Tabloid Fodder: Browns Make a Smart NFL Move

[Striker]

Speaking of crazy, I'm starting to think the new Browns GM (Sashi Brown) might know what he's doing. Am I crazy?

Maybe a little. There's still lots of time for them to find that Browns way to lose.

I like Wentz. To me he's a better prospect than Bortles or any QB in that class. He's not a can't miss like Luck though. I had Mariota first last year. He'd be a tick above Wentz. Goff is similar to Matt Ryan.

And this is why we are some spoiled muthafuckahs.

And this is why we are some spoiled muthafuckahs.

They've only had 8 different in the last three years. Three years back, the Packers had 4 different starters in five weeks!

[Bretsky]

I have a question for those of you that follow the draft build up much more closely than I do.

Realistically, how are these two guys evaluated compared to some of the big-name quarterbacks of previous years? Are these two considered "special" in any way?

I iike Wentz; compare his favorably to Bortles. Not a Lueck though; but I'm not sure that ends up being a terrible deal.

Yes but we won the Division that year, did we not?

Exactly, so who needs stability at QB?

Browns trade second overall pick to the Eagles for the 8th overall and a few more picks. Apparently their new guy in charge realizes they need lots of help to be competitive.

I don't know who their QB is right now (honestly don't remember and too lazy to care), but if they weren't convinced Wentz or Goff was it, this was a great move.

Didn't the Browns sign RG3 recently?

Yes.

Rodgers, Wallace, Tolzien and Flynn - good times!

Flynn spent time with NE, the Jets and NO last season. Wow

He has to be better than anybody they've had there for a long time.

The exact details of the trade:

The Eagles better get this right.

Their fans aren't impressed.

A smart move by Cleveland.

[ThunderDan]

What a horrible trade for Philly.

Chip Kelly drained the team of "real" talent and now just when they need draft picks to make up for the last few years they trade them away.
