Denali Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 If the Browns select a QB in the first round of this year's NFL draft, would that QB be better off choosing the CFL instead? Would it be better for his career? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 No. Take the money. Never know when you might get injured. The Browns have a lot of draft capital this year. If they use it properly, the new QB could grow with these young talents into a good team. And the Browns only need to be average to be a HUGE jump in quality. In other words, that QB will, almost by definition, improve the team. So, he'll be seen as an upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reo Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 NFL is much more money and I think the browns would continue to own his rights so no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBukafax Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 His first year on an NFL team will give him more money then a 10 year CFL career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prometheus Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 No. In fact, the Browns are in great shape with draft capital and cap space. This team will have an abundance of young talent with a good FA and draft, and any decent QB could have a bright future there. Of course, there is always the highly negative unknowns given the past history of that franchise. But there IS a light at the end of the tunnel for their fans. Only question is how bright that light is with this HC. pro Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A question for which there is only one answer is not a question. The Browns are hopeless as long as Hue Jackson is at the helm. Draft picks don't mean shit as long as he is there.

TerryBoats Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 He's going to be with a good OC and behind a really good offensive line. If he's just turned off by the stigma of being with the Browns, then he's an idiot. Any top QB is going to a crappy team, and there are worse situations to be in than the one in Cleveland.

japan Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 I’m thinking with all of this draft capital in a possibly competent GM’s hands, the Browns may turn this around. I assume Hue is gone after this year. I would say 2 years out they may be competitive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtenn Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 I remember when Rocket Ismail did the same to avoid playing for the 1-15 Cowboys. A few years later the Cowboys won the SuperBowl with Ismail playing in Canada. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is what I was able to find (it took a while of searching): https://www.boltsfromtheblue.com/2014/3/1/5443918/nfl-collective-bargaining-agreement-cba-101-draft-rookie-contracts It is also worth noting that if a player is drafted, but opts to play in another league, the drafting team still maintains rights to the player if they decide to play in the NFL. This lasts for three years, after which, the drafting team maintains RoFR only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle021 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 If I’m Rosen I’m stoked about going to Cleveland. They have an amazing OL, a great OC, two stud WRs and a damn good promising TE with star potential and the best LT in the league plus, they have a shit ton of draft capital He could have a top 5 OL, Barkley in the backfield, Gordon/Coleman/Njoku to throw to and a great receiving back in Johnson Rosen is going to be a very good QB. He’s head and shoulders the best in the draft. He’s just whining about playing for the Browns. He obviously hasnt paid attention to the fact they have a competent FO and a lot of talent and MONEY to make him richer than any team in the league when the time comes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somedude Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Do a Eli Manning. Refuse to play for the team that Drafts you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieTitanFan08 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Hue Jackson is probably going to have to win at least 6 games next season to save his job. with 6 of the first 65 picks in the draft and $110 million in cap space, and an all star personnel department now running the show, they are going to bring plenty of talented players into the building. if the Browns suck again next season, it won't be ownership/management that cops the heat it will be Hue Jackson and the coaching staff.
