But Tyrod is virtually guaranteed to be injured behind that OL and he's gonna fumble more than once. The Browns are weak in several areas, but interior lines (OL and DL) are not one of them. I couldn't name five teams that are stronger in the interior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I'm not as smart about this as a lot of you guys, but when I first read this I figured that Tyrod Taylor was acquired specifically to be a bridge, and that means that they will be drafting Darnold or Allen or somebody, who can sit and learn for a while- rather than throwing a baby into the swimming pool like they did with young Kizer Permanente.

Was speaking the truth. The best thing about that OL is Thomas. That OL looked terrible in week 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that but that will mean they spent a high 1st and high 3rd on QB, not exactly the smartest course of action. Having said that, I think there's a chance they don't draft a first round QB.

That is also with Thomas being hurt for most of the season. That was also with a horrible hue scheme that was basically nothing but deep balls and extremely slow developing route combinations. Haley is going to call a better offense than Hue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough but my point was that was a glimpse of the inconsistency issues on that OL Also in regards to the Cleveland DL , I don't recall saying a word about that. It's easy to scrutinize Cleveland's decision making, let's be honest. I'm not trolling at all but all too often what looks like good moves turns out to be more wasted time. I'm not convinced this isn't more of the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would personally like to keep Glenn but I could see a reason to trade him. Especially if he stands between us a Rosen/Darnold/Mayfield. Basically this, In an ideal world Dawkins and Glenn are the Bills bookend tackles moving forward. But with the cap space that can be saved and Glenn's inability to stay healthy, makes trading him likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 A 3rd rounder for a proven NFL QB sounds OK to me. I think people are now OVERVALUING the 65th pick if they suspect this was a bad trade for CLE. CLE has a crapload of picks, so burning a 3rd rounder for TT isn't a bad idea.

He wont win the Browns games but he wont cost them games. I want to see what he can do with the talent around him. IMO the Browns have a group of Weapons at WR that is better than anything he had in Buffalo. I also think he makes a huge impact in the locker room. Hue tried trading a 2nd and 3rd for McCarron, so trading just a 3rd for Tyrod is damn good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A proven starter...who was benched last year for Nathan Peterman, a fifth round rookie quarterback...in the middle of a playoff race. As ill advised as that decision was, there was something that drove Buffalo to do it Yes, he's a proven starter. Proven to be what though. I think most people just feel that there were comparable options available without giving up a pick that high. Even if you don't over value the pick, it still has some value and it's very easy to argue it's higher than a guy who at most probably starts one year for you and is strictly a bridge quarterback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaches don't arbitrarily decide to change QBs mid season in a playoff race... especially when the alternative is a rookie fifth rounder. How badly does a staff have to think of how you are playing to make that call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
