Also thank them for choosing Hue Jackson over McDermott

 

 

Thank Haslam--he's the only one in the Brown's organization who wanted Jackson.

I wonder who chiefs fans thank for their qb

[Freddie's Dead]

Which pick did Tyrod turn into?  I think we made out like bandits on that one.

[Malazan]

Let's not forget the Vikings and their help.

All of the teams that passed on him. 

[aceman_16]

I wanted Baker, Darnold, Jackson,  Allen then Rosen.

 

I have NEVER been happier being wrong. Josh isn't just a good budding QB ..... he has the temperament of Western NY.

Seems to be a lot of dismissal of Lamar Jackson here…

I've always been curious to know if this was a legit report or your basic pre-draft nonsense

I have spoken to a scout who was in the room when Polian was  GM of Indy and took Manning. Polian swears it was never a question, they were taking Manning over Leaf. That’s not at all what this scout told me. The room was divided big time right up till the draft.

What are you talking about?

I actually think he could be elite.... if he played in the slot. But as an outside corner I think he is good. He isn't by any means a bust. But I don't think he is going to be elite on the outside.

 

Ward just held AJ Green to 29 yards on 13 targets. His only concern at this point is injuries. Outside of that, he's elite.

Didn’t name drop. And it was relevant to the post saying that the Browns front office was debating between Allen and Mayfield. Jeesh. Sorry for sharing a story.

It was relevant to the poster talking about Cleveland having debates over Allen and Mayfield. I was saying this goes on a lot. Really sorry for sharing a story. Jeesh.

Because he is a running back

I re read my comment, sorry man, I did not realize how big of a d*** I came off as.

The current leading passer in the NFL resides on the Bills. So maybe we should be thanking them as well 🤔

I have a friend who's a lifelong Browns fan.  He told me that the only player they were completely sold on and knew they were drafting was Denzel Ward with their pick at number 4.

All good. We are all here for the same reason. We love the Bills.

I wanted Baker over Allen in the draft.  I am definitely happy with who we get now.  However, I bet if Baker had this team and coaching staff around him the last three years he would be doing much better than he is now with that circus in Cleveland.

It was reported a bunch of places prior to their first pick in 2018 the Browns brass had a really long discussion about whether to take Baker Mayfield or Josh Alllen...at this point it’s safe to say this kid is the best qb since Jim Kelly and well Baker isn’t exactly Brian Sipe out there so Thanks guys 👍

Allen was too raw and had accuracy issues for the Browns with the first pick.The credit should go to Beane for seeing the trajectory of this physical freak who had big time leadership skills. Trading up saved our franchise.
