2018 NFL Draft Thread

Yup

You do know that Sashi Brown (the one known for accumulating draft picks) is no longer the GM and the John Dorsey is now the GM and is NOT known for stockpiling picks.

I forgot they fired another GM until today. Still its great strategy. We're the Browns! Admit it Bills and Cards, you can't be 100% sure that we aren't crazy enough to draft 2 QBs.

Schefter saying the growing belief is that the Browns will take Mayfield?

I think they are taking Darnold and I think Dorsey is telling different people in the organization different things to see who is leaking stuff.  Everyone is leaking stuff, which is why there is a new QB they are taking each day.  It's Game of Thrones in the Browns front office.

Starting to think you might be right

Too bad for him too.  It's a weak WR crop, he could have been the first one taken.

on a similar note, listening to sports radio here in ttown they've been saying ridley will be the top wr taken most likely, and maybe only 1 in rd 1.

ridley is good, but i don't think he's #1 wr, though i know few other wrs in draft. if he is, this is a very weak wr group. i wouldn't draft him in 1st rd, maybe late 2nd. he's not amari cooper and certainly not julio.

If NFL teams were Houses in GoT, the Browns would be House Tully.  Someone else's bitch, causing problems, no power of their own, and their only importance is their location in the greater landscape of things.

Whichever one is most likely to be a complete and total bust that flames out after about a half a dozen starts, that's the one that the Clowns are going to pick.

as is tradition

The Browns are an illustration of what a franchise looks like when the front office is run entirely by public opinion. 

"We want the back up QB!" 

**put in the back up QB**

"This guy sucks! Get him outta here!" 

**QB gets benched, released**

Wash, rinse, repeat.

Ya know over 8 seasons 1950-'57 the Browns appeared in the NFL Championship game 7 X going 3-4.Losing to Surprise the Lions 3X.They also won in '64 and lost in '65 - last NFL CG before the Super Bowl.So they went to the Championship game 9X in 15 years going 4-5.Of Course My dad,uncles & brothers all caught up in this.Every year Cleveland  was 1-2-3 in attendance.I saw some good but not great teams.I remember Chris Berman talking about Paul Brown's teams.What has happened has been a complete lack of common sense and focus.NE Ohio has always had very strong football bonds.Betcha didn't know Akron won the 1st (what was to become)NFL Championship.Then the venerable Canton Bulldogs won a couple back to back shortly after.Then the Cleveland Bulldogs won.The NFL's 1st five seasons 3 N.E.Ohio teams won 4 of the Champioships  .Chicago won the other one.I don't like my favorite team losing but it pisses me off to no end that GM's & coaches have walked away millionaires in the process

I don't get closing the book on Kiser already.  Go get two solid pieces to pit around him.  I think he can be a top 12-15 QB like a Russell Wilson or Kirk Cousins.  That's good enough to win if he's still on his rookie contract like the Seahawks did.

Do you guys get email/text/calls during/after the draft from your NFL honk friends asking for your opinion on such and such guy that their team drafted?   This can get annoying.

I'm thankful to not have any friends like that. I used to...

Purdue usually doesn't have any players drafted high enough to get attention from any friends like that I *do* have.
