's he's from or what position he plays.   I at least can answer those questions about Barkely, but nothing beyond that.    I just can't get interested.   It's enough to know there are possibly four and maybe more good QBs in this draft, along with the usual two or three super-studs at other positions, guys who would be going 1-2-3 if EJ Manuel were the best QB in the draft.   

     

    In that kind of a draft, you're going to see exactly what we've seen and will continue to see.   Moves to get into position, and speculation about a lot of other moves.   The Bills, beginning with the Chiefs deal last season, have put themselves in the mix.   The Jets made a great move to 3.  The Browns, of course, set themselves up beautifully.   The Giants have a tough decision to make.   Broncos seem to me to be a big wildcard.   

     

    For fans whose teams are in the mix, is interesting, crazy, fascinating and fun.  

    Now that's a really interesting point.    If the Browns win big with their two first-round picks, their cap situation in four years gets very complicated.   They'll have a $30 million QB and a $20 million running back to deal with.   

    That's not how it works though. The 4th year option is based on the 10 highest salaries at your position,  not by draft slot.  The QB would garner a ton of money but I doubt Barkley would be $20 million. Either way, that 4 years of great play to figure it out.
