IN PLAY. The Cleveland Browns probably know who they're taking No. 1 overall in the 2018 NFL Draft. Maybe. John Dorsey might know anyway, but everyone else is in the dark, waiting for the faint murmur of their decision to leak out of Cleveland. And there's a growing sense now that the Browns might very well be thinking about taking Baker Mayfield with the first overall pick. Dustin Fox, of 92.3 the Fan and The Athletic Cleveland, joined the Pick Six Podcast Tuesday -- listen to the full interview below or subscribe via iTunes right here for 30 minutes of daily NFL talk -- to talk about what the Browns are going to do when they're on the clock come Thursday night. And Fox believes there is a legitimate chance that we could see the Browns go in the direction of Mayfield. Discussing why he mocked Mayfield to the Browns in a recent The Athletic mock draft, Fox said he thinks Cleveland has "some interest in him" before adding that he heard this past weekend there's some "serious buzz" on Mayfield. "Part of it is, I like Baker a lot. And part of it is, I think the Browns have some interest in him. I love Baker Mayfield, he's my favorite quarterback in this draft," Fox explained. "If the Browns draft him, [and] there's a chance they could. I'd heard over the weekend there's some serious buzz with Baker to the Browns. I heard last Thursday, it was down to Josh Allen and Baker Mayfield to the Browns, which is sort of surprising." And Adam Schefter of ESPN reported on Tuesday morning that Mayfield is "definitely" in the mix for the No. 1 overall pick with Cleveland. www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2018-nfl-draft-rumors-serious-buzz-on-baker-mayfield-no-1-to-browns-definitely-in-play/

Good. Let the Gints take Darnold and the best QB in the draft falls into our lap.

I don’t buy for a second that the Browns take Mayfield.
I’m having a hard time believing that the Jets would even take him at #3.
During the modern Super Bowl era, there’s never been a sub-6’1 QB drafted in the Top 5, much less #1 overall. Closest we’ve came was with Vick and that’s because he came equipped with 4.3 speed and a goddamn howitzer attached to his left shoulder.
This Mayfield bullshit has gotten completely out of control. No one was even talking about this fucking kid as a 1st rounder until just 3 months ago.
Now there are goofs in this fanbase who want to take him over Darnold/Rosen. Fuck me.

I think its a smokescreen Jets want Allen or Darnold which in most Mocks go 1 and 2 they are hyping Mayfield hoping someone will draft him before 3. But there was 1 QB picked #1 who was smaller then Baker Michael Vick but Baker is not near the atheticism of Vick

He’s by far the most pro-ready of these guys, easily the best pure pocket passer of the bunch and tons of analysts and guys like Trent Dilfer have said that he and Bates are a match made in heaven. The only real concern with Rosen is durability. If the guy can just stay healthy, he’s virtually guaranteed to at least be a Top 15 QB for a decade. He’s a straight up Matt Ryan clone

Wont bitch about Rosen if hes the Jets choice, but good God, how many oft injured college players end up not oft injured in the pros? In 3 years as a starter in college he had 1 shoulder injury, and 2 concussions. I think the injury history is completely overblown. Everyone makes a huge deal about rosens concussions. But how come nobody wants to mention that Mayfield also had 2 concussions in the final 3 games of his 2015 season. Rosen is injury riddled because one time he landed on his shoulder awkwardly and had to miss a handful of games. Got it. Josh Rosen is the best qb in this draft by far. Jets would make a huge mistake if he's available and they pass on him.

Schefter said that basically none of the GMs in the league thought Rosen was the best QB.
Funny how almost nobody thinks Rosen will go in the first or second pick.
Listen, he may turn out to be a good QB. Or he may suck ass. Same goes for the other 3. And as I have said before, not one person here doesn’t suck at player evaluation.
Not one!
Everyone loves to go back and talk about the players they wanted that turned out good but fail to mention the players they liked that sucked ass.
