No Surprise, Browns Take Garrett With Top Pick

May 05 10:41 2017

The Bears traded up to two to take Mitch Trubisky and obviously the Browns didn’t care for Deshaun Watson because they handed him to the Texans, but the point is that’s two years in a row where the Browns have punted on the a top quarterback very directly after handing Philly Carson Wentz in 2016.

Brown said that they will continue looking for a quarterback whether in a trade, free agent, or in next year’s draft.

A savvy National Football League team would probably either show patience and see which QB is available at No. 12 – or wait til next year when USC’s Sam Darnold and UCLA’s Josh Rosen figure to be available.

The 49ers made it two pass rushers in three picks, by taking defensive end Solomon Thomas from just down the road at Stanford.

It was going to be a sane first round until Trubisky went 2. He met with them at the combine and had another meeting with them around his pro day last month. In terms of playing the game of poker, it feels like a pretty good sitting.

I am not crapping on them for trading up, I am however crapping on them for who they picked. All three threw balls that didn’t bounce into the dirt. They took Arik Armstead in 2015 and DeForest Buckner a year ago.

Last season, Shaheen set a Division II record with 16 touchdown catches. Additonal info: Njoku is the older brother of Evidence, who was a senior wide receiver on Wayne Hills’ North 1, Group 4 sectional title team in 2016. Jacksonville Jaguars: Leonard Fournette, Running Back (LSU) 5. “But the 49ers’ first-year general manager John Lynch and his personnel staff flipped that notion on its head with an outstanding opening salvo to his tenure in San Francisco”. “I’ll do whatever I can to help this team win games”.

The Bears dumped Cutler after eight seasons and signed Glennon, giving them some leeway to wait on a QB.

This comes as a surprise, as most of the people are expecting the Browns to pick a new quarterback.

Garrett has been criticized for not going all out on every play, but before the draft, Browns vice president of player personnel Andrew Berry attributed that to the large number of plays in which college players are on the field. “I’m going to show these guys what I can do”.

Chicago came into the second round with numerous perceived needs at safety and cornerback and it remains an area to look at when the draft wraps up Saturday. I’m happy to be a member of the Cleveland Browns organization.

The opening round of the NFL Draft took place on Thursday night in Philadelphia, which many unexpected moves taken by a variety of teams. But not only is he still on the roster, Houston’s former starter, who is 13-8 as a career starter, could move to the top of the depth chart because of his experience.

Linebacker Leonard Floyd, drafted ninth overall a year ago, showed some promise with seven sacks as a rookie.

Bears tight end Zach Miller went on injured reserve late last season with a foot injury.

“It was insane”, Trubisky said. Over a span of a few weeks two years ago, he tweeted messages supporting Aaron Rodgers and the rival Green Bay Packers.

“Big things are coming”, Garrett said. “I don’t know when that tweet is from”.
