How do you accidentally tweet that anyway? In my experience, accidental tweets only happen when you're drunk.

 

Is Albright drunk?

Suspect he got an immediate angry call from his source.  The Browns want to play this closely for some reason.

I assume the Browns are trying to cause confusion and try to drive up the price for 4.

Often holder of #1 pick will negotiate ahead of time with player they will pick but this leak could cause them to lose leverage and loss of leverage if they are trying to trade #4 pick as well.

The rookie wage scale pretty well sets the contracts ahead of time.

most recently he broke the news that Mayfield was in play for pick 1.  then it was reported by espn and others the next day.  he's also reported that Josh Rosen is completely off their board as well as the Broncos board.  he was also first to shoot down any of the 3 team trade scenarios.  i haven't been following him for too long but he has a pretty good track record apparently.  very reliable.

 

 

Except, of course, that two of those things are unknowable (whether or not Rosen is on a team's board), and the other two have not yet come to pass.

 

So I'm just askin', of anyone else if not you - what is his track record?

Allbright sticking with his sources, expects it to be Darnold, Barkley, Mayfield, Chubb.  not 100% lock but a good idea that this will be the case.  when asked what the Broncos will do at 5:

 

 

so the Bills trade up to 5 in that scenario with Allen and Rosen available to them

Darnold to Cleveland at #1 is a best case scenario for the Bills if you buy the earlier rumor that Darnold is the only QB that the Giants are interested.  If Darnold were available, they would draft him, if not, they would draft a non-QB (presumably Barkley or Chubb.  That would leave two QBs out of the top 4 still available after Cleveland picks at #4. , and that gives Buffalo a few more options about where they might trade and who they might target.

I actually think (just my own speculation) that Darnold is #1 on the Bills board, not the Giants. And if he’s gone at 1, the Bills will not trade to 2. If he is, they will pull that trigger and it could be that 3-way trade. If he’s gone, they will go to their next guy, and pull the trigger if he’s there at 4.

If this is the scenario, this board is going to lose its mind when the Bills pass on Rosen for Josh Allen.   I still think Allen goes #1 but I guess we will see.
