I would take Barkley #1, Minkah at #4 and offer Philly a couple of your 2nd's for Foles after signing Bridgewater in FA(they have the space)My predictions for the Browns before the draft after listening to the GM Dorsey:
#1 Sam Darnold or Josh Rosen - (Allen and Mayfield will not go to the Browns)
#4 Minkah Fitzpatrick or they trade down and still get Fitz while getting a 2nd round pick
Book it.

I would think they could get Darnold or Rosen later. And go with a guy like Barkley 1st imo. Barkley has looked very impressive at the combine
I'm with you, I could see these QB's do OK, but I could also see all of them go bust, I don't see anyone as good as Wentz or Goff coming out. Unfortunately for the Browns, they have passed on so many good QB's that they are probably gonna take Darnold no matter what. To me, if you sign Bridgewater and trade for Foles, you are going to get solid QB play, and you are getting a potential Zeke caliber RB to pair him with. I would also consider Quenton Nelson at 4, then you would have added the two best players on the entire draftThat would be the perfect scenario imo.
I would take Barkley first too but the way Dorsey was talking there is a lot of RB depth. I mean they could get Guice in the 2nd.
I don’t really think highly of any of these top QB’s to be honest

To be fair, we say this every year. I think I compared Goff to Matt Ryan and Wentz to Flacco so they're already overachieving my expectations from that draft. I know a lot of people who were lower on those two than I was.I'm with you, I could see these QB's do OK, but I could also see all of them go bust, I don't see anyone as good as Wentz or Goff coming out.
Is Darnold the guy, though? He seemed to have a lot of issues when pressured last year. They said that about Dak, too, but thats also the issue that held back Siemian at the pro level and why the Broncos went from a Super Bowl contender to maybe the worst team in the NFL down the stretch last year.Unfortunately for the Browns, they have passed on so many good QB's that they are probably gonna take Darnold no matter what.

I think Rosen and Barkley are the guys in this draft. The Wentz and Goff respectively.
I did 40 once...unfortunately I was 36 and my 5.2 speed didn't translate...29 reps for Barkley
SC lost the majority of their Oline in last years draft. No bye week and a lot of injuries left an already inexperienced Oline thin. At one point they were down to 3rd string offensive linemen.He also had inexperienced WR's SC lost their top 2 WRs to last years draft.A lot of the interceptions were actually on the WR's. Balls that should have been caught that went off their hands. Some Darnold was just trying to do too much.To be fair, we say this every year.

I wouldn't take Rosen over either. Nelson is going to be a beast. He was the stud in that ND offense imoI wouldn't take Darnold over Barkley...
I did 40 once...unfortunately I was 36 and my 5.2 speed didn't translate...
He was a tank. I wasn't in a suit lol, back when I was powerlifting I did 315 for 20 and decided to drop a plate and see how many I could get. I think I could have gotten 43-44 but my pec felt like it was about to tear. I had a workout partner once that could do 515 for 10, was twice as strong as me, but he would always gas out before 40. Of course, he couldn't exactly pass the NFL's drug testing program...Damn still very impressive. Did you see Heath Evans do 45? He did it back in 2016 I think. He was in a suit and tie lol
I really fail at multitasking. I meant to say Baker Mayfield not Barkley.I wouldn't take Darnold over Barkley...
I think Mayfield could be great IF he went to a good team, as Dak did when he went to Dallas.I really fail at multitasking. I meant to say Baker Mayfield not Barkley.
Obviously Barkley is going to be a stud. It just comes down to how much of a stud.
I feel like the Darnold is the most like Dak. Mobility, medium arm strength, struggled heavily when pressured but had a good excuse.I think Mayfield could be great IF he went to a good team, as Dak did when he went to Dallas.
I feel like if Josh Allen could go somewhere and sit for a couple of years, he would be the best of them all, but he could get wrecked if he played right away. Guys like ARod and Romo really benefited from sitting, there's no shame in itI feel like the Darnold is the most like Dak. Mobility, medium arm strength, struggled heavily when pressured but had a good excuse.
Mayfield to me is like Goff. Successful but in a college system and he'll have to learn to be a pro. So yeah...I agree about the good team part. With both him and Darnold.
Rosen will be good if he stays healthy. The Doctors will decide his draft stock best as I can tell.
Jackson could be the best of the bunch but like Mayfield he should probably sit a year and like Rosen he'll have to worry about staying healthy because running QBs don't last.
I think its an exciting QB class as someone who isn't sweating bullets knowing that one of these QBs is coming my team's way
