I wish we played with 3 LBers more. The idea of Kirksey, Jarrad Davis, and Jamie Collins is great. I also really like the idea of Kirksey, Collins, TJ Watt.

I think he makes a great WILB and he can get to the passer.

For the Browns 3rd round pick I'd like to nominate Sidney Jones

I'll second Jones

I'd also like to suggest:
DT Caleb Brantley
CB Quincy Wilson
CB Rasul Douglas
TE Bucky Hodges
OG Dion Dawkins
DE Jordan Willis
S Marcus Maye

He won't be available at 65

Good I'd much rather have hodges anyway! Lol I second Brantley and hodges. Somebody second maye!

You like guys that drop the ball?

Since we're making recommendations for 65, I'm going to recommend Fabian Moreau - FS/CB

I think if the Browns' draft pans out how it has so far I'll be a happy camper. I mean -

DE Garrett
QB Trubisky
CB White
SS Melinfonwu
WR Jones

The only pick I don't really like is Jones. I feel there were better players available and I'd prefer someone like Kupp, Westbrook, Taylor at receiver later potentially. Still, that is nit picking

EDIT - there's still a LOAD of talent left on the board. I'd be tempted to leverage some later picks to try and move up.

Falcons would like to move up as many picks as possible - offering #63, #136 & #249. PM me

you just missed a chance to move up with NYJ...

Haha I didn't think that would be ethical....;)

I like guys that are consistently productive with gronk size but more dynamically athletic despite only playing the position for 3 years. You don't? I don't dislike engram I just think we already have a move TE.

I really, really wanted to like Hodges. I saw his SPARQ, his size, his stats, and in this one mock similar to this I'm doing I traded around expecting to draft him. Then I went back and re-watched his draftbreakdown. There are way too many times he doesn't make the contested catch when a guy his size should. I had to pass. He's way too inconsistent. If you can't reliably catch catchable balls, you might as well play for the defense. Yes, his athleticism is great... he flies off the snap, he can run, he can jump, he's huge, he occasionally makes truly remarkable catches... but as we've seen too many times, guys that drop the ball are going to keep dropping the ball. Add to that that he's not a strong blocker despite his size and what are you going to do with him? Can't rely on him to make the critical 3rd down catches, can't put him inline and expect to get push out of him, and what are you left with? A tease.

Anyway, that's just my opinion. Somebody draft him.

He has been arrested 3 times. Wouldn't touch him at all...

Can't get off press. Too weak and skinny. Zay is a monster. I'm surprised no one has picked a WR since the 15th pick.

Ah, didn't realise that - thanks for the correction.

Browns pick #53, Zay Jones, had 158 receptions (100 more than his next-closest teammate) in 12 games last year.

He's my fourth rated WR. He is so dangerous. He absolutely destroyed the Florida DB's two years ago. He's going to be good in the NFL.

Hey I'm not sure to put this, so I'll put it here. Anyone who is interested in the draft and has $20 bucks to spend, I'd buy the draft guide from PFF. They do a lot of research on a lot of players. At this point you'll get version 2 (their more indepth guide) for the next two drafts. That's a steal, honestly.

Speaking of, I really, really like what they mocked for us in their 3 rounder.

1. Myles Garrett
12. Jamal Adams
33. Jourdan Lewis
52. Ahkello Witherspoon
65. Nathan Peterman

i'd take that draft now

The Texans could use an LB who can cover. I was hoping to snag Jarrad Davis, but the Jets beat me to him. Tyus Bowser has superior athleticism which allows him to cover in space and he also offers some developing pass rush ability. Bowser can play inside and outside which adds to his value.

Love the 1st 2 picks.

At #33, Gareon Conley was available (selected at #42) who I would much prefer.
I would also prefer to take Sydney Jones who went ay #46

At #52, I would have taken Markus Williams who went at #60 or Zay Jones who went #61.

At #65, I won't argue against taking a Qb but I like Jaleel Johnson, Antonio Garcia, Raekwon McMillan, Rasoul Douglas, Cameron Sutton and Chris Godwin better.

Interestingly, Budda Baker doesn't go until pick #81. I didn't list him as an option because I don't believe that he lasts anywhere near that long.

These are the guys that are currently slated to be on the voting list for 65, whether because they were on a previous voting list or they have since been nominated and seconded. If there is someone else you'd like to have considered, please nominate them.

Chris Godwin, WR Penn St
DeDe Westbrook, WR Oklahoma State
Taylor Moton, OL Western Michigan
Fabian Moreau, DB UCLA
Josh Jones, Safety NC State
Bucky Hodges, TE Virginia Tech
Sydney Jones, CB Washington
Quincy Wilson, CB Florida

I'll nominate Montravius Adams, DT, Auburn

That's a solid nomination. I'll second Adams.

The Chiefs need a consistent guy opposite Peters and Quincy Wilson has plenty of upside. At 59 he seemed a solid take.

I honestly don't understand how Wilson is rated so low. I think he could start at corner or safety.

I thought we were going to select a GM to draft for the Browns after round 2.

His cockiness and his mouth, perhaps? But, he has good reviews from people closest to him (coaches) and he lets his play speak for himself.

I have seen a couple boards that have him higher than Tabor. So yea...59 seemed a steal.

But, I now have other holes I need to address. I wish I had the Browns picks to work with!

Ah my bad I forgot... or didn't pay enough attention. Either way, my bad.

IDC. Personally, I'm for what the people want. The picks don't take that long IMO.

I say we go with what we've been doing, but just cut down the time a bit. It is inclusive and no is bitter about someone else having the Browns.
