Cleveland Browns Quarterback Position

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Browns fans talking themselves into A.J. McCarron will be a real treat.

Cmon guys. If there’s anyone experienced enough in mediocre QB play to diagnose it, it’s us.

You’ve got Rosen staring you in the face, and even if you weren’t on him one of the other guys is better.

Rosen, Darnold, Mayfield/Jackson > McCarron for $25m+

We would only have McCarron on mostly a one year guaranteed contract, so we can free up a ton of cap space if we cut him year two. Also McCarron knows how to run Hue's system, he knows how the offense works better than most QBs and is a high IQ QB. Now there are always some things left to be desired with other parts of his game, but if we sign him its as a bridge QB so we can allow the top QB prospect on the board in Dorsey's mind to develop. I mean heck, having time to develop a QB the right way isn't anything Cleveland has ever done right. If we draft Rosen number one, go like 6-10 type of thing and then in year two let Rosen take over with a better team and then we make the playoffs, isnt that exactly what you have been trying to preach with patient?
 
Unproven is what comes to mind whenever I think of A J McCarron, remember Mike Glennon and Brock Osweiller .

Mike Glennon played in 21 games for Tampa Bay, 13 of those in his rookie year. He's consistently regressed, so Chicago should have been aware of what they were getting into, IMO.

Brock is a fair comparison in how he got a good reputation without doing much of anything.
 
Glennon is evidence of a team willing to roll the dice and gamble for a QB. Brett Favre, Matt Hasselbeck, and Jimmy Garoppalo were all once young backups waiting for a team to trade for them and give them playing time.

BTW, McCarron isn't on their level at all.
 
Mary Kay Cabot continues to demonstrate what an incompetent beat writer that she is. Today in the PD she says the Browns will most likely draft a qb at overall numbrt and it will be either Rosen or Darnold. Based on what Mary Kay? Pro football focus had literally spent thousands of hours of film study on all the quarterbacks and have concluded that Mayfield is "far and away"..."head and shoulders" of the class as the best quarterback. This is the same Mary Kay that honked for Kizer all season long.

Couple that with the ringing enforcements on Mayfield from Dorsey and McCloughan and you pretty much can deduct the Browns will not pick anybody but Mayfield.

Rosen ahs been called an entitled prick by team mates and has missed half the games over the past 2 seasons due to injuries. Darnold fumbled 12 times last season (losing 9) and had only a 2-1 TD to interception ratio...totaling a monster 22 turnovers.

Mayfield had better be the pick or I'm done with Browns football. And I've been a fan for 60 years...attending the '64 blowout championship game.

Literally almost all of this is just flatly dishonest.

Maybe he’s been a fan for 60 years though. I also hope we only have to put up with this until April, would save me at least the few seconds I spent reading through this type of posting.

This is literally the definition of trolling. Anyone who thinks this guy is trying to bring real takes is dropping acid. Come on.

Ah yes, my favorite threat!

Suffered through almost two decades of garbage football that included a two year stretch of 1-31, countless embarrassments from coaches, front office, and the owner. But not drafting Baker Mayfield will be the thing that ends your 60+ years of Browns fandom!

Dishonest? Dead nuts the truth. if you have a differing opinion...then state it and I'll be happy to debate you.

Go.
 
Mike Chico Bohrman is sitting in for Bull and Fox. Nice to see another radio guy joiing Dustin Fox in publicly claiming that Mayfield is the guy.

Like I posted above, Mayfield is miles ahead of any other quarterback candidate and it's a shame that a beat writer like MKC should be permitted to spew her nonsense like she did in the PD yesterday.

Hey Mary Kay, get in the kitchen and make me a sammich...lol.

That's correct. Browns management had better get this no brainer correct. If they kowtow to idiots like MK Cabot and draft an injury prone slug from UCLA or a turnover machine from USC, then I have no interest in watching them ever again.
 
Sam Monson was on the Lima and Carman show a few days ago. Monson is one of the top dogs from Pro Football Focus. PFF spends thousands of hours studying college quarterbacks for the upcoming draft. Their publication has clearly endorced Mayfield.

Then Lima showed his own idiocy by claiming that Mayfield will have a ton of his passes batted down. Manson ever at the ready responded with the numbers.... Mayfield had 2 passes batted down last season and all the "tall" guys had double digit passes dropped. Pwned!
