    There’s obviously going to be outliers like Bortles once in a while in any sport but for the most part you know what you’re doing if you’re choosing the correct matchups each week.

    If I’m “cursing” players because I thought Josh Freeman was going to be great after his 2010 season like a million other people then I’ve cursed damn near the whole league each week.

    His movement in the pocket is actually very similar to Russell. The only obvious big difference is Tua is a lefty...but I’d say he’s actually a legit comparison.

    Nah I believe it in this case, but you have to admit it happens a lot with NFL scouts. Very transparent.

    Same way every mobile QB is Michael Vick or every lightskin shooter is Klay Thompson

    Seen a lot of CBs with dreads compared to Sherman as well. I feel like the NFL comparisons are particularly lazy but it does happen with a lot of sports.

    If you are running the Browns right now, what plan do you go with?

    Do you take QB at #1, and Barkley at #4, and maybe go Defense with all your 2nd and 3rd round picks?

    Or do you sign Cousins, Barkley at #1, and say......Roquan at #4 and BPA from there on?

    Or even, sign Cousins, go with Bradley Chubb at #1, Minkah Fitzpatrick at #4, and take a RB/WR in round 2?

    1) see if I can get a team within the top 5 to trade up for a QB.. hell see what offers trams throw out for any of the picks

    2) I'm targeting chubb, Barkley, and then Oline with whatever I got in the top 10


    Cousins going be 30 next year, so that's a no on that

    Its not like you have to be super young to be effective as a quarterback in the NFL. If they signed Cousins while stockpiling good draft picks that would be a huge win for them IMO

    I don't believe they will get him, but the Browns go after Cousins.

    Let's say the sign him... draft Chubb #1, Minkah #4 or possibly Barkley if he drops. Possible when 2 QBs hit 2nd and 3rd picks.

    BPA, they need help everywhere but do have some talent. The coaching needs to be better.

    I'd look to add on TE and WR in round 2. Round 3 look for backers and corners.

    Speaking of comparisons, Michel is already due to be the next Kamara.

    It’s possible...I really like the comparison of him to Tevin Coleman though

    Coleman is a beast in his own right though so that’s no slight on Michel

    Sony Michel has elite shake. I don’t see that out of Coleman. And Sony, while explosive, does not seem to have that top gear that Kamara has.

    That’s cool. It’s a popular comparison to make

    4 to 6 is probably his range.

    If Michel has a top Combine, does he go Round 1?
