    Yes, but Trent was the third overall pick. Or something like that. The pick the Browns get back will be a lot lower.

    It's still super early, but yeah it looks like ole DW was actually right on this one. Really though, it's probably a waste of a pick to trade a 1st for any RB in the NFL not named Adrian Peterson.

    Ya know, I'm just sitting here thinking about how sad it is that since Keith Bulluck in 2000 Chris Johnson is the only 1st round pick of ours who actually lived up to his draft spot (and even that was short-lived). You could certainly make the case that Kendall is heading that direction. Still sad either way.

    and this is a big reason why we were so terrible for the longest time.

    you cannot have two top 10 picks bust and expect to be a good team. not to mention drafting all those WRs and DEs in the same draft.

    Don't you remember the old Meatloaf song: "One out of Fourteen Ain't Bad"?

    Oh wait, that song doesn't exist. because it IS bad.

    Even when we traded down, out of the first: the players we take in its stead are HORRIBLE.

    Browns still blew it overall. Could have taken any QB other than Weeden (Tannehill, Wilson, Foles) and then Doug Martin instead of the Richardon-Weeden combo.

    Let's not give the franchise too much credit here.

    They made a better trade than we ever have. We would have traded TR for a 4th round pick because we are that complacent with average.
