Browns considering Mitch Trubisky with #1 pick

Not to slam Trubisky, but is there really a good argument for him going #1 overall?

Watched him at UNC and thought he has the potential to be a franchise QB. Not saying he is a lock to be but I believe he will be in the right situation. Not sure the Browns are that situation lol. He is from around Cleveland as well. Would suck for Cleveland if he goes to another team and is very successful and they miss out on not only a franchise QB AGAIN but a guy from their area. The problem with UNC was not their offense it was their defense. Injuries did hurt the offense as well, however, like when Mack Hollins went down. Hollins was a legit deep threat and tall at that.

Cleveland had #1 and #12, in-between 3 QBs could get drafted. They should take the best player on their board, then have deals in place to move up form 12 to land their favorite QB. Panthers at #8, we've done business last year.....

 

Fyi panthers are going crazy about 4 out of 98, Cleveland has 4 out of 65 in this deep draft.

If he's a franchise QB, or even just a good QB, it's not a reach for a team desperate for someone decent under center like the Browns are. They've got to be praying they can pick a good one, then have a coach that can do something with him.

Even so, they are a couple of years away from relevance. But stars on offense win games, particularly QBs, and a passable defense can be put together on the fly and filled in later. Cam first, the next year Luke, for example.

Trubisky over someone like Myles Garrett though?

You'd have to have a pretty impressive argument to talk me into that.

As a UNC alum, I honestly thought Trubisky was unimpressive.  He made a lot of boneheaded plays and to me, Williams had more command over the offense in his time as a starter than Trubisky did in his.

Shocking that a four year starter had more command over the offense than a first year starter, right?

Trubisky's accuracy is phenomenal.

I hope the Browns pass on him simply because I'm curious to see how he'll do in the NFL and Cleveland is an NFL graveyard and a dumpster fire of an organization.

      Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.

      I wake up this morning full of rage towards Ronald McDonald Rivera / Gettleman / Hurney

      I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us.

      From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
