njbuff Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 You know what guys................. Taylor might actually be what the doctor ordered for that Cleveland franchise. He doesn't make mistakes and the Browns can groom their young QB's (Kizer and a draft pick). I think this works out VERY WELL for both teams. What do you guys think. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I agree 100%. He stops the bleeding there and they have tons of weapons. It would have been nice to get Gordon instead of the pick :). They will take Allen I bet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I’m surprised that people are surprised with the return. They got a 3rd round pick for a guy that won more than half of his starts and never turns it over. That is about what we all should have expected if we took a step back. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Boo Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Barring injury, the Browns are going to be competitive next year, there's no doubt about it. I have to think the team is starting to look attractive to free agents with the roster, cap room and remaining picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrod can be cut for zero dollars at the start of the league year by the Browns. So to recap. $71M GTD QB got a 3rd. $0 GTD got a 3rd. Beane killed it. Your take is wrong here.

Yes it's an upgrade for Cleveland, but they had no other direction to travel. At some point though, the Browns will be forced to throw the ball to win a game and their fans will understand the issue.

LABILLBACKER Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Tyrod will struggle just as much in Cleveland as he did in Buffalo. Same weather, same poor mechanics and tendencies. I wish him all the best but he'll play it safe like he always has and the Browns will be kicking themselves for giving up #65. If he's a bridge qb it will be a very short bridge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even IF TT got $18M GTD, thinking we'd get the same pick the Chiefs got for Alex Smith is crazy. Because Alex Smith cost a third to a team that paid him $71M. He's paid like he's 3x the QB, and we got a BETTER pick. Edited March 9, 2018 by jmc12290 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Awesome! Can't believe we got a third. I must admit I serverely undervalued how much he could get. I definitely gotta eat crow on that so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Alex Smith cost Fuller and a mid third, then the market for a QB like TT was set at 4th-5th, IMO. Getting the top of the third is incredible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
