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'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction
