I like the positions you targeted and the players (except for the 1st overall pick). No way McGlinchey lasts into round 2.
IMO if the Giants go for the fools gold instead of drafting a QB at 2 we can trade out of 4 with the Broncos moving down 1 spot, getting the exact same player we’d have gotten at 4, and netting a goldmine of picks. There are 3 QB’s worthy of a top 5 pick in this draft. Hint: None of them are named Josh Allen. 🙂

You might want to watch this draft alone.
Away from your home, and family.
You’re going to yell a lot, swear like an imprisoned murderer, and unless you find a way to gain your composure (which I doubt) will be engaging in riotous, maniacal destruction of property on a scale that would probably make it into a movie starring the Rock that’s directed by Michael Bay.
With all due respect, Ice, I think it’s entirely plausible that the Browns draft Josh Allen first overall. What gets me is how certain “pundits” are looking at Sam Darnold as the “safe” pick. I fail to see the “logic” that a quarterback who does not work well within the framework of structure and timing inside the pocket and would rather escape the pocket to try and make something happen should be the first overall pick. I also fail to see the “logic” when the same player in question has trouble seeing the entire field and is prone to turning over the football, whether by way of an interception or by fumble on numerous occasions. Ball security is of the utmost importance in football – and even more so at the NFL level. One thing that Allen did far better than Sam Darnold is take care of the football. Allen’s physical skills are also by far and away better than those of Darnold. Now, if you want to present the argument that either Josh Rosen or Baker Mayfield would be a better NFL quarterback; then I’d at least be willing to listen to your case.
Am I going mad, or did the word THINK escape your lips? You were not hired for your brains, you hippopotamic landmass!

I appreciate you recognizing my genius for what it is (Barkley/Allen combo in a Ruth points to the fences pose) but I hope that you’ll be online from a Holiday Inn. Outside of Florida.
It’s going to be difficult to accept the full brunt of my mind melting awesomeness in such a large capacity. I don’t want any loss of life or collateral damage to your property.

I don’t have your pedigree Wunkle, such as nailing exact picks including trades from previous drafts. So unlike when I disagree with Shooter or Soup, when I disagree with you I do so at my own risk. But no one will ever be able to convince me that Josh Allen is worthy of a top 20 pick in the draft except for Josh Allen, and he can only do it by being amazing on the NFL field. He’s an inaccurate QB with a cannon arm and no touch on the ball. Playing against the Fighting Cross-stitchers of the East Westbury College of Textiles he can get away with it. Playing against the Steelers he won’t. He only has one thing going for him; he can throw the ball 80 yards. Aside from that he’s a 5-6th round QB.
Pedigree, schmedigree . . . I’m just a Joe-Bag-O-Donuts like the rest of the guys on this thread. Thanks for the compliment all the same.
As for Josh Allen . . . I see the growth he’s achieved since injuring his shoulder and missed 2 games this season:
* Great Idaho Potato Bowl: 11/19 (57.89%) 154 yds. 3 TD 0 INT
* Senior Bowl: 9/13 (69.23%) 158 yds. 2 TD 0 INTMost importantly, I saw at least a handful of passes in the Senior Bowl where he dropped the ball right into the bucket. His footwork – which has been much of the reason for his previous issues with accuracy – has been cleaned up. He’s gotten to the point with his footwork that he’s able to correct himself because he knows what the right footwork feels like now. Not only that, but I’ve heard through multiple reliable sources that his whiteboard work with X’s and O’s is outstanding. Some people are calling him the “Johnny Bravo” of the draft because he “fits the suit”. Yes, he’s big. Yes, he’s strong. Yes, he has a cannon. But there’s more to him than just the long ball. Granted, he LOVES the long ball. This kid’s WOW factor is off the charts. Most importantly, this kid is a moldable piece of clay that can transform into something special. If he does exactly that, then hopefully, it’ll be in Cleveland.

Hey that’s a tough program. Let’s not school-shame here.

Don’t lump me in with the rest of you, I know what the hell I’m talking about at all times. I’m pretty snappy about it too. Snarky. Snappy. Whatever, you know what I mean.
We also forgot to mention that Shooter is both modest and humble for someone so young. 😉

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Hey shooter, you nail another board to that tree in your backyard yet? I notified OSHA of your child labor.
