Bull. You will be the Browns until your fired after 3 years. And why are you under the assumption I'm not winning games. I don't even have to draft a QB. This it's a Top 10 pick or nothing is foolish. I have the whole rest of the draft, free agency, and trades for a veteran QB available. That's foolish thinking. How many playoff teams didn't have a top 10 draft pick as a QB or traded or signed their guy?

If I have the first overall pick and Luck or Payton is sitting there and I can upgrade my QB, absolutely I take them. But I am not stupid enough not to listen to offers. But outside of those two guys over the last 15 years who else warrants a top 4 pick. I will tell you, right or wrong I don't take Eli in the Top 5. I liked Rivers better then and I think it has been the supporting cast that has helped Eli. I don't consider him elite. I liked Palmer, Ryan and Stafford for Top 10 guys. I missed on Bradford. Injuries have not helped. It's a crap shoot. I actually thought Flacco was taken too high. But that's worked for them. Young, Newton guys who come out early really have issues, making them much more likely to bust. No way I take a JR in the Top 10.

His combine numbers are embarrassingly bad.

But I also think he has a lot of Ryan leaf, Jamarcus Russell, JFF in him. He also showed up for the combine and pro day looking like he spent the previous 2 months eating pizza and playing video games all day instead of working out.

Mariota may be a bust, but he'll work his ass off to be the best he can be. He might not ever get it, but he's gonna try his damnedest to get it. Winston may never care enough to try to get it.

No way I place my job and my future in the hands of Winston.

Is there anyone placing odds on how long it takes for him to pull another major blunder?

Anyone here ever have an employee that seemed to be on a direct path for you losing your liability coverage?
