    Would take either Adams or Hooker tbh I think both are talents.

    I'd honestly be surprised if adoree WASN'T available at 18.

    Don't think we take him regardless

    Depends on who is there at #5. better to trade out of #5 to get the 2nd if our players at 5 are rated equally with the next several players. Via the trade chart, moving from #18 to 32 (which wouldn't happen) would only yield us a pick near the end of round 2. Moving from say #5 to about 12 would give us a mid-2nd round pick.

    So short of us REALLY wanting a player at #5, it's better to move down from there. Also, better chance to move out of that spot than 18. Most likely if we move back from 18, we would not be getting a 2nd round pick back at it would most likely be for someone in the early to mid 20's moving up for the last '1st round' caliber player at a particular position. To give you an idea, moving from #18 to #25 would only net us a mid 3rd.

    I could more easily see us move back to #12 where we likely still get a WR/CB/S/LB/Pass Rusher that we want. Dropping to 25+ won't get us as good a pick and we'll have fewer options to match the value of a player with our needs.

    I think the combine is gonna shake out the cb's the most though Bama Clemson will have an effect on possibly 3 of these cb's.

    Jackson is a bit more raw and not nearly as polished, but I think he's a better athlete than most or all of the other cb's.

    I think this will be an interesting year for cb's being chosen because I think teams will have them rated all over the place. Some might have Adoree as a top 10 CB while another team will have him as a 2nd rounder. Beauty is gonna be in the eye of the GM and the scheme you run!

    I do think Adoree has one of the highest ceilings of the cb's but that will either be confirmed or not when we see his athleticism comparatively. Like Ramsey, my expectations for him are HIGH!

    Cook, IMO is worth that pick to a team with the OL and a QB. But what would we do with Murray, run a 3 headed Monster at RB?

    People would LOSE THEIR MINDS if we took Cook that early. I agree that we over used Murray - especially when he was hurt and there were OBVIOUS spots he should have been rested...like 3rd and 1, 4th and 1, first and goal inside the 5, etc.

    I like Cook over Fournette!!!

    I'm not sure JRob would be willing to pull the trigger on that...investing a 4th, 2nd and the a top 5 pick on RB? The 2 good things about it though would be we know what we are getting. He IS a difference maker and Murray has a lot of mileage on him so Henry could use a running mate for the future.

    We better make some moves in FA if we do that and not get caught with our pants down like we did not addressing CB in FA or the draft last year (with premium picks).

    Hmmm...sign Trumaine Johnson, Eric Berry, Jamie Collins, Pierre Garcon and Ronald Leary. Draft Cook, Jackson, LB and a slot wr/kr and we are on our way!!!

    They like Fowler and Ngakoue. Might like Allen next to Marks! Strong chance Browns take Garrett at #1 so most likely they take Allen. Would they take Cook there? Or is it time to take a new QB?

    I honestly think the Browns are trading for Jimmy G this offseason and taking Garrett 1st overall. They can still grab a QB later in the draft to develop along with Cody Kessler.

    That's too smart a thing for the Browns to do, so won't happen
