SemperFeist Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 I could easily see Dorsey taking Allen. In fact, I do think it’s between Darnold and Allen for the 1st pick. No QB that Cleveland drafts is going to play next year. Dorsey is going to make sure that his QB sits and learns for a year. With Jackson likely being a lame duck coach, I doubt Dorsey is going to let his QB see much action without his coach doing the teaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 Over the last 12 years (interesting cutoff) how many teams that have taken a QB in the 1st round have had the benefit to do so? How many were drafted with a lame duck coaching staff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 Except for the Jets, all of the teams linked to taking a QB in the first have starters set in place. It’s going to be hard to justify starting a rookie when you’re paying a veteran $20M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klomp Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Whoever Cleveland drafts may play at some point as a rookie, but it won't be in the first game of the season. Plenty of teams have gone that route in the last 12 years for their longterm starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kparty15 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I picked Rosen. I think he is currently the best passer in the draft even though Darnold has a lot of potential. Rosen seemed to take a step back on the comments he made about playing for the Browns so I think they may have put him back into consideration.

vikingsrule Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I went with Darnold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boda Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I went with Baker Mayfield who I view as the best QB in this class or atleast 1A to Rosen's 1B. After taking Mayfield ideally take Barkley 4th and spend both of their every early 2nd round picks to help fix the Defense. I think a Mayfield/Barkley/Landry/Gordon/Colemen/Njoku offense is too good to pass up, teams would have a hard time matching up with that defensively atleast IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hagar Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Tough choice. I want to say Barkley, but with how I think the top 4 picks will go i think they get there top choice at QB with Darnold at #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDBrocks Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I went with Rosen because I think he’s the best QB of the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavydan85 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I'd probably pick Barkley, but picked Darnold because solid chance he falls to 4 if they go QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted March 27, 2018 Author Share Posted March 27, 2018 With such a commanding lead for Sam Darnold, I closed the poll a little early for Cleveland. I the the NYG pick will be a little closer, so I’ll give it some more time. Each pick will close at 12pm the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted March 27, 2018 Author Share Posted March 27, 2018 I went with Rosen because I think he perfectly fits with Shurmur. I’m not buying the rumors about Barkley or Chubb. The Jets don’t make their trade offer to the Colts without first making that offer to the Giants. Meaning that the Giants turned that mega deal down. For a team with a new GM, new head coach, the fewest number of draft picks, and the beginning of a rebuild, you don’t turn that deal down if you’re not planning on taking a QB.
