They got the same picks back, actually the Bills got a better pick. That's CRAZY. Expand Tyrod is getting $18M. The Chiefs also got a good young player. It’s not crazy at all.

Nihilarian Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Good stuff for both teams and now I only hope the Bills didn't shoot themselves in the foot by drafting the wrong guy or bringing in the wrong guy as a bridge.

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. Expand 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.
Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Has to be something cooking 1) for a free agent QB 2) likely move up in the draft
LABILLBACKER Posted March 9, 2018 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

A guy that could have been cut this week?!? Come on jmc, you are better than that. I’ll bet you my 401k he gets at least $18M guaranteed. On 3/9/2018 at 11:21 PM, GunnerBill said: They will go 6-10.

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
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 I'm really starting to warm up to beane. been a long time since this franchise has had anyone competent in charge. 1

There's no way you go into the draft like this with teams knowing exactly what you will have to do.

If they were willing to commit to a QB they should have given that deal to Cousins and kept Fuller and the pic.

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. Expand First pick in the third is about a round and a half better than I thought could be gotten for Tyrod. I admit it
MrEpsYtown Posted March 9, 2018 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

If they were willing to commit to a QB they should have given that deal to Cousins and kept Fuller and the pic. Expand It's similar to our market conversation the other day. 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
