LogicIsForSquares Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 I'm not sold on Mitch at number one but should he drop at 12... WSS Yeah I wouldn't be pissy about Mitch at 12. At 1, I would be an unhappy camper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted January 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 I'm not sold on Mitch at number one but should he drop at 12... WSS If you would take him at 12 you may as well take him at 1, because he won't be there at 12. And there is far less of a dropoff in talent at that edge rush spot than there is at QB...meaning, you can get almost as good a player at that spot at 12 as you can at 1, (but, imo....you can't do the same at QB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballpeen Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 If you would take him at 12 you may as well take him at 1, because he won't be there at 12. And there is far less of a dropoff in talent at that edge rush spot than there is at QB...meaning, you can get almost as good a player at that spot at 12 as you can at 1, (but, imo....you can't do the same at QB) I don't agree with that at all. We have the first friggen pick. The last thing we need to do is reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggins7919 Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 The Browns are rumored to be interested in Tyrod Taylor. Many fans already speculated on this before the article this morning, and it does make a ton of sense. Tyrod doesn't set the league on fire, but he doesn't turn the ball over and he's durable. He also plays the style of game that Hue likes. Wouldn't surprise me if we signed Tyrod Taylor, cut RG III and McCown, AND traded for Garoppolo. Laugh all you want, but the race is on for a QB. Some way or another, I'm willing to bet our QB room will look completely different, with only Kessler being the only holdover. As far as the mock drafts go, I think Garrett is by far the best pick available at #1. I don't even think it's close. Just so happens that he fills a TREMENDOUS position of need for our team. Ogbah would've had about 6 more sacks if he played with a pass rusher opposite of him, as many times he got solid pressure only to see the QB drift away from him because there was no defender on the other side. Our #12 pick is where it gets foggy. Today, my favorite pick is Reuben Foster from Alabama. He'd be an enforcing linebacker that would pair nicely with both Collins and Kirksey (I'm saying we WILL re-sign Collins...we WILL.....). There's no telling if Foster will even be there at 12, and many analysts are currently saying he won't be there, but who knows right now. If he's not there, I'm totally fine with picking our highest rated CB on the board. My crazy pick at #12? How about Dalvin Cook, running back from my alma mater. He's nasty.

The Gipper Posted January 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 I don't agree with that at all. We have the first friggen pick. The last thing we need to do is reach. Except, again, we have no clue what a "reach" is. As I said elsewhere, every pick if a risk. And, can it not be considered that not taking a pick that you desperately need is also a "reach".

And, can it not be considered that not taking a pick that you desperately need is also a "reach". Maybe we don't, but every rankings I see has Garrett firmly as the top pick. Trub is ranked all over the board. Some have him as a 2nd round pick. Now that shows maybe people don't know abbout him. This isn't to bash Trub. Don't overthink things. We have a player how is very solid in his rank, and he is also at a position of need for us. It's a no brainer. The only way I don't draft him is if I don't move down more than maybe 5-6 slots in a trade and I pick up a boat full of picks. I'd take a swap of picks, a first next year, a 2nd this year, and a 3rd next year. I see next years QB class as better than this. Load up the assets for next draft so we can move up.

ballpeen Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 I'll be beyond pissed if we draft a running back in the first two rounds. I don't want to draft a RB at all. Crow and DJ are solid. I like George Atkinson. I think he will be good and we pick up that Jackson kid off the Dallas practice squad. He is going to be good. If we need to go in to camp with more, sign a few UDFA and then wait for camp cuts if we still feel we need a 5th back on the roster. If your O-line is any good, nearly anyone can be a decent runner. When I say nearly anyone, I am talking about players on NFL rosters or in their camp. I am not talking about you, I or anyone else on the board.

With so many needs on this team, yes, if the Browns get an RB, they could pick up a FA....or a UDFA and be fine in my opinion. Get us a line in front of these guys we have and they can make hay.

Zombo Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Kiper's mock came out today. He had us taking Garrett and the the FSU RB at #12. Had Trub going #2 to SF and Watson #10. Seems to be a lot people thinking we will trade (Grop,Taylor, Mccarron) as opposed to drafting at QB. Who knows, I think it is too damn early to tell.

Garrett may be a no brainer, but how many times have we heard "next year's qb class is better than this one". Happens almost every year. So we take Garrett and another defensive stud, finish maybe 5-11 or 6-10, and lo and behold, there's another Andrew Luck sitting there for the taking at #1. Too bad we can't get him, because the qb needy team sitting at the pole position isn't listening to any offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombo Can anyone explain how the 49ers need for a QB is greater than the Browns need? They have Kaepernick....maybe, and Gabbert. The guys we have are not as good as those guys. I mean, wouldn't all of you rather have Kaep over the guys we have on our roster now?
