Jetster Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I really liked Baker Mayfield, but my guess is IF the Jets had the 1 & 4 picks and came out of this draft with Mayfield & James, Jet fans would be jumping off bridges. You have to believe that Mayfield is IN FACT the next coming of Drew Brees or Russell Wilson to make this a great draft for the Browns. None of us know the future but history tells us that the odds are not good that Baker comes close to Drew Brees career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrissey Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 If Jets had those picks I would ecstatic if we ended up with Barkley at 1 and Rosen at 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDL_JET Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I don’t think so. Not the popular choices. But still good picks. All depends on Mayfield of course. But Ward compliments the defense. Allowing Garret and others more time to get to the passer. If they went Allen, then yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesr Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I had the same thought this morning ... if I was a Browns fan, I'd be having to convince myself my team didn't blow it. You can argue the toss about which QB they picked, I guess, but Ward at 4 when Chubb was still there? Couldn't they find anyone to trade down with?

I think it was either Schefter or Rappaport said after Bills traded up to 7 to get Allen that they had this trade done with Denver that afternoon, but when Chubb was still there, Denver said no.

New York Mick Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 3/4 of my draft text last night were “wtf are the Browns thinking”. They could of had two of the top four guys and came away with none of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bla bla bla Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I really wanted Baker but that was because I 100% believe Darnold was going 1 or 2. I really hope Baker plays well because I honk that is really good for the NFL but man I don’t know if I’d be overly thrilled as a Browns fan. I think Ward is a fine pick, I thought it would have been Minkah but that’s splitting hairs. I’d still be happy as a Browns fan it just feels like a cautiously optimistic feeling.

JetFaninMI Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I wanted Mayfield as well. I simply didn't think Darnold would get to the Jets. So I think the Browns did well with Mayfield but completely blew it on the second pick. Chubb should have been the guy and by a large margin. The Browns could have gotten the guy they took later and added more picks. They should have drafted Chubb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallinPB Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I think they blew it personally. I know the hype for Baker around here was huge but I just don't see him being a great QB. You have to be a really special QB to be Russell WIlson or Drew Brees and I'm definitely not sold that Baker is that guy. I'm fine with the Ward pick but to choose Baker when you had Darnold and Rosen sitting there is ridiculous. I think this thread should be Did the Bills blow this. They had Rosen gifted to them at 7 and chose Josh Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in a bar full of Browns fans last night, thanked the couple who were cheering for Darnold at #1, after the Jets picked him at #3 had to buy them a beer, they were not happy - did not see anyone really happy about Baker Ward was appreciated (Buckeye land) and CB was a need so they liked that pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've got a good pass rush and pressure the QB you've helped everyone in the secondary. Still can't believe they passed on Darnold. And Allen going before Rosen? Crazy nite.

LAD_Brooklyn Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Browns must like short QBs as Taylor is the same build as Mayfield. As for the 4th pick they nailed it. Ward is a stud cover CB that can guard those quick and small WRs like Antonio Brown who'll they have to play against twice per season. Chubb is more so a Chris Long type DE. A guy that's exceptional vs the run and above average rushing the passer. Great player but nothing you should go crazy about passing on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augustiniak Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 most teams with the 1 and 4 picks would have come away with darnold and chubb. that was the lay up. pass rushers are much harder to find than cbs like ward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
