posted by iclfan2Why’d they hate Randall? Shut down Gordon, and was arguably one of their best cbs? I’m good with what we gave up for what we got looking at it as a whole. Blow this dumpster fire up.
He was pretty inconsistent in GB
With Taylor in the fold, would not be surprised to see Barkley at 1 and BAQ at 4
This is the pick #Browns acquired for P Andy Lee in trade with #Panthers. Lee is now with the #Cardinals. So CLE wound up getting Jarvis Landry for Andy Lee and a 2019 7th-rounder.
Pretty "meh" on the Taylor & Randall pickups but it should definitely be a lock they are taking a QB with either 1 or 4. Perhaps the best part is that it looks like the AJ McCarron ship has sailed.

Fuck that. Qb at 1.
I've seen some grumblings on Twitter that Sashi set all this up and now isn't around to enjoy. I don't remember the logistics of every Browns transaction made the past few years so idk if that's true. What do you guys think?

I think the Sashi argument is dumb. Dude came in, made some money, and got fired. Fuck all of them

Not sure how any browns fan could possibly come away from this upset.

Landry and Taylor should be enough to make Browns get over the hump in some of their close losses. Landry a possession guy that is very low on yards per catch but should be a nice match with Taylor.....if Gordon can be the downfield guy the Browns could’ve a much better offense with more scoring opportunities and abilities.

Agreed.
I'm bullish on the Randall pick up, Greenbay twitter is upset, played great against the Browns.
I think the Browns finally have a GM that gets it. went out and got three good players and still have plenty of draft picks. Good job so far.

we'll see, but it wouldn't upset me as much as it would have 24 hours ago...just sayin'
btw, this excitement excites me as well... https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/browns-players-react-to-trades-with-shock-and-happiness-on-twitter/ar-BBK46v6?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartandhp

As long as they still get a QB and not reach for Barkley and Josh Allen.
Someone else on twitter pointed out that we got most of these trades for less than AJ Mccarron trade last year. I’m fine with the cb for Kizer.

I could be wrong, but isn’t Josh Allen a QB?
After all these trades I’m really starting to think the pick is going to be darnold or mayfield and I’m leaning towards mayfield. Taylor is the perfect QB for baker to learn behind. Similar skill sets with baker having the stronger arm. I would be happy with mayfield at 1 and Fitzpatrick or ward at 4
Looks like Shelton will be the next one to go. Maybe to Seattle for earl Thomas?
Sorry, but imo, Mayfield would be a huge mistake—he’s just not a good fit. I like Darnold/Rosen/Allen, and with Taylor on the roster, any of these three could flourish under his tutelage. That being said, and again, because of Taylor now being here, I really want Barkley. I think this would give us the run game threat we need to open things up for our receivers.

A qb will still be taken number one. Look at Dorsey’s history with QB’s. Mahommes day last year, Rodgers sat behind favre. Taylor is just a bridge qb for a year to let the rookie sit and learn the offense. Honestly it’s a great move by Dorsey. Plus Dorsey doesn’t value RB’s. Especially not at number 1 overall. You gotta remember Dorsey took hunt in the 3rd round last year and he did pretty damn good for KC. I see no way he drafts Barkley at 1 or 4
I also wouldn’t be surprised to see them trade a late rd pick for spencer ware either

All of this makes good sense
These QBs all confuse the shit out of me. I now trust this FO to do the right thing, so whatever QB they pick at 1, i'm cool with. We now have the privilege to be able to sit our top QB behind a serviceable QB for his rookie year. I'm a big fan of that.
I do think we sometimes forget that we need a lot more talent on defense. Because of that, Minkah or Chubb or Ward would be my pick at 4.
Fitz or Chubb at 4 for me, with fitz as my want. Guice and Michel aren’t that far behind Barkley and you don’t have to waste a high pick either. This draft is loaded at rb.
