Report: Sam Darnold will wear a brown tie at the NFL draft

Latest I've seen is the Browns are picking Allen or Mayfield. Tomorrow night cannot get here fast enough.

Dorsey & Goettelman (Giants GM) are masters at this stuff. Everyone is guessing. Dorsey knew about 3 weeks before the draft they were going up for Mahomes and somehow it didn't leak. Had that have been a previous Browns regime, it would've been leaked and the Cardinals would've leapfrogged the Browns for Mahomes (assuming the Browns wanted him in that scenario).

BTW....the brown tie thing was tongue in cheek.

That’s exactly why I think the pick is either Rosen or mayfield and I’m really leaning towards Rosen. I saw an interview with the bills GM and he was asked about trading up or what the browns are going to do and he basically said no one in the league know what the hell the browns are doing at 1. And everyone is waiting on the browns at this point to make moves and such. If the pick is in fact Rosen, Dorsey has done an absolutely great job of playing the rest of the league. 

Breaking news: josh Rosen took a shit this morning and it was brown. He’s the next browns QB, folks!

Interesting take. Hopefully Baker Mayfield has been eating a lot of green vegetables lately.

He'll drop to you guys and be the best of the bunch.

Green beer actually, and it wasn't good beer.  He is like sleeper and also believes that bud light is the best beer and all craft beer is just a marketing gimmick.  Now do you want him to drop to the jets?

I have seen a couple of these reports and they all cite MKC.  If you are not familiar she is the biggest hack of them all.  You have to be desperate for clicks if you are recycling MKC material.

It's a day before the draft and everyone else has had their takes regurgitated to infinity, so it's time for her to take the spotlight!

She's been throwing out garbage for years. I mentioned these previously where one of her son's friends posted a fake story or Twitter and she ran with it as breaking news.

Ok, give me Rosen.

I’m starting to think it plays out like this:

1. Browns: Rosen/Darnold
2. Giants: Barkley
3. Jets: Mayfield
4. Trade w/ Denver: Rosen/Darnold
5. Trade w/Browns: Chubb + pick(s)

If the right QB is there, I think Cleveland plays Buffalo and Denver against each other, but ultimately goes Denver, even if they offer less because they want Chubb.

I could see this happening if all 3 QBs are taken 1, 2, and 3 as well, but less likely as Denver and Buffalo probably won’t have a bidding war at that point (if they both don’t like the QB left...Allen).

This would be the dream draft.  I can see the Giants taking Darnold if he doesn't go 1 though.

I thought that three months ago. 

Has it/is it going to leak out who the first pick will be for certain? I feel like in years past everyone knew going into the day who would be picked first.

Dorsey won’t tell a soul until Goodell announces the name.

At least there's some suspense to it I guess. I always hated when they announced Wednesday night who the #1 pick would be. 

Supposedly per Sam Wyche, Hue has now seen the draft board and Haslam has signed off. We all know Hue likes to leak things so who knows.

Yeah, NFL Network's Steve Wyche was in Berea all day. Confirms what iclfan2 said. Haslam signed off and blabbermouth Hue supposedly now knows all of the top guys, at each position, on their draft board. Wyche was asked who he thought would be the pick, if backed into a corner, and he said "Mayfield." First guy I've heard say this as everyone has been saying Darnold. Wyche reiterated that he has no inside knowledge, just a guess.

Messed up his name ha, my bad. 

In other news, Mayock hasn’t missed the first pick since 2008, he went Darnold today, for what it’s worth.

Sam Wyche can kiss my ass.

I'm starting to think the pick is going to be Mayfield. I'll be ok with Darnold though but not thrilled. Also steam seems to be gaining for them to trade down from 4 to land Ward later.

I think you just want it to be Mayfield lol. I can’t think of a way it’s not Darnold.

They turn in a card that doesn't say Darnold.

He does, and for the life of me I don't know why...it'll be Darnold, and I wouldn't be surprised in the least if they end up trading down...we'll know soon enough.
