NFL adds “inner circle” experience for each team at NFL Draft

According to Michael Lombardi, who spent 2013-2014 as Browns General Manager, the Browns are considering trading the fourth overall pick and aren’t looking to drop a long way down the draft board. But knowing his thoughts would seem valuable, and it would also seem valuable for him to know what direction the GM is going and start perhaps revising his playbooks to emphasize the talents of whichever quarterback they’re going to get.

It’s Baker Mayfield to the Browns. What if Cleveland takes Mayfield or Allen, the Giants take the other one, the Jets select Darnold and Denver (at 5) goes for Rosen? Nobody really knows just yet. Therefore, why not Mayfield?

There’s no question as to what the New York Jets, picking third, need-a quarterback. The amount of talent Cleveland has brought in this offseason is commendable.

But, John Dorsey has kept leaks out of the building, and all these Allen rumors could be completely false. Unfortunately, his boisterous personality wound up drawing comparisons to infamous National Football League busts like Ryan Leaf and Johnny Manziel.

This isn’t the first time that a college player was vexed with off-color tweets made when he was a teen. The Bills moved down from 10th to 27th in the first round to let the Chiefs move up to get their quarterback. But that’s where the similarities end. Here are my best guesses as to where Mayfield will go. Plus, Mayfield actually puts in the work… Could they make history by each taking a signal caller with the night’s top three selections? Oh, fine, that’s one more similarity between Mayfield and Manziel.

The Jets had traded up from sixth overall with Indianapolis with the expressed mission of finding that quarterback.

Allen is likely to be a first-round pick, but he spent Thursday apologizing after tweets he wrote in high school with racially offensive language appeared online Wednesday. Chubb was considered by most a more can’t miss guy, and by everybody as the best edge rusher in this year’s draft – a position that is always at high demand.

There’s too much smoke here for there not to be fire.
