I'm telling you. It's only a matter of time before Paul DePodesta turn the Browns around.

I wonder if the Eagles made it contingent on Wentz (whom they supposedly like more than Goff) being available. If I were the Rams and I thought the two QBs were nearly equal, I would be leaking info that we were targeting Wentz. Could pressure the Eagles to trade up one spot.


Sal Pal just said on ESPN Radio that the Eagles don't make that move unless they have confirmation of the Rams taking Goff.

I just don't get it, Wentz and Goff are not going to be elite QBs. Maybe dependable starters. What might be even funnier is when Cleveland and Tennessee get nothing really of value even with all the extra picks. Kinda like how Washington got all of New Orleans 97 draft for Ricky Williams and did not draft anyone of note.

Nope...

"Chargers talking about trading No.3 pick. Trading of top 3 picks in same draft has happened 3x in modern draft era. 1967, 1975, 1997."

Tunsil just dropped out the top 5 because of this trade. Elliot probably goes to the Giants who need a RB.

I thought the Eagles made a good trade to get to #8 trading away players like Maxwell who was due a lot of money. But I think that's a lot to give away to move up to #2.

I'm sure some draft expert said the same about Rodgers, Brees, Wilson, etc.

They used the Saints 1st rounder in 1999 to move up and get Champ Bailey and they also drafted LaVar Arrington with the Saints pick the following year. They received plenty of value from that trade.

Bo Callahan has some character flaws. Nobody went to his birthday party. Cleveland didn't think he was a leader

Has there ever been a team to have this many 1st rounders the last couple of years? And also completely screw them up.... Just think if they would have hit on a few!
