With the draft a couple hours from starting, thought we could have a “game day” style thread.
The first trade has been announced:
“The first trade of draft day has happened, and it is anticlimactic.
The Browns and Texans have worked out a trade, though of much-less value that their trade of Deshaun Watson three years ago. All five picks involved in the deal are third-day picks.
The Texans traded a 2025 fifth-round pick (No. 166 overall) and 2027 fifth-round pick to the Browns for a 2025 sixth-round pick (No. 179 overall), a 2025 sixth-round pick (No. 216 overall) and a 2025 seventh-round pick (No. 255 overall). The trade was announced by both teams.
The Browns had four sixth-round picks and turned two of those and a seventh-rounder to get into the fifth round. Cleveland now has eight draft picks and Houston nine.”
Maybe minor, but I didn’t like that and did like it for two reasons:
1. Don’t because Browns now have fewer picks to use to trade up to #20.
2. Do like it because maybe there has been some discussion with Denver and the Broncos want a higher 5th as part of the package.
See, all this is making me even more stupid than I was!
