How's that worked out for us? Maybe tonight's George Costanza approach will be the ticket...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasAg1969 Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Drafttek scored us a lovely Stormy Daniels (double DDs) 1 Cleveland Baker Mayfield Oklahoma QB Reach/Value: -10 Height:6'0"Weight:210 Every time I think Cleveland can't out-Brown themselves, they do prove me wrong. Incredible how often that tends to involve a quarterback. It isn't that I don't think Mayfield can succeed in the NFL. I am just not betting on it over Sam Darnold. Mayfield's pathological need for attention isn't making me feel very confident with egos like Jarvis Landry and Josh Gordon on that team. I don't like it, but I am willing to admit I was wrong when he proves it. Wish I could be more optimistic but that's the best I've got. ~ Austin Smith Grade: D 2 Danzel Ward CB OSU I was going to use this space to keep complaining about Baker Mayfield but then this happened. Are you kidding me? This has got to be the most bizarre form of evaluating talent that I have ever seen. They took two players that were not valued in the top 5, in the top 5! Are they spinning a wheel in the Draft Room? What is going on? This is beyond my ability to explain. I get the need but the value is awful.

jrb12711 Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 I think Ward is going to be a good football player. With that being said its really hard to not have that gut feeling this will end up being another total draft miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those so called "experts" have rated our drafts very high the last few years, so I cheerfully accept low grades from them. They've proven to me they have no credibility. Our true grades on this draft will be more apparent in 2-3 years. I am also glad we kept our 2nd round picks. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The browns are getting crushed everywhere else. Actually we have to wait until the entire draft is in to see the master plan and what will work and what might not. Last year they got great grades and pulled an 0-fer season. The BROWNS overpaid in R1 they could have rebundled the picks and got their guys with more top R1 and R2 picks....but now we wait for September.

Browns1216 Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 well, the Browns have "won" the draft the past few years and it didn't pan out, maybe now since they "lost" the draft they will win where it counts. I'm not worried at all about either of these two players. I don't get people saying Mayfield has a big ego, he is nowhere near JFF. I'm pretty excited to see what he can do in the NFL. He was a college QB who was able to elevate the team around him to play up to the level of his opponents (the Ohio State game is the one that most readily comes to mind) and that is exactly what the Browns need. He's also a guy who is willing to put in the hours to study film and learn playbooks, something JFF definitely was not. Of course, he hasn't taken a single snap in the NFL yet so the jury is still out, but I have high hopes. I was hoping the Browns would pick Fitzpatrick at #4 but I can live with it. I can see why they skipped out on Chubb, maybe Ogbah is healing nicely so DE wasn't as glaring a need as secondary help. Denzel Ward was the top ranked CB heading into the draft, and CB is a spot where the Browns desperately need help so I can't really bash this pick at all. Every year after the draft I am optimistic about the Browns' chances, at least their record can't get any worse than last year's....right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'm not a Mayfield guy by any means, I've said on this board 100 times that the idea of not taking the guy you think is going to lead your franchise at QB #1 is downright moronic in thought. There's zero way to know what the Giants and Jets would have done if we took Barkley instead of Mayfield. It could very well be the Giants or Jets were sold on him, or the Cardinals were chomping at the bit to move to #2 if we didn't take the guy. QB is the ethos of a football team. You don't risk getting the guy you want in the situation the Browns were in, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Buffalo Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Lets be honest, who gives a Sheet about what these pundits think of our draft. They have given us B to A grades the past 5 years, then those draft classes have proceeded to put us in a position to go 0-16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
