Not that big on Skov. I prefer Borland (WI) or Bullough (MSU)
I would of stayed put and taken Matthews. JMHO.
Do love getting Teddy and Fuller in round 1 though.

Am I the only one that pronounces hyperbole "Hyper-bowl" instead of "hy-per-bo-le"?

I can see the draft going like this..
4. Sammy Watkins 26 Bortles or Bridgewater will fall a long way to us. if not, Ryan Shazier should be ours 32 or 35 Xavier Su'a-Filo or Carr if the other 2 are gone.
I can also see the draft going 4 million other directions.
this may be the most difficult drafts to predict
I could even see manziel going 4 and lee going 26 and we grab Xavier Su'a-Filo at 32 or 35
the Browns this year have truly done a great job of confusing everyone.
for once... we have a lot of different options. it's kind of nice.
Hunter + Dart = This is the way.

Oh so true! Opinions (mocks, player evaluations) are so varied that it is impossible for the layman (draftnik) to get a handle on it. There seems to be no consensus...

See there's that "insert name here" attitude regarding QB's. These two QB's are starkly different. The QB isn't the position that you simply insert a name. You need a QB that fits what you're trying to do and have them ranked. Not say, "Oh well, we'll take what ever is left".

I don't see how anyone thinks one of the 3 top QBs will fall to 26.
Houston, Jacksonville, TB, Minnesota, Tennessee, and Arizona could ALL be looking at a QB, and if they don't take one with their first picks, they KNOW they'll have to jump us a 26 if someone did start to fall...
I'm pretty sure we're ganna end up with Carr at 26. And I don't like it.

I doubt Carr will be available at 6, let alone 26... so maybe that will make you feel better

4- Mike Evans WR Texas A&M- hearing his name mentioned a lot..
26-Teddy Bridgewater QB Louisville-hearing he might be there , Browns might trade up
35-Darqueze Dennard CB MSU-heard he could slide into the second,,
71-Antonio Richardson OT Tennessee
83- Terrance West RB Towsen St
106- Marcus Martin OL USC
127-Dion Bailey S USC
145-Preston Brown LB Louisville
180-Deandre Coleman DT CAL
218-Brandon Thomas OG Clemson

As have I.
Early last week on a couple of radio shows; many analysts mentioning it on twitter, and just this morning Matt Miller from Bleacher Report put it on his final mock draft-- I guess you can't teach 6'6 225lbs with a great vertical. Everything is circling around #26 for that QB selection, whether using it or packaging up a trade with it.
I feel like I said this last year, but this may be the draft with the most "unknowns" for me.
At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

I could live with that.. I read that the Browns have Evans rated above Watkins too...

Not a mock, but I put together my top 50 for the Browns (so I include how they fit in on this team). I think the rankings are pretty similar to the mass media ones (it's almost hard not to do that at this stage) - but there are a few twists in there:
1.) Jadeveon Clowney, DE/OLB, South Carolina 2.) Greg Robinson, OT, Auburn 3.) Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson 4.) Teddy Bridgewater, QB, Louisville 5.) Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan 6.) Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M 7.) Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M 8.) Blake Bortles, QB, Central Florida 9.) Kyle Fuller, CB, Virginia Tech 10.) Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma State 11.) Brandin Cooks, WR, Oregon State 12.) Khalil Mack, OLB, Buffalo 13.) Calvin Pryor, FS, Louisville 14.) Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A&M 15.) Eric Ebron, TE, UNC 16.) Anthony Barr, OLB, UCLA 17.) Odell Beckham, WR, LSU 18.) Marquise Lee, WR, USC 19.) Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix, FS, Alabama 20.) Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh 21.) Zack Martin, OT, Notre Dame 22.) Jason Verrett, CB, TCU 23.) Darqueze Dennard, CB, Michigan State 24.) Cody Latimer, WR, Indiana 25.) Davante Adams, WR, Fresno State 26.) C.J. Mosley, ILB, Alabama 27.) Marcus Smith, OLB, Louisville 28.) Joel Bitonio, OG, Nevada 29.) Dee Ford, OLB, Auburn 30.) Morgan Moses, OT, Virginia 31.) Jimmy Garapolo, QB, Eastern Illinois 32.) Derek Carr, QB, Fresno State 33.) Jeremiah Attaochu, OLB, Georgia Tech 34.) Louis Nix, NT, Notre Dame 35.) Jordan Matthews, WR, Vanderbilt 36.) Bruce Ellington, WR, South Carolina 37.) Phillip Gaines, CB, Rice 38.) Bradley Roby, CB, Ohio State 39.) Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Florida State 40.) Jace Amaro, TE, Texas Tech 41.) Cyrus Kouandjio, OT, Alabama 42.) Ryan Shazier, ILB, Ohio State 43.) Chris Borland, ILB, Wisconsin 44.) Allen Robinson, WR, Penn State 45.) Donte Moncrief, WR, Rutgers 46.) Xavier Su’a-Filo, OG, UCLA 47.) Zach Mettenberger, QB, LSU 48.) Trai Turner, OG, LSU 49.) Baushaud Breeland, CB, Clemson 50.) Austin Sefarin-Jenkings, TE, Washington

JC..I hate to put trades in there, but I'm sensing we move around in the 1st. I won't predict our partners.
1A. Bortles (trade back from 4?) 1B. Dennard (trade up from 26?) 2nd. Borland 3A. Bashaud Breeland, CB Clemson 3B. Travis Swanson G, Arkansas 4A. C.J. Fiedorowicz, TE, Iowa 4B. Dri Archer, RB Kent St
That exhausts my knowledge. No idea on the rest!

OK, here's my guess ..... which means that none of this will happen: #4 traded and our 3rd traded to Atlanta for #6 and their 2nd. Hefty price, but they have paid the hefty price for their guy in the past. #4 Traded to Atlanta #6 Blake Bortles: QB #26 CJ Mosley: ILB #32 Verrett: CB (Trade to us from Seattle for our 2nd and our 4th) #35 Traded to Seattle #37 Kelvin Benjamin: WR #71 Traded to Atlanta #83 Pierre Desir: CB #106: Traded to Seattle #127: Cyril Richardson: G #145 Preston Brown: ILB #180 Jake Murphy: TE #218 Deon Bromfield: S I should add that I do not expect us to leave this draft with even 9 players. I suspect that we will try to trade up in a 2 for 1 proposition at least once, and try to wind up around 8 players of higher quality. However, this is my guess, so this is absolutely guaranteed NOT to happen.

Where can I sign off on this to make it happen?
IF we did take Bortles, I heard we'd probably have to expect him to sit a full year. Or at least we should expect that. A guy like him needs a full year of polish before going in. Hoyer could fill that gap, hopefully.

Knowing our Browns...we will probably take CJ Mosley #4 overall hahaha I hope not...I would like a slight trade down pick up our guy (Bridgewater?) Followed by Brandin Cooks at 26 overall...then address the Oline CB/S and ILB
