Browns trade Eagles #2 overall pick

[sideon]

more like last year...Winston and Mariotta

They are not even Winston or Mariota They might be Chad Pennington at best.

Wow the Eagles screwed their future on a QB that will most likely just be an average QB.

 

[EMMITTnROY]

Since the Eagles were the main threat to take Zeke, I wonder if we could trade down to 8 with the Browns or to 9 with the Bucs (before the Giants pick at 10, basically) and still get Zeke. If we can drop 4 or 5 spots and still pick our guy, while picking up a 2nd rounder in the process, that would be outstanding.

But if that QB doesn't bust out and Romo is done in 2-3 years, we just cemented ourselves to getting our brains beat in by the Eagles while we scuffle around for a QB like we did in the early 2000s.

How do you figure? It's out of our hands. There's no guarantee that we could have done anything about it. Even if we had made an offer, the Browns/Rams didn't have to choose us. Or our offer may not have been good enough. Or if it was, someone could have bettered it. It's out of our hands.

And we've been an 8-8 team for a long time with a good QB that hardly was beating anybody's brains in. Just because they get a solid starter in place it doesn't mean they are going to be any good.

I think that if we trade down, it's probably to take a Pass Rusher but honestly, I don't know who that would be.

Here's hoping that Goff and Wentz are going to suck big time in the NFL. Both of them.

Nothing I believe in, though.

 

[CowboyWay]

Best news for Dallas this year. Wentz won't make it in this league and He's going to be an Eagle. Not to mention all the pics the Eagles had to give up.

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

I would think it'd have to be for Lynch, teams don't make moves up like this unless it's for a QB

 

[MRV52]

YES!!!! No QB at 4 what a great day.

I am just stating there is another option here than the Eagles having sacrified their future. They very well could have solidified their future.

 

[erod]

Wow, the Eagles are stupid. Lol

They don't even technically know who they are taking. The Rams' leftover?

I so hope the Cowboys were involved and drove the price up.

When he ends up being a top-five quarterback you'll remember this post .

That's assuming they actually get the QB they want. Another idiotic or head scratching part of the deal. There's no way they can like both QBs the same. Taking a huge risk they actually get the guy they want

 

[KingintheNorth]

Tunsil is the #1 player on a lot of teams' boards. He is getting Orlando Pace-type grades from some teams.

Ramsey is #1 on a few teams' boards as well, but as much as I like Ramsey, I'm not trading up for him.

 

[jazzcat22]

Now at 4 we have Ramsey and a DE with a drug history. Yay! Glad we didn't move up!

Unless they think they have the next all world LT. Too high for Lynch. For Tunsil or Ramsey

 

[Direwolf63]

On the day the Eagles moved to #8, I predicted they would move higher to draft a QB. Was basically laughed at because of the money they spent on Bradford and Daniels.

Unfortunately, I was right.

I am guessing they know who is going to be there.

 

[therock1982]

Tunsil is probably sat there at 4now,better get a whole.lotta phones in the war room,trade offers shud come.flying in

 

[DenCWBY]

Amazing deal for Cleveland my god.

All that for Wentz geeeeez.

All it takes is one SB to make it a good trade. Yes it's a lot, but baring any health issues, they just found their franchise QB for the next 12+ years and hopefully it will be another McNabb ending.
