BuffaloRush Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Listening to One Bills Drive interview with Ian Rappaport. When discussing QB’s, Steve Tasker seriously asks about the possibility of Cleveland drafting a QB with both #1 and #4. But not to trade one of th two but to keep them both on the roster to increase their chances of “getting it right.” After asking the question Kind of walked it back by saying “they couldn’t do this....could they?” Rappaport kind of thought it was crazy question, but essentially said anything is possible. I think the idea makes sense on paper, but the reality is they’d be carrying 4 QB’s on the roster. They wouldn’t have enough snaps to really develop both QB’s at the same time. Plus they would be passing up, as Chris Ballard would say , “premium” talent at #4. Id hunk you want to take 1 QB and double down on him, as opposed to trying develop 2 QB’s at the same time All in all, kind of a goofy question for Tasker to ask that surprised me.

reddogblitz Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 I predicted this last week. 1 Darnold 4 Rosen
TheFunPolice Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Well, it would be a way to make sure that you get a guy, unless both are busts. If you end up with 2 good ones you profit from the pick, since you'll get more than 1 1st for a great young QB. It would be cool to see.
White Linen Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 The only reason you would do that is if you thought it would help you in a trade during the draft - which it won't. Not happening.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Lamar would be ok as the second QB since Polian thinks he should be a wr anyway
Mike in Horseheads Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Tasker read that someplace or heard it on PTI as it was discussed last week. Not sure who their source was but they blew it off Wilbon said "They'd still screw it up with who they took"
