NFL Draft Eve Debate

Submitted by Trip McNeely on

Over the last few weeks I’ve had an ongoing debate with a few friends. What should the Browns do with the 1st and 4th picks?

I am on the side of take Barkley number one and then whatever QB is left that you like best. I know this is a little unconventional, but I have my reasons.

  1. It’s the Browns and you know that no matter where they take a QB in the draft he won’t pan out.
  2. There is no “sure thing” at QB in this draft. Now yes, I understand no draft pick is a sure thing but there are some players you know will at least be decent NFL players
  3. If you hit on Barkley and the QB you are set for at least ten years at two very important positions.
  4. It’s the first and fourth pick! There will still be a valuable pick at QB with the fourth spot. If it was the first and say 24th pick I would say take a QB all day long

I could go on and on, but I won’t. Just curious what people think the Browns should do with their picks? Do you agree with me? Should they take a QB first? Should they trade both picks for even more draft picks? I can’t remember a draft where a team had picks this close together this early.
