wow. Ok, so if available you have no interest in trading up for Barkley at all?

Like I've said a million times...I want us to do this out of pure homerism but...how could you possibly think that is a good idea?

If we have to give up this years first, and next years first.. thats two first round picks for one player.

Also one and four are linked. If Gruden doesnt use him, it doesnt really make us better

I want to upgrade my sons car, that doesnt mean Im going to spend this years and next years bonus to buy him a top of the line sports car, when I know he wont be capable of driving it to its full potential, and I still need to buy a lawn mower as well.

I need a PO box for you, Im going to send you this to help out with all these math problems you are apparently having

FWIW Gruden would love him and absolutely use him. He'd be a monster here. But it's still a bad idea.

good idea to trade up? I don't know why its a bad idea. Makes us a playoff team if we get him.

He would be a big link that would make this offense something special. I don't understand how not trading up for a great RB isn't logical. We are a better with him then without him. Like Vt said if the first round pick next year is in the 20's who cares? That would mean we would of had a successful season. Im not saying winning the Super Bowl but a force to deal with in the playoffs. That is all you can ask for right now.

I think Elway considers trading with us for #13, 2019 1st rounder, and Cravens. That is actually an overpay from us. But I think most fans can live without the 2019 first rounder if it lands us Barkley.

He would make the offense better but it would be nothing special. By the time it could be special, he will be three years into his rookie contract and three years intimate the end of his career because RBs do not last.

Barkley makes us better. Does he make us better than Payne, Michel, and our first rounder next season? Nope.

Your poll shows most cannot live without our first next season.

Because RBs with high picks are a bad idea.
Trading up is a bad idea.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say putting the two bad ideas together does not magically make one good idea.

Thing is, the QB pool is apparently deeper than the RB pool.

So the question I ask myself if IM the Brown is, do I think the talent level between our #1 and #2 QB in this draft is a bigger drop off thant the talent level between the #1 RB, and the guy we would likely get if we passed on him.

It wouldnt be a stretch to take Darnold, Rosen, or even Allen at #4.
It would be a reach to take the next best RB behind Barkley at #4.
And if the talk around this board of trading up for Barkley is any indication, if the Browns dont take him #1 over all, some one like maybe the Giants who have the #2 just might try to work something with a team like us and still be able to get DE at 13.
The Giants working a deal with US is laughable.:lol:

We gave up three ones and two twos to move up from 7 to 2.

What would it take to move up from thirteen to two? I will give you four ones, four twos, and three threes?


And one of these for good measure
