Boomer's source probably wasn't at Darmold's Pro Day

Don't see anyway Cleveland passes on Darnold.

Eric from BBI : Admin : 3/22/2018 10:04 am : link
do so many people think the Pro Day puts Darnold over the top? It's a Pro Day.
I'm pretty sure he had Allen going to Browns  
ZogZerg : 3/22/2018 10:05 am : link
at #1 the other day.

They spent a lot of time and energy with Darnold yesterday for a team not taking him.

Because he looked good throwing with shorts and t-shirt. I have no idea how a pro-day has so much weight.
I bet

Because NFL network went gaga over the Rain!!
and how awesome he looked throwing the ball all wet in shorts, tshirt, & hat
The only certainty about the #1 pick...  
BamaBlue : 3/22/2018 10:07 am : link
the Browns will find a way to completely screw it up. They have a disaster-filled portfolio of buffoonery on their side.
I would love this  
yankeeslover : 3/22/2018 10:08 am : link
But no way does Cleveland pass up a QB at one. Do they?
So, was this "asshat" source  
ZogZerg : 3/22/2018 10:08 am : link
for the browns, giants, jets, or all 3?

That is some source!

Agreed.. Pro Day's can only have a negative impact (injury or just flat out stinks).. Pro Day's are not going to vault a guy to the top.
I suppose...  
Strip-Sack : 3/22/2018 10:08 am : link
the Browns owner hanging with Darnolds parents in the stands could be an elaborate “smokescreen” along with the signing Hyde but I have my doubts...

It was the rain, silly. He got wet and the conclusion is that he'll be great. Canton is carving his bust.

Not Pro Day talk, but some reports going around now expect Darnold to go #1.

I mean, it's all smoke now until that day comes, but I will not be surprised he goes first.

Hyde signing has nothing to do with Barkley or any other RB they'll draft.

I agree about pro days but the Browns owner not only went to his pro day but also sat in the stands in the rain the entire time with Darnold's parents. Obviously that doesn't guarantee anything but I do think it means something.
Give me Darnold!  
est1986 : 3/22/2018 10:39 am : link
Give me Darnold!
I could see the Browns picking Barkley  
NorwoodWideRight : 3/22/2018 10:44 am : link
if they're worried the Giants might take him, and they're still guaranteed a QB at #4. They could make the argument they were targeting Allen the entire time, that he has tremendous upside, blah, blah, blah.
I'm sure there is an Asshat

Darnold was always the projected #1.
He has a guy  
Mike from Ohio : 3/22/2018 10:46 am : link
that has spoken to each of those teams and they all disclosed what they play to do in the draft?

That didn't happen. He is guessing just like everyone else.
Yeah I'm sure  
ryanmkeane : 3/22/2018 10:47 am : link
the Browns owner sitting with Darnold's parents during his pro day means they are taking Barkley at 1
Let's face it, the Browns are the Browns for a reason...  
Andy in Halifax : 3/22/2018 10:49 am : link
They will take Allen at #1 (he will bust magnificently) and then come back at #4 and take a decent player who won't help them win games because they have a black hole at QB causing them to suck.

Let's not forget, they picked up a decent GM this off-season. IMO, we will be seeing a new Browns approach this year

Well, it's also a day where organizations tend to fall in love with a certain prospect, much like your average fan.
That would be a dream scenario...  
bw in dc : 3/22/2018 11:00 am : link
if the Browns draft Barkley #1.


The BBI Barkley Brigade will be devastated, but the future of the team will be better situated...
If we keep dropping “hints”  
Dave on the UWS : 3/22/2018 11:00 am : link
That Barkley is the guy for us I could see this happening. Also Cleveland would have to have Allen and Darnold as a pick em

Why does he need a "smokescreen"? He has the number one pick. He can take whoever he wants!

I really want the browns to take Barkley. There’s a stupid selfish part of me that wants Barkley here even though I do believe things would be better long term if we have qb pick of the litter.
People were talking about the pro day

Don’t be so sure the new regime actually seems to know what they are doing
If the Browns pass on a QB at #1...  
Matt G : 3/22/2018 1:24 pm : link
And risk losing their target between at #2 and/or #3, they are going to get absolutely skewered... Especially after having recently passed on Carson Wentz...
with jpp trade  
msh : 3/22/2018 2:09 pm : link
it looks far more likely the giants target chubb after a move back than take a QB and i assume cleveland is targeting darnold and barkley with thier picks at 1 and 4 the extra picks on the move back they look for wynn or hernandez to finish the OL rebuild and possibly add one of the other good RB like guice or michel in that senario

Well I hope Dorsey and the Browns look at this trade exactly like you do because I think it's Chubb at #4 they've been targeting all along and not Barkley. I see them wanting to team Chubb up with Garrett and set their DE position up for years while getting a RB if they want one sometime in the 2nd Rd.

Fearing the Giants taking Chubb might be exactly what it takes for them to offer picks to move up to #2, and allows DG to still get his guy at 4 ( assuming he doesn't want a QB ) and stockpile a couple of sweet picks.
