Wait, Griffin was drafted?You might have missed that Griffin was drafted by Seahawks, they barely mentioned this during 3 day draft coverage.

Exactly. It's pretty incredible what he does all his life but what was incredible and touching story, they turned into cheesy mess.I was watching/listening to the Rich Eisen Show last night and they were going on and on about how Griffin will be on the show tomorrow (today) and that it's the only one he's doing so they feel empowered and priveleged and they owe him the world etc.
The kid has gone through some tough shit that I gladly have no idea about and have never experienced but there are no doubt a number of other players in that draft that have gone through some crazy stuff and they barely got a mention. I probably sound like I'm coming off as a huge dick but it gets a bit nauseating after a bit.
Hope to see him rip it up in the league though, just not against us.
Apparently we got one of the best corners in the draft but we shall see. We also got three Wide Receivers in the draft. We really need help on defense that's for sure. I pray Rodgers can stay healthy.It will be interesting to see which of the Raven’s draft choices step up to be contributors. What is your assessment of the Packer’s draft?
You got arguably 2 of the best 3 corners. I'm really jealous honestly.Apparently we got one of the best corners in the draft but we shall see. We also got three Wide Receivers in the draft. We really need help on defense that's for sure. I pray Rodgers can stay healthy.
We will see though. I have to see it to believe it.You got arguably 2 of the best 3 corners. I'm really jealous honestly.

well i had the 2 of them as the 2nd and 3rd best corners on my big board right next to each other - i wonder if you might end up using jackson at safety though

The one thing that will cheer you up when your down, the disappointment of a Browns fan when they make their selection in the draft.

Hey Militant how are ya bud?
i dont understand why browns fans are acting like this? baker mayfield is legitimately an NFL talent and could very well be the best of the class. its honestly been a complete toss up from day one, and it will stay that way til we see them in the NFL. baker is short, darnold is a turnover machine, rosen is a dickhead, lamar has accuracy issues, but any of them could very well pan out to be the best in the class, because baker is also incredibly accurate, cerebral, fiery, poised, and athletic, darnold is big bodied and athletic and probably has the most natural arm and multiple releases, rosens throwing talent and mental capacity for football is reminiscent of carson palmer in his prime and has a clutch factor, and lamar jackson looks like a carbon copy of michael vick.The one thing that will cheer you up when your down, the disappointment of a Browns fan when they make their selection in the draft.

for browns fans to be upset about the pick is like getting upset for choosing aj green over julio jones.
Honestly I thought the browns taking darnold at 1 may have been regrettable for them, and I thought Baker was simply a better qb prospect. 99% of everyone shitting on the Browns picking baker are doing so because they take the Johnny manziel bait, and it’s pathetic that anyone is uninformed enough to do that, and even more pathetic that people THAT uninformed are decked out in their teams gear, watching the draft, and shitraging over the pick. Like know something before you literally growl jibberish at your wife over a draft pick.more than in any other year there were legitimate arguments that you could make for 5 different qbs to go number 1 (or at least there should have been) because none of the 5 are alike at all:
Josh Rosen with the mental processing, timing and touch of a pro qb who beat defences in a variety of different ways
Baker Mayfield with the consistent accuracy, the off-schedule ability, competitive fire
Darnold who's ability to make stunning throws off-schedule is unreal, is young and fairly complete and already unshakeable
Jackson who's an electric athlete with experience in a pro-ready offence reading multiple levels, a live arm and a penchant for big plays down field
Josh Allen who's arm strength is obscene - he can make throws that only a couple (if any) nfl qbs can make - he might walk into the league with the strongest arm immediately
obviously each of them have negatives but stylistically they all have something different that defines them and their play style - which is why i think you could legitimately suggest that the teams who took the top 5 qbs in the draft got their favourite guy...

I was not concerned with facing a darnold led browns twice a year. I am absolutely concerned about facing a mayfield led browns twice a year. That pick was a shock that left me a little worried. I simply think baker was the best qb prospect in this draft, or at least a 1B kinda guy with Rosen at 1A
I had rosen and mayfield 1A and 1B, Jackson 3, darnold 4, then I had guys like falk over Allen.I had Rosen 1, Mayfield 2 (but only one spot ahead on the big board) of Darnold 3, Jackson 4 and Allen 5
