    Wow, he wasn’t shy with his comments. Great read
    http://www.cantonrep.com/sports/20180430/browns-draft-one-of-dorseys-right-hand-men-explains-flip-from-darnold

    Here’s a couple of the big ones:

    “Here’s the honest to God’s truth,” he said. “From the start of this college football season to the end of the season, I had Darnold No. 1 and Baker No. 2, (Josh) Rosen No. 3, (Lamar) Jackson No. 4 and (Josh) Allen after that.

    Then he goes on to talk about how Baker moved up in their rankings. But they had Allen ranked as their 5th best QB, maybe even lower than that.

    “Baker Mayfield lost two receivers and he was the same quarterback,” Highsmith said. “Josh Allen … big arm … he could throw the ball from here to the moon. When they have to make excuses … why are they not completing passes? That’s a problem.”

    No doubt Baker was the best qb in the draft. I just worry about his head. Hope he isn’t manziel 2

    Hue Jackson is a loser.

    Why would you worry about his head? Name something he’s done to make you worry about it.

    What would make you think he’s Manziel 2.0?

    Please, give some examples.

    For you shooter mcgee

    Also, he has been cock on the field. The last thing we need is to be down by a score and mayfield start running his mouth or grabbing his junk and get a 15 yard to put us out of field goal range.

    Hue Jackson is a loser.

    Yeah, as Dawson pointed out, watch the video. I hope he was put in confusion protocol after that tackle, ouch. (Not sure if that’s what Dawson meant, but it should have been).

    That said, the video doesn’t bother in the least. He was drunk in public, in college. Big deal. I’ve done much worse. And had I not been wearing flip flops at the time, I probably would have run as well. It’s one poor decision made in a split second while under the influence. Big deal.

    He was walking home drunk from a college party, and attempted, horribly, to run from police.

    Whoopity dooooo!

    That’s it.

    That’s his entire “off the field” list of causes for concern.

    1 thing. 1 mild, insignificant little thing. 1. It’s not even a list. It’s 1 goddamn thing. Talk about character assassination, Jesus Christ. This shit is ridiculous.

    Also, he has been cock on the field.

    When? When the Captains of the Kansas team all refused to shake his hand before the game and then taunted him from the sidelines and then on the field prompting him to grab his crotch and tell them to stick to basketball after his team beat their ass? Is that the time he was a cock?

    Seemed pretty warranted to me, he was the one who was treated disrespectfully. Are you gonna say that if the same thing happened next year, except against the Steelers, you’d be upset about it? Please, we’d build him a fuckin statue right then and there.

    Or maybe you’re referring to when he planted the flag in Ohio State. Aside from looking like an idiot for trying to plant a flag on a rubber field, explain to me really what was so wrong about it? He avenged a loss from the year before to the same team while knocking off a national power and solidifying his teams run to a shot at the National title and he was a little fucking excited about it.

    How awful.

    What else ya Got dude?

    Oh, that’s it? You mean there’s nothing else? Those 3 ridiculous fucking things warrant calling him Manziel 2.0?

    Getthefuckoutta here with that stupid bullshit. That argument is weak as fuck and you know it. They don’t even play football the same way Mayfield is twice the player Johnny Idiot was. Stop talking about this stupid shit it makes you look like a fucking retard.

    In college my roommate got arrested for being a drunken idiot. In the back of the cop car he managed to get his hands in front of him, roll down the window, open the car door from the outside, and jump out at a red light. He was on the lamb for a while and when they finally caught him it took 5 of them to subdue him.

    He’s a Navy SEAL now.

    @shooter on mobile… But what did manziel do in college trouble wise? Devils advocate

    @ice what you don’t know, that was part of his initiation. Hope bullet proof Tony does well today.

    Hue Jackson is a loser.

    Just so long as he wins games for the Browns who cares? my only worry is the easy defenses he faced in the big 8 the NFL his windows will be a lot tighter.

    Back on topic, ESPN is reporting that not only did the Jets have him ranked #1, but the Patriots were considering moving up to #2 to draft him.

    Apparently as many teams had him as the #1 QB as Darnold. If you guys love stats (and I know a few of you do) then Mayfield is far and away the best QB of the group. Here’s one I found very interesting: For throws that traveled over 20 yards through the air Mayfield’s completion percentage is 20% HIGHER than any of the other top 5 QB’s in that draft.

    @ice I started reading an interesting article about this pick…. The big reason they chose him was because of his attitude and his work ethic.

    Hue Jackson is a loser.

    Are you serious? College? How about the fact that his father had to bribe him with a brand new car that he’d stop drinking. That was in High school.

    College was one incident after another off the field. On-field he was lazy, uncoachable and flashing money signs everywhere.

    Are you asking me that question fucking seriously?
