Moving Down to 12


DaveThePanther2008

Recommended Posts

I am not one to normally look to trade out of a position but the thought came about when I notice a fellow huddler mentioned it is possible all the really big names at big positions we need are gone.  That got me thinking about #12 since Cleveland has 2 picks in round 1.   For that scenario to occur Cleveland would have to pick someone else other than a QB at #1.

You know Cleveland would like a QB and if one is available at 8 they might be willing to trade up to get him.

If we were to trade down what would we get in addition to the 12th pick?  I don't have the chart that tells a fair exchange.

At 12 who would be worthy of that pick?

Or how about Joe Thomas and the 12th pick?  Would any of you do this?

No fugging way they trade Thomas.  They got crucified for dismantling that OL (minus Thomas) and got the QBs murdered this year.  Especially with them getting a new QB, the last thing they want is the kid to get David Carr'd 

 

That being said. Say Watson is sitting there.  I'd be baiting the crap out of Arizona.  You know they are drooling over him (has put on shows there the last 2 years in the playoffs) And they need a QB bad!

If we did move back, what kind of pick do you think we'd get in exchange for doing so? A 2nd or a 3rd? Should we ask for a pick in next years draft? Cleveland is in a position to make such a deal because they will have a surplus of picks for the next couple of years.

As for Thomas, I like that original proposal, but I doubt the Browns would risk doing that. As they guy brought out above, the last thing you want is for your rookie QB to get destroyed behind a crappy offensive line.

They'd have to include Veldheer or Humphries for me.  Quite frankly I can't see why they would want to keep Veldheer.  They are cap strapped and his number shoots up to $10 million this year. Humphries simply can't play RT but they did invest a 1st in him.

Not sure if they'd give up one of those 2 players.  But we've seen in recent years.  If a teams Needs a QB and a guy they fall in love with is there, they trade the bank.  Could get a 1st rounder or this and next years 2nds

    • I don't think Dave touches the defense. That might be a mark against him but definitely a huge red flag for evero. He refuses to run anything other than soft zone and when you don't get pressure that's an awful scheme
    • You don't have to convince me. I think not picking up the option should absolutely be firmly on the table but I just do not see Tepper and Morgan doing that for previously stated reasons. Therefore I'm not going to bother entertaining the notion. Just hoping we actually get real viable competition. If that doesn't happen at the minimum then my perception of that is complete and utter professional malpractice.
    • It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
