Dont know about Cousins over Mayfield honestly. That might be a wash. Forgot about Hunt, but honestly I'm just going to pretend he isn't there, because...well he shouldn't be. I'd rather have Chubb over Cook to be honest, but its close. And while I'm no fan of Cousins, he is definitely a better QB right now, but that will certainly change quick. Digg and Thielen is a better duo, no doubt in my mind. Njoku is still all potential at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's an excellent route runner and has excellent hands, the two things that Diggs is also proficient at. I mean, when you put it like that....

wcblack34 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 There's not much nuance to it. Cousins in year 7 is in a statistical dead heat with a rookie. The thread has derailed into a comparison of Browns Offense v. Vikings Offense. It all starts at the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cook isn't in the same league because he tore his ACL then had a hamstring injury? I gurantee you Cook would have been right up at the top for Rookie of the year his rookie year if not for the torn ACL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year he average 13 ypc, 3 ypc more than Diggs. I also think Diggs is better than Landry, but only slightly. I think that Odell is better than Thielen by a little more. So I think the Browns have a better duo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a top-3 RB in Barkley (who I can't blame them for taking after Baker since Darnold, Rosen, Allen do nothing for me) You're basically inviting a QB (2019 draft, trade for Rosen, Foles, etc) to step in with two of the best weapons in the NFL on one offense and succeed. Now, they're going to waste at least 3 years (2018-2020 at minimum) of their stud running back as they have no hint of an answer at QB. HOW DO YOU MESS THAT UP?!?!?! THE ABSOLUTE PERFECT MOLD TO INSERT A YOUNG QB. Barkley might as well be the next Adrian Peterson. All that talent wasted on junk QBs and junk receivers (sans 2009) and only getting one playoff win in 4 appearances over 10 seasons Edited March 13, 2019 by Vikes_Bolts1228 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunts’ pretty dang good. Chubb I’ll leave up in the air, I’d like to see Cook have an opportunity to run being a solid offensive line like Chubb did before I make that judgement.

swede700 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I think the trade of OBJ says more about his impact in the locker-room than his impact on the football field. Even from Shurmur's comments with PA during the Combine regarding OBJ, it didn't sound like he was all that fond of him personally. And I'm not jumping on board the Browns bandwagon until I see them all on the field. It sounds like Fantasy Football team-making to me...and if it doesn't work, it will fail on an epic level.
