But they moved to the 3rd pick, not the 1st pick. I have to think there might be some knowledge of who the Browns are taking. I have absolutely zero way of backing this up, but I think it's likely the NFL has told teams with the first overall pick not to reveal who they plan on taking like teams used to. They want maximum ratings for the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they pass, have to wonder whether Denver would nab him with Keenum there or will they still go best QB left? I wouldn't be surprised if they took Nelson there. I know there were reports that they were in love with Baker Mayfield, so they could be in play there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pollino14 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 So the top 3 picks are gonna be QBs. I’m gonna say all 5 QBs will be gone when we pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 I think 4 QB's go in the top 5 at this rate. Bills are still lurking and thirsty as hell to get their QB. Giants at 2 or even Browns at 4 could get a haul from Buffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deltarich87 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 If the Jets were gonna pay this much to move up for their QB, why on earth did they sign BOTH Bridgewather and McCown? You don't need to spend that kind of money on both who you clearly view as placeholders until their drafted QB is ready to take over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start McCown/Bridgewater and let them fail, and let the rookie learn from their failures. Lots of great quarterbacks sat their first year or more. Our last two great quarterbacks did.

One equals a bridge that knows the playbook. One will not be on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I feel bad for top QB's that get thrown into the fire right away. Generally doesn't work out well. If a team can afford to, a rook sitting for two or three years is a better strategy.

Oh I get the Jets not throwing a rookie out right away, especially looking at that depth chart on offense. Just seems odds that they'd give McCown a 1yr $10 million deal and then sign Bridgewater for 1yr $15 million. Don't need both guys to essentially play the same role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
