Super jealous of that trip!

Right now I'm looking at Pats@Bills Oct 30, Pats@49ers Nov 20 & Texans@Raiders Nov 21.

Hopefully those dates will line up with a Sabres or Sharks home game.

JFC. That seems like an exorbitant amount to move up especially considering they don't have a 2nd this year. Why sign Bradford at all?

And as for the logical next speculation, can they restructure and trade Bradford to Denver? Because if Denver just signs friggin Hoyer and Sanchize then they're hooped.

So they're paying Bradford starter money, Daniel elite backup money, and have now sacrificed big assets to probably draft a QB as well. Perfect summation of the current desperation for QBs in this league. Of course they'll probably go full ###### and draft Elliot instead.

The only silver-lining in all of this is that God hates Cleveland, so it would be only fitting for whomever the Eagles draft to become a HoF QB. That said, God has never really smiled on Eagles fans either.

It doesn't make any damn sense. Even if they trade Bradford, they still eat $11M in dead money.

Judging by Twitter, whichever QB gets drafted by the Eagles is getting booed off the stage at the draft.

Le sigh. Great they either get a daywalker ginger division II project or a tiny handed air raid system QB. Suuuuper.

Still better than Denver's QB situation though.

oh no. I couldnt believe that one QB could warrant a trade up in this draft, but 2 QBs? Eagles are going to regret this one for a wbhile I think

So does Cleveland take Lynch at 8?3 QBs in the top ten would leave some VERY talented players dropping out of the top 10

I'd argue that the Browns won that deal with the Colts where they got Indy's first round pick for Trent Richardson. Problem was that they used the pick on Johnny Manziel.

At least the Rams had that haul of picks from the RG3 deal in place before they parted with their picks.

The Browns can still draft one of the second-tier quarterbacks in the draft, such as Memphis' Paxton Lynch or Michigan State's Connor Cook.

One top NFL talent evaluator told cleveland.com that Lynch is better than Cal's Jared Goff.

The Browns have made it clear all along that they wanted to stockpile picks, and now they have a league-high 12 picks this year instead of 10. They also have six picks in the first 100.

They've also said they'll draft a quarterback at some point in this draft, and now they'll turn their attention to the second-tier signal-callers such Lynch, Cook and Penn State's Christian Hackenberg.

Was trading down from No. 2 the right move for the Browns?

Yes. Collect as many picks as possible. 44% (143 votes)
Yes. They won this trade easily. 33.54% (109 votes)
No. They needed to take a quarterback. 16.92% (55 votes)
No. They could have gotten a good player at No. 2. 5.54% (18 votes)
