Thank you, DS . . . . I knew I could count on you. 😛

Let me get this straight. The Jets gave up 2 second round picks this year and a second next year to move up from 5th to 3rd; and some people are actually gullible enough to believe that they’re going after a running back? Child, please. Nobody gives up that much draft capital unless they’re going after a quarterback – period. The only question is:…[Read more]

At this point, it most likely is a one-time thing. However, it still needed to be investigated and addressed. And BTW . . . you’re not the only one who looks back at the stuff they’d done between the ages of 18-24 and wonder “How did I manage to get here?” The thing is that neither of us is being asked to become the face of an NFL franchise either.

While the list isn’t as lengthy as Johnny Manziel, there’s the beginning of what may be determined as a particular pattern of behavior if it goes unchecked. The flagpole thing isn’t even an issue as far as I’m concerned. However, the drunken disorderly incident is a concern. Hopefully for Baker, this is a one-time boneheaded moment in a young…[Read more]

While it wouldn’t surprise me if the Browns were to select Barkley @ #1; if they were to do so, it would be a damning indictment on the 2018 QB class because the NFL is such a QB driven league. Wunkle’s 2018 mock version 2.0 will be on the website fairly soon, and you’ll see some of my thoughts on how free agency will affect who go where. Here’s a…[Read more]

Thanks to Mike and DPD for the feedback. Sam Darnold, though he seems to be the consensus number 1 QB in the draft by all the “experts”, just scares the living crap out of me. Yes, he’s a gifted athlete and by all accounts a tremendous kid; but there are times when I see him play that there’s something wanting in his game. Perhaps an inability to…[Read more]

If in fact the Browns are only considering the QB position – which is Ice’s best case scenario – with the first overall pick, he has only a 1 in 4 chance of being correct. That’s a 25% possibility. If you add the possibility of the Browns taking a position other than QB, the percentage goes down to anywhere from 20% to 16.67%. If you add the…[Read more]

That said, Ice . . . Do you think Quenton Nelson has what it takes to play left tackle?

Complete this sentence. Josh Allen is the next . . .

A – Ben Roethlisberger
B – Carson Wentz
C – Joe Flacco
D – Jeff George
E – Kyle Boller
F – David Carr
G – Ryan Leaf
H – David Klingler
I – Brandon Weeden
J- Someone Else (please specify)

Remember . . . this is silly season, and the silliness is only beginning. Just wait until you see the crazy trades mock. I just hope you don’t blow a gasket when you do.

Signing AJ McCarron would certainly be a more salary cap friendly move than going balls to the wall for Kirk Cousins. Just because the Browns have over 100 million in cap space, it doesn’t mean that spending all or even most of it would be the wise move. And if the Browns are indeed able to sign McCarron, they’ll still need to draft a QB in the…[Read more]

If the Browns were able to acquire Nick Foles, they’d still need to draft a QB with the first overall pick. You also have to consider what would be the price in terms of draft picks or players. There are certainly a lot worse options out there, but I don’t know. Depending on what picks are involved, I’d probably be okay with it. In all honesty, I…[Read more]

BREAKING NEWS . . . We’ve already seen the Josh McCown act in Cleveland. It didn’t work with the cast of characters surrounding him. What makes you think it would work with this bunch, especially if we also need to replace Joe Thomas?

I stand corrected. Allen was 2 of 5, not 3 of 8.

Look at the Senior Bowl game film. Admittedly, he had a slow start where he was something like 3 of his first 8 throws; but turned it on later in the game to include 2 TD passes – one of which was perfectly thrown with a LB covering the TE like stink on crap. When this kid is on, he’s incredible. Is he streaky? Perhaps, but working out the kinks…[Read more]
