Agreed.... that's why I don't want to trade down too far. I want to make sure we get the OL of our choice. Of course Ballard could fool me and take Chubb and we'd be using our 2nd round pick on an OL... tough to know this early in the process...
Yeah, we need to see what happens in Free Agency.

Expected this to happen. Only reason they would fire Del Rio is if they had Gruden locked up for the HC position.

I sure hope so.

This is a complete non-story. I'll believe the end of the New England dynasty when I see it.

Was doing some research and found this: Seems pretty accurate.
Historic Success Chart
The numbers show us the following outline for finding consistent starters:
1st Round - OL (83%) LB (70%) TE (67%) DB (64%) QB (63%) WR (58%) RB (58%) DL (58%)
2nd Round - OL (70%) LB (55%) TE (50%) WR (49%) DB (46%) QB (27%) DL (26%) RB (25%)
3rd Round - OL (40%) TE (39%) LB (34%) DL (27%) WR (25%) DB (24%) QB (17%) RB (16%)
4th Round - DL (37%) TE (33%) OL (29%) LB (16%) WR(12%) DB (11%) RB (11%) QB (8%)
5th Round - TE (32%) DB (17%) WR (16%) OL (16%) DL (13%) RB (9%) LB (4%) QB (0%)
6th Round - TE (26%) OL (16%) DL (13%) WR (9%) DB (8%) RB (6%) LB (5%) QB (0%)
7th Round - DB (11%) OL (9%) QB (6%) WR (5%) DL (3%) LB (2%) RB (0%) TE (0%)
Team needs bolded. Looks like OL is the most reliable 1st round pick. RB and DL have the same success rate. This does show that in fact that elite QB's don't grow on trees. It's only 63% in the first round to have a consistent starter, let alone high quality or elite quarterbacks.

Here's the transcript:
COLIN COWHERD: Now let me tell you the first three picks in the NFL draft. This is perfect. If these teams don't do what I say here, it-- they're *ic.
The first pick is Cleveland. You take Sam Darnold. Even though he grew up on the beach in California, he has sort of a Midwest ethos and a Midwest personality. In a cold division, he's a big, strong, physical, humble kid. He's got a Midwest ethos.
Go to Baltimore, go to Pittsburgh, go to Cincinnati. He's tougher, as they say, than a $4 steak. He's perfect for Cleveland. I know I'm saying that. He's perfect for Cleveland.
Josh Rosen should go, number two, to the Giants. He's coastal. He will not be overwhelmed by the sophistication or the pressure of New York.
He comes from some money. He's a West Coast kid. They vacation in the-- you know, the Nantucket region.
These are smart people. Not to say Darnold's not, but he's a big city kid. He can handle "The New York Times," "The New York Post," the New York media, the New York fans. He's like Eli. He can handle it.
And number three, Saquon Barkley should go to Indianapolis, who has the third pick. They'd be silly not to take him. We all know that every quarterback's better with a running game. Andrew Luck's been looking for a co-host in that backfield for five years. He's finally got one.
And let me tell you, if they draft Barkley, with Luck, write it down. Congrats, Tennessee, Jags. Your run's over. They'll dominate that division for eight years in Indianapolis. Because Barkley's a home run at a running back.

Also there's a transcript below the video @dgambill.

Colin Cowherd gives his first three picks to the draft and says that they are obvious. Do you agree?

Very interested about this guy. His numbers at the combine should be rather impressive. How he interviews will be key.
I see what you did there, key...

Arden Key just declared for the 2018 draft.

Sounds like we could have ourselves a trading partner...

What if they take Barkley 1st and Nelson 4th? Would this forum explode?
That actually could happen. The Browns could go after Kirk Cousins or another QB in Free Agency and then go ahead and try to build around him. Of course for them to get Nelson @ 4 that would mean that we would pass on him.

UCF will hold a parade as the Knights athletic director claims a national championship for his program.
An excerpt from the article:
"UCF also isn't the first school to dispute a national championship. Alabama, for instance, recognizes 1973 as a championship year. The coaches' poll did name the Crimson Tide No. 1 that year, but voting took place before they lost to Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl. The AP voted the Fighting Irish No. 1 and Alabama fourth after the season."
UCF national champs anyone?

I'm not sure if Harold Landry will be available in the mid-2nd. Also I know Connor Williams won't be there in the 4th. An injury can have you drop on team's draft boards but not 3 rounds. Besides that I like it.
