Mel Kiper knows more than every GM in the league combined apparently.

Imagine thinking you could be the 2nd or 3rd overall pick...then falling all the way to the 5th. Only to be taken by the Browns. Who selected a different QB ahead of you.

 

This REEKS of Haslam getting involved and forcing this pick. 

Either humbles the bumble OR he cops a 'tude...

All the psychotherapy by tv analysts directed to Shedur is over the top. The kid has had every advantage he could get up to this point. No one is crying tears for all the other players, who have struggled from much harder backgrounds, who are still waiting to hear their name called. Whatever happens, Shedur is probably set for life, unlike so many others.

Thank god for our QB. hey, Josh, stay humble, please  I think that’s why y’all with HS. 

[Chicharito]

Curious to see how this plays out. I wonder if he and daddy pout  their way out of Cleveland.

cleveland, where an careers go to die, brady quinn, deshaun watson, johnny manziel and next up Shadeur sanders

Agree 100% but maybe if his dad (and by all accounts Deion seems like a good dad) kept his attitude in check, maybe he interviews better and is a better leader. 
 

but yeah, nfl money isn’t making or breaking his life and there are a lot of guys who haven’t gotten close to the head start in life that he did.

CLE smart risk vs reward play. They drafted the QB they wanted and tossed in a 2nd. 5th rounders lucky to make even BB practice team, if you could later get trade…..even have your own pitchman.

No downside?

 

Then why did he fall so far?

Nope, I think it's the opposite.

 

Shedeur could be the savior, end the run of endless QBs through Cleveland. 

 

He's going to have to earn it, I bet he does.

At this point he is worth the risk.  Like others have said, if he proves himself, you found a QB in the 5th round.  If he shows to be a pain AT ALL, you cut him and move on.  You can't do that with a 1st or 2nd round pick.  I believe it's only happened with a 3rd rounder 1 in the last 20ish years.  But 5th rounders get cut all the time.  

 

He and Gabriel are opposites so far.  Gabriel apparently interviewed extremely well and came off as extremely smart.  Sanders interviewed extremely poorly and was a pain.  But Sanders has a lot more potential.  I do agree drafting 2 guys is very odd, but when Kenny Pickett is currently listed as your backup, its not hard to just cut him either if the 2 rookies look reasonably good.

The downside is you could have used that pick to help a horrible roster. They already picked a QB they liked better. We’d be pissed if the Bills drafted two QBs to compete for a backup role 

 

This is how bad teams stay bad

Sanders, Gabriel, Watson, and Flacco is an interesting QB room.

Cleveland's roster was good enough 2 years ago to make the playoffs with 5 separate QBs starting games.  The roster isn't bad at all.  There are holes, sure.  But there are holes on pretty much every NFL roster outside of Philly.  They need a QB.  With good QB play, they can compete.  With QB play like last year, you go 3-14.  Not rocket science.

At a 5th-round price, there’s nearly no downside. Like a good stock play, every risk/reward call comes down to value, floor, and upside — and a 5th has way more upside

Watson will never play another snap in Cleveland.  He will go on IR this year, and then be cut or stashed the year after.

yeah, they're acting like he was imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. It's funny because one of the criticisms has been that he has an entitled attitude, and they're all acting entitled on his behalf. They're desperately trying to turn it into some sort of racial hate crime, like George Floyd. Stephen A Smith has been comparing it to Kapernick. I guess it will give them something to talk about during the dry months of the offseason
