    Pick #12, who fucking knows. So many areas of need on this team, most think they'll sit tight and take BPA. Some think they'll bundle this pick and some other assets to move up and draft a QB. If you're asking me, they'll take BPA available at 12 and call it a night.
    Agreed with this as well.

    Garrett at #1. BPA non-QB at #12.

    That's is the best case, I think we see a QB at 12 though.


    FWIW all the pundits very close to the Browns are 100% sure Garret is the first pick.

    ✔ @RuiterWrongFAN I believe Myles Garrett will be the pick at No. 1 & #Browns trade up from 12 into top 8 will be for Jamal Adams or Malik Hooker not a QB

Hell, between Lerner & Haslam, the Browns have pretty much lost a generation fan base. Most of the idiots here in NE Ohio are letting their kids root for the Steelers.
    Truth :(

    I'm okay with this depending on how much we give up to move those 4 spots.

    It should be less if it's not for a QB.

    Would a 4th rounder do it?

    This has to be one of the most unpredictable drafts in recent years. Everything stems on the Browns. Usually you can guess the first 5 picks or so but a lot seem wide open currently.
    I am hoping the Trubisky stuff is just to make teams focus on what the Browns are doing and plan for something that will never happen. They will be taking a qb at some point in the draft, hopefully it's not 1 and only 12 if Hue wants someone available then.

    Depends on how far they move up. If it's from 12 to 5, I think it would take more than that.

    Mike Silver back on the Garrett train after pimping Trubisky all week.

    The so called draft experts are becoming comical with their flip-flopping. As a Browns fan you just have to believe that the front office has a plan and will finally stick with a plan.(I believe this). Last year's draft was a step in the right direction. Now they have to have a good draft this year. (I think they will).

    GO BROWNS!!

    Browns will have to move into the top 3 for Jamal Adams, not top 8 lol. He won't last past chicago.

    This is a somewhat random rant, but also related since it is the draft. Can people STFU with QQing or mocking the Browns about not drafting Julio Jones? That was a GREAT trade, however Heckert fucked it up the following year (t-rich/weeden) in a loaded draft class. For those who bring up Julio, what QB or defense would have led Julio the SB? The playoffs? Just for reference, during Josh Gordon's pwnage, he only had 200 yards less than Julio and 1 more TD. Not to mention, Josh also played 2 less games. The Browns had 4 wins that year. Just STFU with the Julio shit. He wouldn't have led the Browns to any better seasons, and he most likely would have bolted for another team at this point.

    ESPN actually reporting that the Browns are taking Garrett based on sources to Shefter. Treating it as breaking news vs. a rumor article on their website.

    May or may not be Browns related but in news of the strange & odd, WR prospect Corey Davis has said that the first thing he will do once he signs his contract is buy his sister ass implants. LOL

    I'm by no means a Patriots fan but this is why I was rooting for them in the Super Bowl.

    Up until the game, all I heard was "shoulda kept Gabriel", "shoulda kept Mack" and "shoulda drafted Julio" from all of my revisionist history Browns fan friends. Was glad the Falcons crashed & burned just so I could give those whiners the old eff you.

    We should've kept Mack. We can blame farmer for that. Regardless Mack still wouldn't lead us to many wins, but at least it's one less hole to fill.

    Edit: btw, this same from your post is why I will always root against Carson Wentz :RpS_lol:.
