DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2017 NFL Season 2017 NFL Draft Draft rumors flying about #1.

Look this is probably bull, but we have been looking for our "Franchise QB" since 1993, so if these guys think MT is it then take him @ #1, we still have #12 and can take a pass rusher or DB there ...

j/c:

Anyone think all this Trubisky love is being pushed out by the Browns so they hope he is off the board? Basically, so it potentially opens up another available player they like to pick at #12?

Garrett is a total lock unless someone offers an rg3 deal.12 is the mystery.

As is 33.

Granted, BPA will win out overall but assuming Myles goes #1, next two priorities would have to be safety and QB.

After Adams and Hooker, there's likely not a safety worth 12.

Most assume Trub will be gonzo by 12 and there seems to be alot of doubt that Watson, Kizer or Mahomes would be worth it that high.

SO if Trub, Adams and Hooker are all gone, what's the play? OJ Howard seems to be gaining momentum but we still have Barnridge plus DeValve showed some good things. If those three are gone, I'm betting we look to trade down.

j/c...how bout the rumor of Denver looking to move up to #12 to draft the best LT prospect in this draft.
I'm wondering if 20, 51, 82 and a 2018 2nd rounder...oh and they take BO with us paying half his 2017 cap hit.

If Howard, Adams, Hooker, Thomas, and Allen are gone, I'd be all about moving back to 20. More likely be just 20 & 51 though, but I'd still be all over that. Might have to throw them back a pick, like 145 maybe, but the delta in what we would get between 12 and 20 in that scenario is minimal if anything, and 50-something is a prime pick in this draft.

JMO.

I'd rather take that LT ourselves, put him at RT and in two seasons when Joe retires, slip the new guy over to LT.

Cleveland 19 News have had numerous conversations about the report you are about to read. There's a lot at stake. A young woman who said she was sexually assaulted, a young man who is about to start his NFL career, and a team who may be taking a huge risk drafting a player who's under investigation right here in Cleveland.

"Officers on scene no call back. Twenty three-year-old female conscious and breathing. Victim of a sexual assault." That's police radio traffic coming from the downtown Westin Hotel in Cleveland after 3 a.m. Sunday, April 9.

The accused is a college football player who is expected to be drafted in the first round of the NFL on Thursday.

We are not naming the player because we're waiting for the police report. And we want to be very clear he has not been officially charged with a crime at this point.

By phone investigative producer Cassie Nist spoke to the player's attorney, Kevin Spellacy, who said he is representing the player in this matter, but said the accusations are "ludicrous and ridiculous."

"In my opinion this young lady is an opportunist and it's actually despicable" said Spellacy.

The player's attorney says it all started at the Barley House on West 6th Street, when a group left there to go to the Westin for a hotel room party. He said his client was never alone with the alleged victim, and he has three witnesses who said he did nothing wrong. When police arrived at the Westin, the player had already left.. The attorney said he is willing to bring his client in to be interviewed by police, but not right away. He has made arraignments for the interview to be held right after the NFL Draft.

There is a lot at stake. It's just days before the draft and one of the top picks has his name on paperwork somewhere on a Cleveland detective's desk. We'd like to see that paperwork. Normally we can. But for some reason we, the media, are being held up.
