    Most mocks from people I think are good (and not the ESPN hype machine) have at least two qbs going in the top 15.

    I agree. Erving is the problem with the o line. He's god awful

    Erving actually had a good game last week, but he has looked like a high schooler in other games. Have to just hope he is starting to turn the corner. Cooper is another one who finally looked good last week. Reiter looked good at center when he was in

    Oh?

    Didn't say he wasn't a dip shit some times, but he had some solid blocks and not falling over 5 yards behind the scrimmage. It's the fucking browns, small steps.

    I think consistency is his main problem. He'll have one good play followed by 2 mediocre plays and one absolute WTFF play.

    The chance the Browns ...
    • Win 3 games: 1 percent
    • Win 2 games: 11 percent
    • Win 1 game: 44 percent
    • Win 0 games: 44 percent

    18 percent chance of winning at Buffalo (13-point underdogs)
    36 percent chance of winning at home vs. San Diego (5-point underdogs)
    13 percent chance of winning at Pittsburgh (16-point underdogs)



    Still hope!
  • Sonofanump
    Yep, I thought the home game versus San Diego might be the trap game to prevent the #1 pick.

    WHY would any fan want them to win a game at this point?!? This baffles me. We lose the tie-breaker for #1 with 49ers. As long as they have 1 win...the Browns shouldn't win a game. Don't give me that moral victory stuff, they went all in with stripping the team to it's core to do just this...get the #1 pick and rebuild. Don't mess this up. Get the BPA which looks like Garrett, then go from there.

    I think the Browns are in a fine position regardless of having the 1 vs 2 pick. Especially if the give them a top 10 pick. I want a win, because there are a lot of young guys on the team and it would be nice for them to know that they can actually win in this league. It's not the end of the world if they don't though.

    I have a decent feeling that one of these QBs are going to drop to the 2nd round, and give the Browns a decent value pick. At this point I am sold on taking BPA.

    I do agree about the QB into the 2nd scenario. I feel like they may get trigger happy though and take a QB with that Eagles pick.

    Who would you take #1 if they had it, also #2 if they didn't get the 1st (assuming Garrett goes #1)?

    Garret easily for #1. Not sure on #2, whoever the fuck the Browns have as their second best player on the board. I like Jonathan Allen. We need everything, but QB pressure is the worst.
  • iclfan2
    I think hoping for one of the top 3 qbs to fall to the second is a terrible idea if they "really" want one. Settling for whoever is there is what gets us jack shit for 2 years and then a new qb. I especially don't want Watson. I'd be ok with Allen at 2 if we screw up and win a game. If they aren't sold on a qb then I am fine with bpa at all times

    I agree with this. I do not want Watson though, he sucks and will be the guy that drops. Kizer, the UNC and the guy from Texas Tech will prob go first round.
  • SportsAndLady
    I think we should take a QB with every pick in the draft, find out who the franchise QB is, and then go from there.

    And Watson is like 6'2" 210. No thanks.

    I think we should trade for Gino Smith.

    Not sure who that is, but GENO smith sucks. But he's better than any QB we've ever drafted in this millennium.
  • iclfan2
    I'm hoping it was sarcasm that he would actually want to trade for him.

    I believe Jackson knew this coming in, that is why there is little pressure regarding wins on him this year and next.

    Wasn't that the joke that fw and br always called him Gino?

    Rgiii is so terrible. He ran out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage to lose 4 yards instead of throwing it away. He has no brain

    Didn't want his 30% completion percentage to go down
