Trading Down

[LETSGOBROWNIES]

Just getting a feel for the room and what everyone’s thinking.

[NateDawg]

I think with our current pick volume this year I’m more a proponent of moving up a few spots than down, unless we’re getting at least a day 2 pick. 

[Kiwibrown]

I want more picks for 2020, that said I am open to moving up or down if we need to. 

If one of the top 5 players was in range for a 3rd I'd do it. 

If we move back 10 spots and get a 2020 2nd or3rd and change I'd be happy. 

Moving back would be the optimal decision for the franchise beyond 2019, the move to make for this year is to move up. 

I'd move up for a pass rusher, dt/de I'd move back for the same or a receiver or corner also. I dont want to move up a non linemen. 

With how good we have been round 2-5 I am happy to move back. It is a 53 man game.

Yeah next year is the year I’m gonna be going hard(er) for a trade down.

It really is.  While we have some pretty decent starting talent, our depth is sketchy as hell in some areas, specifically on defense.

[Kiwibrown]

The optimal number of picks in a draft is probably somewhere between 6-8 with 3-4 picks in the earlier rounds, and moving up out of the 7th and 6th rounds where you can. Also there should be a goal of getting 1 pick in rounds 1-3 the next year, more of possible as long as it doesnt hamper your team.this year

Yeah we have plenty of picks this year, I’d honestly prefer future picks.

Keep that war chest full.

I think our lack of depth in the d line hurt us for the whole year, larry and myles were gassed by week 4, but we really didnt have effective depth to play anyone else.

Totally, we have legit talent, we are moving into unprecedented territory of browns recent history  trying to build a team that can win for a decade. 

Sachi, I salute you. 

[TheeRealDeal]

If we trade down I would much prefer picks in 2020 or a proven NFL quality starter in return. I am not a fan of the overall crop in this years draft especially after the Top 40 picks.

Agreed.  

I think our depth at CB was just as bad tbh.

Yeah losing ward and mitchell sucked our only competent outside guys. 

Carrie started the season as our no.4 corner despite a sizable contract, he was mediocre on the outside bar the Denver game. Him and BBC are inside guys.

I'm cool with picking anywhere in round 1, but I think 17 is a really sweet spot to land. All of the good QBs are probably gone by then pushing down better talent elsewhere.

I am hoping 2 wrs and 3qbs are gone by our pick giving us a shot at some good dlinemen.
