Not gonna lie. I woke up thinking about the draft. Man...l'm worried about the browns screwing this up. I really hope they don't outsmart themselves with the first overall pick and just draft Garrett. I'm actually not worried about #12 because there's really no sure fire pick at that spot, IMO.
But I'm worried about situations like them trading back, or picking a QB with the first pick.

Heck yes, I am. I'm sick of this Trubisky talk. I'm sick of not knowing whether or not our front-office is just another group of thinking-outside-the-box, we're-smarter-than-you guys. Yes, I know it will take years to know that. Why am even at work???

I'm extremely nervous. We have a huge opportunity to greatly enhance our team. We have a bad track record with selecting the right players.
Imagine how Sashi, Andrew and company felt waking up this morning? There must be so much pressure their rib cages are about to collapse.

I really think that this talk about QBs is just that ... talk.
I have heard a rumor that the Browns are likely to take Garrett at #1, then try to trade down from 12. That actually makes a lot of sense, depending on who is gove, and who is available.

I'd rather see the trade back, but I do agree with you on a QB at #1. I'm sure I'm overthinking things, it's what I do, but I don't want a Renaissance Man as my #1 pick and cornerstone DE, I want a football junky with a mean streak. I just don't see that with Garrett.

Most of this QB @ #1 talk is media driven just to make it more exciting and give them something to talk about ... Pick Garrett trade up for Hooker and make them look stupid !!

Not one bit. They're going to do what they're going to do. If they go against what 31 teams and countless experts (?) think then they'll get what they deserve a year or two down the road. Maybe Mitch turns out to be Johnny Unitis V2. I won't hold it against them that they passed him at one. They MUST do what makes sense for this team at this moment in time regardless how Garret's career plays out.

I was pretty confident until this morning. Now I fear Trubisky is the guy and we'll regret it. I just don't see it.

Biggest fears.
1) Passing on Garrett
2) Trading up for Trubisky
3) Drafting Trubisky in general
4) Drafting Joe Mixon
5) The Browns actually have 13 picks this weekend

Swish, I hear ya, bro. I am trying not to think about it, but I am as nervous as heck. And I am trying to get a lot done here in case the govt shouts down.
I am not sure I can take it.
How does a league celebrating its 100th season only recognize the 53 most recent championships?

5) The Browns actually have 13 picks this weekend - Yes (in general) on #1. Depends on how far down we go if a trade. - Definitely yes on #2. - #3 Depends where we take him, otherwise no. - #4 I don't really want him. - #5 Very doubtful we draft 13 players...

I am ... I like Trubisky but I either want Garrett at #1 or trade down if someone throws the kitchen sink at us, then I hope we wait until pick #12 and if he is gone so be it take the BPA ...

Just take Garrett. It's pretty low risk. Taking Trubisky could be disastrous

I agree...The QBs are all risky this year...I would wait for one to fall in your lap outside of round 1...take the sure bets whom will improve this team in the associated areas...Grab Garrett at #1...and I hope O.J. Howard or Jamal Adams somehow slide to #12 overall...

If given the choice between trading up for Trubisky, or not drafting a QB at all ... I'd pick the latter

Not sure I'm nervous...I have a feeling they are set on Garret at #1. To me this is the no brainer pick, because everyone has him as their #1. There is always the chance he is a bust but lets just say he does end up a bust, well everyone was wrong and not just us.
I think if we hear a QBs name announced with that first pick, than it will to me signal that there truly is something screwed up in the front office because that would totally fly against any logic, especially if they passed on Wentz last year.

But I'm worried about situations like them trading back, or picking a QB with the first pick. I am super worried. And I just don't have much confidence that we are not going to screw this up. Take Garrett and if you trade up from 12-only take Adams, OJ Howard or maybe Hooker And I am tired of going to a home game in November and there are more opposing teams fans downtown than Browns fans

With the way the draft has gone since 1999, how could one not be nervous?
We have to wonder about our FO. I mean the fact is this is only their second year at their respective positions. Does that mean they'll flop? No, it certainly doesn't. But how can anyone simply put blind faith in a bunch of guys with such limited experience?
So yes, I'm nervous. I certainly hope that for the team, the coaches, the fans and this FO that they've grown and get it right. That's the best case scenario for all of us.
But hell yes I'm nervous! I believe anyone who isn't a bit naïve would have to be.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

More anxious then nervous. This is a long time waiting - Browns in the making for a kick butt team.
Heck even if we pick Trubisky at #1 (and WE ARE NOT, its GARRETT!) we got 12,33, 52 and 65 to get some excellent talent.
Love the new guys, like what they have done and what they are doing. We had one of the best FA period that I can remember we have a great draft class coming and we got a stash of picks next year as well and its suppose to be another very strong draft class!
We finally will be a CONTENDER! Thank goodness, its so hard to be the positive guy all these years...lol now I soon can become the synic! 
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off!
Go Browns!
CHRIST HAS RISEN!
GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!

Been watching NFL network most of the morning and they have been talking about the Browns taking Garrett #1 and trading up to get Trubisky, during a commercial break I flipped over to ESPN and I see that Kiper and McShay are both expecting the Browns to take Trubisky at #1. If they're dead set on taking Trubisky I would rather it be the NFL network scenario.

Yeah...Just hoping they don't Brown it up once again. At some point they have to turn all these picks into legit NFL players.
