I get asked about anybody, not just Nebraska.  They know I sit and watch college all day on 3 TVs, so surely I have an opinion on some Mtn West TE.

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.
Kizer was making school yard decisions repeatedly with his throwing.It was odd his two best games from a mistake perspective were the 1st & last games of the season vs Pittsburgh.Browns would have have beat the Steelers,Kizer threw a beautiful pass inside the 10 and previous 1st round pick Corey Coleman drops the ball right in his hands.Way too many times throwing into horrendous traffic.It's common sense if 3-4 defenders are on one guy others are open.Whether he doesn't see the field or just panics and rushes his throws he had time to throw over all.He led the league with 22 picks

happens to me all the time

I'm more than a few guy's "phone a friend" when it comes to football

if I only knew a 3rd of what most of them think I know

I'm decent with Husker football, but severely lacking on all other subjects

Kizer was definitely a turnover waiting to happen. That said, Hue did him no favors. Never adapted his offense to the players rather insisting the Kizer adapt to his offense. Kizer had no chance to develop and get better with Hue's play calling.
Hopefully Halley is going to have control over the offense and Hue is just a "manager". Personally if the choice was between Sashi and Hue, I would have fired Hue.

Browns with a very Browns draft.

Mayfield is a gamble at #1 overall and Ward is a good player but #4 seems really high. Chubb would've been the better pick.

I agree,Mayfield couldn't outrun that fat cop.I agree also on Ward he's only 5'10" but talented.Chubb would have been a game changer

Yeah, my friends know I can give a blurb on just about anyone in college football.

I know Cleveland is going to Cleveland but what were the Giants thinking in passing up on Rosen? He would've made for a perfect successor to Eli Manning and his confidence fits well in the obnoxious NYC sports market. Stoked Rosen fell to the Cardinals.

I don't profess NFL expertise, but when the Browns take a QB at 1, you kinda think he'll bust.

Sony Michel was a good pick.

First time three Dawgs picked in Round One.  I see Bama had 4 picks, which is why Bama is good.

The Browns front office is filled with morons. They waste the #1 pick on Mayfield. They could have taken him at #4 as he still would have been there. The smart pick would have been either Barkley or Chubb #1 and then pick a QB at #4. Between Darnold, Rosin and Mayfield, one of them would still be on the board.

Personally, I see Mayfield as this years Johnny Manzel. Many of the same flaws. I knew the Browns would go after him, that is what they do. Find the biggest head case in the Draft and make them their number 1 pick. Winslow, Manzel and now Mayfield. It's no wonder they are 1-31 over the last 2 seasons.

From 11 Warriors:

Giving the Browns two picks of the top four picks is like handing your divorced buddy with bad credit $500 before entering a casino.

That pretty well sums up the Browns.

I think Mayfield is less likely to bust than Manziel, but still fairly likely.  Manziel was a 99.99% bust.

Browns = epic fail.

At least they grabbed a Buckeye.
