Not one team has OLine depth.
I will take talent working with outstanding coaching every time over a loser franchise that is so bad it receives empathy from it's own division rivals. |

They are also idiots for not drafting Ruben Foster at 29.

I don't think the browns approach is wrong. I wonder if it's a little arrogant. It's almost like they're trying to prove moneyball works by passing on highly touted prospects. They're not just trading high priced veterans. They're also giving away cheap ones, repeatedly trading down in the first round, and passing up on highly ranked prospects.

NFL teams have to spend within 99% of the Cap Limit over a 4 year period. Baseball has no such rule. The Browns are NOT going out and getting guys on the cheap, they're loading up on draft picks in order to select the best player that fits there system that's available. They have SIX picks in the Top 100 in 2018 and they'll probably continue to stockpile talent and move around in the draft. It won't be very long until they're a contender year in and year out. |

I would give up every pick they made last year for their original 2nd overall to pick Carson Wentz.

Plus, they clearly had a vision of what the team would look like in the following 3 years, as well as the draft, so they didn't need to force the pick. Their 2016 draft turned out pretty well, they added a nice piece in Jamie Collins and by all accounts, Myles Garrett is for real. AND they have two 1st's, two 2nd's and two 3rd's in the 2018 draft. |

That makes more sense. Yeah.....I'd trade all that garbage for Wentz.

Am I the only one that's not a big fan of Wentz?

I don't disagree with how the Browns are building their team. The draft is the way to go. I just disagree with how they drafted. I would rather have a Von Miller like player AND Patrick Willis instead of Von Miller and a Greg Olson like player.

It's a little difficult to judge Wentz because his receiving corp was just so awful last year.
He reminded me of Rothlisberger pre-draft and looked the part for a while. It'll be interesting to see if Goff makes any type of advancement this year but the Rams roster is so depleted that it could be difficult to assess him, too. I still can't figure out why Les Snead has a job but that's a different subject altogether. |
