Best of luck.

The devastating leg injury crippled his career.

I don't see why you hate day 2 so much. Other than the QB pick, I think they had a pretty good day 2.

Love the Higgins and Scooby pick day 3!

Neither edge rusher fits the system, the tackle they took was a massive reach and then, yeah... the Kess pick.

I did mean regular season games.

Nah. 3's a push in the regular season. That's where I have them anyways. I said "could be a 2, maybe a 1 loss team". Could be a 4 just as well.

You want 4 L's, you're on.

Wouldn't say the tackle was a reach. he had a 3rd-4th round grade.

What type of defense are the Browns playing now?

I will say that the edge rushers were both top 5 edge rushers in this draft. can't have enough pass rushers ever IMO.

Mayock had him much later, he's supposed to be a total project...

Nassib was a top five pass rusher?? That would be complete news to me... both are 4-3 guys the Browns run a 3-4...

day 2 sucked dawg.

Is Miami expected to be legit this year? Or is it just Kaaya??

I haven't heard much good about Kaaya outside of the major pundits. Instead, I'm hearing he's more mid round material.

The offense should be pretty darn good, mostly because of Kaaya but they have some young studs that can really make plays. I expect their defense to continue to struggle which will play into some pretty high scoring games. However, their schedule is pretty darn easy and not too many teams on that schedule will be able to score with them. Richt picked a good year to start a new tenure. Offense will cover up for a crappy defense, against what is a weak schedule.

True Nassib was a top 10 pass rusher.

Ogbah is super athletic and could def play rush LB. Many people thought he would go in the first round, so top of the second I would be fine with.

Kiper had the tackle as a 3rd or 4th rounder. But maybe I'm being partial because I like his story.

They forgot Maine. The Colts signed Trevor Bates a LB.

2017 NFL mock draft: Deshaun Watson and a bunch of running backs - SBNation.com

This one has Watson 1st overall to the Browns and Kaaya going 2nd overall.

Found this interesting. Found a 'way too early' mock draft done in 2015 on Fansided for this year. Below are the projections and actual picks.

1 - Christian Hackenberg - 2nd Round - 51 overall
2 - Joey Bosa - 1st Round - 3rd overall
3 - Robert Nkemdiche - 1st Round - 30th overall
4 - Vernon Hargreaves - 1st Round - 11th overall
5 - Connor Cook - 4th Round - 100th overall
6 - Ronnie Stanley - 1st Round - 6th overall
7 - Jalen Ramsey - 1st Round - 5th overall
8 - Emmanuel Ogbah - 2nd Round - 32nd overall
9 - A’Shawn Robinson - 2nd Round - 46th overall
10 - Rashard Higgins - 5th Round - 172nd overall
11 - Kendall Fuller - 3rd Round - 84th overall
12 - Jared Goff - 1st Round - 1st overall
13 - Cameron Sutton - DID NOT ENTER
14 - Marquez North - DID NOT GET DRAFTED
15 - Miles Jack - 2nd Round - 36th overall

If Kayaa is projected as a first rounder, Kizer definitely has a chance to play himself into the first round, no?

Kizer is prototype NFL QB.

Big Arm, athletic....just needs to fine tune some things and it wouldn't shock me to see him be a day one draft pick with another solid year or two.

It's super funny seeing all these draft grades for the Browns... I've seen them rated as the biggest winners of the draft, Kiper and others had them as the biggest losers... it's really all over the map.

Same for the Cowboys. Similarly to recruiting, its in the eye of the beholder, at least for most of this. Some love the Jaylon pick, that is, those that are optimistic of his return. Others note that they needed a lot of help in other areas and with Romo's career getting pretty long in the tooth, that pick would've been better spent somewhere else.

If he is our QB the next two seasons, then I fully expect him to have a first round grade. He has all of the tools that a day 1 Paxton Lynch has... The only difference is that Kizer can actually play!

What about just next season?

If he's the starter next year and enters the draft he's no worse than the 4th QB picked with only Watson, Kaaya and Luke Falk possibly ahead of him.

If he doesn't leave, Malik grad transfers to Clemson.

My heart would be broken. My dad's cousin was a 3-year starter for Clemson, but for whatever reason I can't make myself like them.

I don't get the love for Mason Rudolph and Chad Kelly that I have been seeing in the 2017 mocks.
