Or possibly "settled enough." TT may help that. Do we need him to flat out win by himself?
We need to "see what we have really" full go. Just think this was odd.

Not too excited about this. But maybe he will be good. Who knows.
I have no trust in Dorsey. He doesn’t deserve any. Not until the Browns start winning games. Right now he has zero wins... that’s the way I see it. Trust comes with winning. I’ll trust him if he racks up some winning seasons for us, and then makes picks I feel may be good/bad/whatever, that’s when I’ll say “I trust him.” Otherwise he is just another new front office guy to me.

You seem to be considering height as the only measuring stick to whether or not a QB will be good, that is a mistake. Yea, if you are selecting late in the 1st round. If you have th #1 pick and your team has won 1 game in 2 years and did not even win a game last year I want my team to select a franchise style QB Darnold or Rosen. This pick was pathetic. Baker Mayfield is the best Qb out of this draft class, the most accurate, the guy that won the Heisman, the guy that won the most and had the best td to int ratio. Did the best in his bowl games. Rosen led the Bruins to 6-5 last year and hadn't played in a bowl since 3 years ago. Dorsey was hired to get the QB position settled. I think they may finally have the Qb position settled. Hoping for the best. We will get the QB position settled in 2 years when Dorsey gets fired and the team falls for Fromm. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Cannot believe we fired Sashi for this. What a terrible draft. So much promise gone. What are you... six years old? I think that everybody has an idea how you feel... do you really have to continue the crying and whining? Go watch some highlights and educate yourself... Jeez...

Basically the Browns chose two players not in the top 5 of the draft. Essentially the top of the draft happened AROUND the Browns. The other teams got a winning lottery tickets handed to them. We took the third or forth best QB, by most analyst’s standards, first.
I like Ward I just wish we could have moved back and gotten him. I can live with the pick if he turns into a true stud. But if Chubb goes off in Denver it’s going to tough to swallow.
It’s still baffling to me how we can bring one GM after another and end up doing the same type of things in the draft.

Baker will be on Jimmy Kimmel tonight. I don't think he'll be there in person though. Usually the guys are in Cleveland the day after the draft. No way he's flying from Texas to LA to Cleveland, right?

I just can't believe that we went 1-31 for 2 years, and then, when we are supposed to get the payoff this draft, we take 2 mediocre 1st round talents.
Say what you want: they might turn out to be great players, but they are both mid-level 1st round prospects! There is no denying that!
Typical Browns; somehow we think we are smarter than every other team out there. History has proven otherwise. I have absolutely no faith in Dorsey until we start winning games. This just looks like more of the same to me.

Meh. We hired Dorsey to be smarter than the rest of the league, so hopefully he will be.

Did Baker Mayfield actually get up on stage and hold the Browns Jersey up?
Because neither myself, nor my friends, recall seeing him any where in the draft building.
Were we all just completely irate and blinded by anger that we missed it?

You have a once in a lifetime opportunity to be picked in the first round of the draft. That never happens again. It is a massive achievement. And you choose to sit at home?

No, he wanted to do the same thing Joe Thomas and Miles Garrett did, because those were first rounders that actually worked for us.

Is he on Jimmy Kimmel? And it's live? As in Mayfield had time to fly to whereever and be on that damn show, and he couldn't be bothered to show up at the draft?
Seriously?

Jesus you all are a bunch of babies...I didn't want either Baker or Ward, but they're PROSPECTS! This whole thing is starting to remind me of the irrationality surrounding college FB recruiting. Let's just see what we see once the ball is snapped in September before we write them off, shall we?
Browns fans are born with it...

Kimmel just ribbed the Cleveland Browns a bit and asked if Baker would guarantee a win next year. Baker didn't and it was all really awkward.

I do know that he has as much of a chance as any of the others. They all have issues guys and it's a crap shoot for sure.

I'm a little mad about this pick.
Why do we want some shrimpy QB who spends all his time grabbing his dick and flipping off cheerleaders. Manziel 2.0
There were only 3 other better QB prospects.
And then we pick some reach CB at 4.
Oh dear lord help me.
Browns being Browns.
I shall do mental exercises to prepare for another 0-16 parade next season.

Manziel at least never tried to run from the damn cops and get tackled and beat up then cry about like a wimp and try to act like he didn’t know what he done wrong.
Uhh...Manziel had the police chasing him with a helicopter after he beat his g/f.. Link Comparisons to Manziel are so lazy.
