They have not had a QB in forever. They watched Goff and Wentz. We may have all of these QB with a similar grade but the key person making this decision is going to favor a certain talent/skillset/measurable and all these QBs are very different. Cleveland is going to favor one and my guess, playing in that division, they are going to see the similarities in Big Ben. They will take Allen at 1, he will not be there at 4. He will be taken at 2 or 3 if they take Barkley at one and not necessarily by the team currently drafting there. I think it is crazy to think that they will be like, meh, we will take the sloppy thirds at 4 for the most important position in all of sports, nope not buying it.

I think it's going to be Darnold with their 1st pick.

I could buy that too, don't think Rosen or Mayfield go at 1, thinking Darnold or Allen. NFL likes big, I am not an Allen, think he will bust, but I see NFL falling more and more in love with him as time goes by. It is easy to talk yourself into that Size/Arm.
I trade down from 4 and grab Lamar Jackson. They would have their developmental guy and the depth at QB to do some really interesting things on offense with a mobile QB.

If they hadn't done that last time and look stupid because of it, I might agree. Kizer similar to Jackson.
In trading up to get a QB. Buffalo has two 1s and two 2s and two 3s
In mocks re the Giants that involve double trade, the Bills are more likely to do that for their QB; sell the 22+ to get to some pick close to #10, then the 21++ to get their guy, unless he/ one of them they like falls that far somehow; since other teams after #7 seem set +/- at QB.

Allen will have to blow them away at his Pro Day and conversely Darnold would have to really have a bad Pro Day session for Darnold to fall out of #1. I believe it will still come down to the Giants seeing Barkley and Rosen there at 2, and then having to make their choice.
Seems like the Browns are locked into Barkley at 1 to me. Â
and the best they can do is Taylor? I get that he's a stop gap but still. There must be better competitive options in the meantime. Or, you know, for a franchise that has sucked at QB forever, they can just spend and get the sure thing in Cousins.

Because they also have Kizer, it's precisely why that thought crossed my mind. You would need to go 3 deep at QB if you start gameplanning to run your QB consistently. I highly doubt that's their plan but it would be an incredibly interesting experiment, especially when you factor in the surprising amount of talent on that offense.

Unless Cousins doesn't want to go there.
The only thing that seems evident in this draft is expectations will Â
They will still take a QB in the first round but now they might wait until the 4th pick. This could be great news for the Giants but bad news for Barkley fans.

Why would they wait until the 4th pick and run the risk of missing out on their highest graded QB?

You pick your best QB prospect at 1 and there will be no hoopla surrounding the decision. Don't give Cousins a Garrapolo deal when the team that knows him best would not. Get and excellent, financially controlled QB and win like Seattle has. I think what they are is looking very very good and not signing Cousins to a megadeal is the best part of it. They are going to have room and get some really good buys if they are patient.

Agree with you there, if they live by that kind of QB they better have at least 2.
Cleveland selects their QB at 1 or 4. It only tells us that Taylor is short-term and they're going to take a quarterback. They still need to get this pick right. Cleveland is still trying to select their that QB that is going to be the face of the franchise for the next 10 years. They can't screw this up. Remember. They have 3 second round draft picks that they can also use for on arunning back. By no means does this is a guarantee that Barkley goes #1.

Exactly. I don't see any way they aren't drafting at QB at 1 which I believe is Darnold.
RE: Think this means they’re taking Barkley at 1 Â
Why 4? They would risk missing out on their highest rated QB.
Think they would rather not miss out on their highest rated player in the draft which looks like Barkley.
They've been searching for a QB for ever and traded away their chances at Wentz and Watson. Whoever they rate the highest at QB has to be their 1st pick priority.
Probably Barkley and Josh Allen/Darnold at 4 now. They still need a QB- Taylor is nothing more than a placeholder IMO.
Will the Browns have any picks left by the end of the weekend?
I hope so, but I doubt it.
They traded picks for a serviceable QB and a WR. They have Kizer, whom they seem to still like. They're looking at
Taylor/Kizer
Barkley
Gordon
Landry
Njoku
Pretty good weapons around those so-so QBs.
a QB at 1 now maybe?
Yet some are insistent on trading down...
I would need every single one of those picks and next years first.

I imagine that means they'll be taking Barkley.

I think it's the other way around. They will select Darnold at 1, and if he's there Barkley at 4.
Does our #2 yield buffalos 1s and 2s
I’m such a homer but I still feel like it’s not enough
Perhaps they are a surprise player in the Cousins sweepstakes...?

They're going Taylor at 1 and Nelson/Chubb/Fitzpatrick at 4.

Taylor is a bridge that's all in my opinion. They need a franchise QB, and will have to draft him at #1 to get their pick of the QB class.
