    ha JMG doesn't surprise me at all that you want him

    I don't think he'll still be available at 17, and even if he is, I can't see y'all taking him.

    I mean sure Redskins could use a RB, but not more than a pass rusher--i.e. a LB or DE

    Just my opinion

    We have a strong group of linebackers though that's the least of our worries on defense. If I were us i'd trade up for Marshon Lattimore. He's the best corner in the draft by far and guaranteed to make an impact.

    Bills need to replace Gilmore. Even with him they got torched all year. If I were them i'd take a corner or O.J Howard.

    I honestly think the Browns take Trubinsky over Garrett...hes been moving up the boards like crazy and scouts are loving him right now

    Agreed

    I would love OJ Howard or Ohio State cornerback...

    Gilmore was overrated in my opinion...he was getting torched most of the time LOL don't know why Patriots picked him up...they see something I dont

    players coming out of college like Christian Mccaffrey are always so tricky to predict their outcome in the NFL...it really depends the system...

    he was really entertaining at Stanford....I definitely can see him being a good gadget player on the Saints...the Patriots would find use in him...I hope he has a solid career...his dad was a beast on Denver

    Yeah except now the Saints have Ingram and Peterson so they'd be doing too much at that position. I honestly think Mccafrey would do well on a team with a running scheme like Denver's or in a system like New England's. The patriots are known for plugging and playing the most abstract players and getting the most out of em.

    True, if he falls to the Patriots they will take him - Denver system also makes sense...McCraffrey problem is running through the tackles...you know he cant carry a big load in the nfl...he can be used as a slot receiver, punt returner...and easy dump off from the backfield for a screen pass...

    who do you think has a better NFL Career? Cook? Fournette? McCaffrey...

    I really like Cooks game even though he is predicted to go last out of the 3...Fournette has all the hype ever since he got to LSU

    I think Fournette is an AP esque back so to me he seems like he would have the ability to just throw a team on his back and rush for 2000 yards a season if he was performing well.

    Mccafrey reminds me of Reggie Bush so the system and how they implement him is clearly the most important thing when it would come to him putting up numbers.

    Dalvin Cook reminds me of Todd Gurley as sad as that may sound but he's getting a lot of comparisons to Jamaal Charles who had a great prime of his career. Cook could very well put up the best numbers with an offensive line that is seasoned and can create those giant holes with their size. I think he would fit well on Houston or Carolina.

    But to answer your question right now I think Fournette will have the best career out of the three. Watching him in college was a one of a kind experience.

    @Riley who you want first round? I think the best/most realistic pick for us is Taco Charlton. We desperately needed help at pass rush and this kid can defintley help us there. I'll be really happy if we grab him. If by some miracle Derek Barnett or Carl Lawson drop to us, I'll be doing back flips.

    I thought his stock fell tremendously after he didn't pass his drug test?

    Garrett No. 1 and Watson No. 12 is my dream scenario for the Browns. Just have a feeling they'll trade up for Trubisky.

    Realistically, I think we go CB. Adoree or someone like that. My guy is TJ Watt, and I have NO idea if he'll fall or not. This draft is so unpredictable.

    If not Watt give me Takk Mckinnley. Maybe you could talk be into Taco or Bowser with the first round pick but in all likelihood, if Watt/Takk aren't there at 28, I'd prolly go with whoever the top corner is.

    Problem with that is, you have a better chance of finding a decent CB with your 60 pick than you do finding a decent pass rusher there, so you'd rather use the first rounder on a rusher.

    It did, but a lot of mocks still have him going early. Mike Mayock, who's had some of the best/most accurate mock drafts over the years, has him going #10 still.
