Mike Williams to the Titans @ 5 is a slam dunk, its a bonus pick for them and they need a WR1. agree they also need CB, but theres about 10 with top 2 round grades so they can do that with their 18th overall. Williams wont be there that far down, WR is thin

CB is crazy this year

Humphrey
Lattimore
Tankersley
King
White
Jackson
Tabor/Wilson
Jones
Elder

guys like Elder and Jourdan Lewis would easily go late 1st, early 2nd in most drafts but they could slide a bit. workouts gonna mean everything

S is my fav position in the game, but i dont think those 2 guys are worth top 5 picks

Adams is a great tackler, but i cant really take a box safety top 5.he could play FS, but still has to show me more with forcing turnovers. same with Peppers, he cant cover so he has to be an OLB/SS hybrid. is he going to hold up playing LB in the NFL @ 210 lbs? hasnt been done in the modern era

give me Evans from A&M or Hooker if im going high on a safety, they can roam the field and create turnovers. like Baker but prolly a 2nd rounder, Marcus Maye is a standard box S prolly 3rd-4th round

I really don't care that McShay and Kiper aren't high on QBs this year.

If Hue Jackson thinks he's going to build a winner in Cleveland with Cody Kessler, good luck.
A QB will be drafted in the 1st round. And if Watson has a big game next week like he did against Bama last year...you bet your ass someone is taking him early in April.

Browns could sure up other positions. Next year there still gonna be bad anyway and you have a much much better qb class

Taking a qb top 10 this year is a huge ass reach

Todd McShay's top 5


1. Browns:
Alabama DE Jonathan Allen

2. 49ers: Texas A&M DE/OLB Myles Garrett

3. Jaguars: LSU S Jamal Adams

4. Bears: Michigan OLB/S Jabrill Peppers

5. Titans (from Rams): Ohio State CB Marshon Lattimore


These QBs are :hhh:

Fournette is the best player in the draft but he comes with a risk. He'll be a franchise changer if and only if he works on his patiences. If he gets that he'll be the best back in the league. I think Cook can be equally as good, but he doesn't bring the physicality that LF does.

If I had the top pick I'd take Johnathon Allen. He's a low risk high reward prospect. He might end up being a dominant player but at the very least he'll be pretty good.

I think Mike Williams will be special, his Athletcism combined with his physicality is :whew: he should go top 5. Jamal Adams might be the best safety in the league one day, Tim Williams has a ton of potential too.

Cooks much better in today's NFL then Fournette imo because of his all around versatility including the passing game

If this was 20 years ago then the bruising i formation back should go higher but not in today's game

I love Hooker's game, but didn't he say he's going back to school?

What has Peppers show on the field that makes him top 5, sheeeeeeit even top 20. I can get an explosive kick returner in the 5th round.
He did say as of when he was asked that ? He was coming back. Everybody thinks he is going to declare though. Cant see him passing up a potential top 15 pick

Humphrey Jones or King at CB for us and im :blessed:
It's still early so who knows how things will work out. Guys are going to shoot up and down the board a lot from now till the draft, but team King is who I like right now.

I think he can step in and play next year

Myles Garrett @O.iatlhawksfan said he got next in New Orleans :blessed:
:mjlol: I said that?
Mcahay is a dumbass. Two safeties top 5? :gucci: I like Adams but he's not a transcendent safety. I won't even start on Peppers again. If you not snaggin interceptions at safety in college you shouldn't go top 5.
Adams shut down every TE he faced this year. Engram, Oj Howard, Sprinkle, and the hitukini kid. People rave about his tackling ability but his cover skill is elite. His instincts are right up there with the honey badger

What's the chances of Mike Williams falling all the way down to #13?:jbhmm:


I want the Cardinals to draft him.He kinda reminds me of Fitz.

Next on my list would be Reuben Foster or Marshon Lattimore.

Dark horse picks----Deshaun Watson...Deshone Kizer

There a really good chance Williams will be there but it's gonna depend on the combine

I think 13(Zona)and 14(Philly) are probably where he's slotted right now

With a great combine I could see him moving up to possibly the Carolina or Chargers pick

With a disappointing combine I could see him dropping into the 20s

Hue Jackson just went 1-15 for a franchise that has been awful for a long time.
I feel that Hue should have at least 4 years to rebuild, but we all know how this league works.

If Hue wins 4 or 5 games next season, then drafts a QB going into his 3rd coaching year...are the Browns and their fans going to be okay with another 2 years of rebuilding? Is Hue going to survive that?
I'm not so sure.
