Rosenhaus has fired Manziel. Reports earlier this week said Drew told him either to get his ass to rehab or he's going to stop representing him. So I guess JFF decided to choose drinking over NFL ... again.

Have a guy trying to Araysar out of $300 dollar bet, on draft night I bet him that Manziel was a bust. As if some how being cut 2 years after being drafted in the 1st round doesn't qualify as a bust, if Manziel doesn't have a team by week 1 I get my money. That money is as good as in my wallet, that or a crowbar is going through his windshield his choice.

Sounds like Philadelphia is in serious talks to move up to #2. Read a few different reports now.

Seems like it may be the best thing for Cleveland. Get as many picks as you can to fill out your team, because they have a ton of needs, and see how RG3 pans out for a couple years. I am sure they will still be terrible in a couple years and there could be better QB's by then.

Just not convinced they'll actually do well by the picks, but probably smartest move. Odd for Philly, giving Bradford $36 million over next 2 years, but maybe they like one of those guys. I'm all for them burning a bunch of picks on a potential bust.

Best thing the Browns can do is not draft a QB for the next ten years. Once they learn how to draft every other position in the first round, THEN they are allowed to go after a QB.

Worst thing that happens is Goff/Wentz (why would they move up to #2 other than to grab a QB) sits for a year or so before Bradford's knee disintegrates. It's a smart move by Cleveland and Philly if it happens. Like you said, Cleveland for more picks, and Philly because Bradford is not a long term solution.

Think they can test him at anytime since he is in the substance abuse program, this is the window where anyone can get randomly tested.

The day the Browns passed on Big Ben

And this is why the Browns should always accumulate picks. Their history has shown they fucking blow at drafting. Therefore to mitigate their abysmal 25% success rate they need as many picks as possible.

Watched some videos of Goff and this kid looks like the real deal. His accuracy and release are better than anyone I have seen including Luck. He routinely makes throws hitting guys in stride on the numbers.

This play pretty much sums it up and the Rams would be retarded taking Wentz I think. Throwing off your back foot beating bracketed coverage in perfect stride. Talk about NFL throw~Watch all that tape if you're bored vs Washington and you will see what I mean.

Apparently the Eagles are giving the Browns:

2016
1st Round (8)
3rd Round (77)
3rd Round (79)

2017
1st Round
3rd Round

You'd think the Eagles would've learned from their division rival in the Redskins that giving up a ton of picks for the 2nd best QB is retarded. The actual compensation is obviously lower, but the Eagles also have a starting QB on their roster already; the Redskins had Sexy Rexy.

Picks were a little off but very close:

This is straight from the Eagles official Facebook page and being reposted pretty much everywhere, although the only other NFL thing I follow on FB besides the Bucs page is the Sirius XM NFL Radio page.
