I didn't want Latham either and felt sick when we selected him. Anyways, if there's a quote or something that I missed that said we won't be selected iOL with draft capital outside of day three then I retract what I've said. I just didn't like the dismissive tone with Zabel at 35, I think he brings tremendous versatility at both guard spots and at C; as much as we need to direly upgrade our weapons it's not like our OL is still anything to write home about. Zeitler is a stopgap, Cushenberry might be a crook and there's zero guarantee that Skoronski is worth what he's going to command on the open market after his rookie deal is up. I've heard that the Titans really like Zabel. Also like someone else just mentioned this DL class is deep and there's a good chance that someone impressive falls to our 2nd that we snap up. It's hard enough to guess what's going to happen with the picks right at the very top of the draft let alone trying to assume we know what's going to happen on day two and beyond.

Hardly groundbreaking. Consensus was that any of MHJ, Nabers or Alt would be homerun selections for the franchise. I was also Nabers over MHJ and I wanted Alt badly as well. Were you Odunze over Alt as well?

We all liked Nabers but I remember you were pushing for Odunze (at #7) as well because whenever I saw you propping him up it sent shockwaves through my system and a virus deep inside urged me to start shitposting anti RO sentiment. Anyways, I'm all for WR if a high level WR is on the board, I'm just not for reaching to fill a positional niche. Zabel would be a great pick at #35 as -- would Higgins or Golden, he probably won't even make it to our second pick so this is moot.

If we're giving Ran 2024 to write off, then there just is not enough data here on those in place to be drawing any sort of meaningful conclusion heading into this upcoming draft and the beyond. I know you've specifically been pining for a WR high in the draft for many years now. Notably Odunze at #7.

Is this the same regime that drafted a RT with a top 7 pick in the draft? It's a strawman, but it's far too early to be making assertive declarations like this about a brand new staff and a first time GM.

If we are going WR at 35, Higgins and Golden are the two I'm crossing my fingers for.

I really like Zabel and his positional versatility is a big plus. If they have him as the best guy left on their board at 35 I'm not mad at all if they select him. You guys are thinking way, way too short term and drafting for position / cute replacements (along with bad scouting) is how we ended up with Wilson, Farley and Burks. This is a multiyear rebuild.

They told him there was a deal for #1 in place and it was the extra push Garrett needed to sign the contract hmmm.

I didn't realize how desperate Browns media (podcasters / gen pop) were for Cam Ward until I started consuming off-season draft/FA content. We're in an advantageous position regardless. Either braintrust value Ward as a fitting #1 overall caliber QB prospect set to lead the next era of Titan football; we stick and pick. or We get a treasure trove of assets from one of those teams sitting at #2 or #3 and use that to build a winner over the next few years.

Borgo might be cooking this offseason...

Skimming through the thread he was a massive part of negotiations Red laser at his temple on draft night

Strike 1

yalls hero Brinker fought for this? yikes

is it crazy ive never heard of him

If you're pining Ward up against 2024 QBs you start with Penix and Nix. He's not in the same strata as those guys that went top three.
