That’s a great point. I guess it all depends on who Ballard likes and how badly a team would want that qb.

I still say if Chubb is still there, you have to take him.

Jests, Denver and maybe Miami may be in the market for a QB and our pick.

In the end, I would probably pick chubb though.
I wouldn't feel too bad, they guy is a dynamic weapon. And not just a RB but a WR too and maybe best pass blocking back in the draft. Venturi had a nice quote, he was told early on by another coach that you draft a guy who gets the ball in the end zone or goes after the QB with a top ten pick.

Matt Miller is a guy I trust (I know GBB88 can back me up on this):

@nfldraftscout
Bradley Chubb is special.

That is all.

On this site, http://walterfootball.com/draft2018charlie.php the mock draft has the Browns taking Barkley, G-men take Rosen, Colts take Chubb and then the Browns take Darnold. If the first two picks actually went this way, there are a few teams that would give up a lot to move ahead of the Browns and take Darnold.

The rankings of the QB talent among the top 5, Rosen, Arnold, Allen, Mayfield, Rudolph are all over the place.

I have seen at least 2 sites that have Mason Rudolph as their top QB? Then you throw in the wildcard of Lamar Jackson, who IMO is not a 1st rd QB, and I can see teams falling in love with smoe of these guys and moving up to get them.

He followed that with:

Since a lot of you are asking: I don't think Chubb is on Myles Garrett's level. Bet I end up grading him similar to Joey Bosa. His agility at 6'4 1/2" and 275 lbs is pretty damn rare.

I'd be okay with a Joey Bosa type at 3. The production scares me a bit with him, though, especially how hot and cold he can be.

Absolutely I take a guy at Joey Bosa’s level.

I voted trade back.

Stockpile more 1st and 2nd round picks over the next 2 drafts (prefer them in this year's draft) and then pick the best available OT with whatever pick we end up sticking with.

Pick OLB[RUSH] in the 2nd round along with other picks if we have them from trade (ILB, OG are top of my list after OLB).

We have a lot of holes to fill. Getting one stud is nice if he works out. Getting a shot at 3 or 4 studs is even better even if their ceiling is lower than the kid picked at #3.

Walk Worthy,
