Slipping to a better team is probably the best thing for him he's the least pro ready of the top QBs in this class.

So all reports are the Browns are going to take Mayfield.... this is about to be a huge fail draft for them if they don't land Barkley at 4...

Given they've been indecisive on all QBs (they liked Darnold initially, then Allen, now Mayfield) and one of those 3 is guaranteed to be available... just fucking take Barkley?

This is how I see the top 5 playing out:

1 - Mayfield
2 - Barkley
3 - Rosen
4 - Chubb
5 - Nelson

Wouldn't be surprised if someone trades up to 4 or 5 for a QB.

I wouldn't either. However, the cost for doing so significantly lowers after the fifth pick. A team sitting at #11-16 might not need to use a 2019 first round pick to trade up if they wait till after the fifth pick.

Definitely agree with you there.

They will... by taking Mayfield at 1 and then watching Barkley go prior to 4... if they land Barkley at 4 they get extremely lucky.

My prediction is they'll take Mayfield (who will bust naturally), then when Barkley is not there at 4 they'll trade down and pick up a couple pedestrian guys who will bust...

Fast forward to next year. "The Browns have a lot of picks and should be able to massively improve their team this year!"

Why are they singing the national anthem before the draft? Last chance to find out if they'll kneel or stand before drafting them?

So was the national anthem a test to see who would kneel?

I think it is hilarious that Goodell is walking to the podium with Aikman and Staubach to avoid getting boo'd
I bet it doesn’t work.

Curious as to why Mayfield will bust?

Are idiots on twitter going to tweet the picks 5-10 minutes prior as always?

Because the Browns draft him, lol?

Outside of that, Mayfield has happy feet, not a great arm, and terrible footwork mechanics. Reminds me a lot of Dak Prescott... needs a heavy WCO (with a great running game *COUGH BARKLEY COUGH*) and decent defense to get the job done. However, WCO QBs are used to lining up to Center, something Mayfield needs to learn.

Is this thread going to be 'spoiler free'?
