Is JRJR even any good

Big Ol Marsh Pussy

Bold Prediction: The Browns trade up to #1 by giving the Texans their first round picks through 2016, with the intention of drafting JFF. Last-minute research, however, finds significant character flaws with Manziel, and the Browns select Khalil Mack, much to the chagrin of the fanbase. After Manziel falls to 3, the Browns convince the Jaguars to give them the 3rd overall pick for their second rounders through 2016. They then, in turn, flip #3 to the Texans, who are feeling the heat from their fans for trading away the right to draft Johnny Football, for all their first rounders back. After the Texans take Manziel, with their original 4th overall pick, Browns management finally listens to a pleading Mike Pettine and get him some offensive help in the form of Sammy Watkins.

Also, for some reason, Ray Farmer's dad dies and he fucks a salary cap analyst.

Lewan could suck as any pick. He plays with really serious aggression but never really pushed people back and at his size he really should. Also he had a ton of blocking help from the TE even though it seemed like he didn't need it. Who knows how he'll hold up with out that support. Also he's a total loving dickhead which can be an issue when you play the position that likely requires the most cooperation of any in football.

I don't think what I said is in conflict with what you just said, other than I'd change "should" all be starters at RT instead to "could" (with the exception of James, who should).

Well, the Bucs aren't eligible for Hard Knocks, and Lovie has complete control over the roster, so I am assuming that also means final say in draft picks.

Dudes I would be satisfied with if we trade up:

Justin Gilbert
Darqueze Dennard
Mike Evans (if he somehow falls out of the top ten, which I doubt)
Odell Beckham, Jr.
Marquise Lee


Dudes I would be satisfied with if we stay at 30:

Kyle Fuller
Jason Verrett
Bradley Roby
Davante Adams
Jimmie Ward
Demarcus Lawrence
Zack Martin
Xavier Su'a-Filo

Injured dudes they'll probably try to pick up and stash for a year:

Dominique Easley (pleeeease)
Brandon Thomas
Aaron Colvin

Really, the only thing that would upset me is if they took Benjamin in the first round. I'd even be OK if they dealt back with Cleveland and took him at 35.

I like it. My list would be pretty much the same, but skip Kyle Fuller and add Jaylin Watkins or Lamarcus Joyner instead - and I'd pass on Dennard for Brandin Cooks on the trade up list.

I'm looking forward to getting super excited tomorrow after a big trade, or being completely bored when they trade out of the round entirely.

I like Joyner but not in the first, like Verrett he's probably limited to the slot in the NFL but I don't like his game as much. Cooks I have some reservations about but I wouldn't mind them taking him, I just expect him to go between the 10-20 range and 30, so if they did a smaller trade up and snagged him that would be fine.

Still super bummed Ifo didn't declare.
