all joking aside, I do think Teddy Ballgame is the best QB in this draft.

Here's to Bortles proving me wrong :thumbsup:

We wont know for at least 3 years anyways, but here's to neither of us taking that bust named Manziel. :banana:

That's kinda how I felt after the Bortles pick. While I was meh on it at first, I was happy cause I knew it meant we weren't taking Manziel

I could have sworn the browns traded up one spot with us to take johnny at 8.....My heart was literally pounding when he was there for us at 9 I wouldn't have been surprised. So glad with Teddy Bridgegod and Barr

I hope you were trolling though, wouldn''t say the Jags had the best / it's wayyyyyy too early to say who had even really a good draft lol, even if all your next picks hit and Bortles bust it would be considered a bad draft. Also that 74% WR in the top 3 rounds bust stat is kinda scary.

We will see in 3 years when im old as fuck tits

Why do you think Mayock hates draft grades so much? It's because we wont have a single clue how these guys will pan out in the NFL. It doesn't matter what they did in college, the NFL isn't college anymore. It's the best of the best in the NFL.

On paper, we have one of the top drafts, but we won't know for at least 3 years regardless. If you take a QB in the 1st round, it will always fall back on how that QB develops. It wont be any different with you guys and Teddy. Nobody will care where he was drafted, the only thing that people will care about is whether he's a bust or not. Even if Barr is a hit, it will always fall back on the QB.

I hope you guys aren't expecting Barr to be a world beater right away. He's as raw as raw gets. He doesn't just need to be developed, he literally needs to learn how to play the game/position still. I personally think he could be the best player to come out of this draft when it's all said and done. Of course that will all go back on if he wants to be the best, if he puts in the work and how well he gets developed.

I think we faked the browns out into thinking we were gonna take gilbert.

i personally wanted manziel. Im happy with teddy, i think barr was a reach. I just think behind all that celebrity and shit manziel is gonna work his ass off and is smart. the wonderlic isnt the genius test, but he scored pretty high on it which helps to show he isnt just some backyard QB.


as far as people saying bortles best qb in draft- they are projecting him as best based on ceiling.

we have a history of tricking the browns into moving up a pick for no reason.

im so glad we didn't take manziel. I truly don't want that trainwreck media circus.
