As a fully fledged and probably a minority fan of Russ on this forum, please enlight us why this was a good move.

The only way I see this as a win is if they somehow get the bpa at 3 plus a future franchise QB. Or somehow we trade up without giving up the farm for cam ward.

I like Shadeur but he’s projected to slide into the teens, if we pass on him. How gangsta would it be to somehow get Hunter and Shadeur?

I'm torn on Sanders. I don't want him at 3. If he slides, I think a package to move up and get him makes sense with Russ as a mentor for a year. Travis Hunter makes too much sense for this team with Russ at the helm.

I agree. The more I think about it the more I agree. 6’0 Russ had problems with his height but over came that with his scrambling at a young age. 6’1 Sanders was accurate against college athletes (NFL athletes are taller, quicker and stronger) and he’s not the athlete you would expect at 6’1. So there’s more risks involved with sanders vs Hunter. I believe Hunter has HOF potential. And if we are in win now mode to save the coaches job, and Hunter is there to fill a need in three areas you grab him quick.

1. Need at CB long term especially during special packages.
2. Need at WR due to his explosive threat every time he touches the ball, similar to nabers
3. Need a high confident player who can energize the team on and off the field.

Then you trade back into the 1st round if needed to get your QB of the future. Or trade down, gather more picks for a trade up strategy next year for Archie manning or the qb of the future. Use this draft to finish building out the team so when next year comes we are only a QB away from being a solid playoff team again.

I see us as being bad to mediocre next year no matter what - my hope is that the QB helps the recievers develop. Give me someone who isn't afraid to throw the ball downfield so Nabers, Robinson, Hyatt etc. really come into their own. INTs be damned, get the ball out there! That is Winston. Wilson has become a little gun shy in my opinion.

Either way I hope this means we have the freedom to draft a generational talent like Travis Hunter now. I do like Cam Ward, but Hunter is the best player in the draft and there are good QBs coming next year.

What about trading for Dart when you could’ve kept your picks and future pick, and selected milroe, Tyler, and Shadeur who’s available in the 4th round and talks about going undrafted?

Has Joe done enough to save his azz?

Dedicating three different resources to pick up three QBs this year is a bit puzzling but let’s see how it pans out.

Could be worse. Have you looked at the browns QB room 🤣
5 QBs 2 drafted all backups

I feel bad for Shedeur cause he shouldn't have dropped that far and he ended up in the worst possible situation. I don't see how this will end well for him. Best case he duplicates Baker Mayfield and gets a second chance and excels with another team after that rookie deal is done.
