REPORT: Browns talked to Panthers about move up from 12

[Shocker]

Moving down with Cleveland is very enticing IMO.  Risky but there will be a big time player at 12 with QB going earlier.  Maybe even McCaffrey.

NFL Network's Mike Silver reports the Browns have talked with three teams picking in the top eight about a trade up from No. 12.

Likely to select Myles Garrett at No. 1 overall, the Browns might have to move up from No. 12 for their latest "quarterback solution." The Browns have been linked to UNC's Mitchell Trubisky for months, but his stock is unclear. He could go anywhere from No. 2 to No. 12. The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported as recently as three days ago that the Browns were still seriously considering Trubisky at No. 1, but it's ultimately unlikely.

So we all agree you have reading comprehension issues right?

I'm not the brightest guys, but where does it say the Panthers were one of said three teams Cleveland talked to?

 

I'm not telling yalll to chill on some of this draft stuff, but yall need to chill.

SpecialJuan didn't pull that from thin air:

Three teams to which Silver might be referring in his report are in the back half of the top eight: the Titans, Jets and Panthers.

Panthers are not moving down from 8

I'd be *shocked* if we stay at 8 and make no other trades. That's not in the cards. We're either trading up or trading down or trading back into the 1st round. Gonna have to stay up to watch the entire first round people.

Hell yeah.  DO IT.  I don't think LF is dropping

[WOW!!]

My ideal scenario is us dropping to 12. 

In that scenario, Saints don't go full stupid and try for McCaffrey, and we get him.

Then trade up to get Njoku and you'll see a very happy man.

You were perfect until the trading up poo..

Keep the picks fill more holes with young talent..

yes. We would still only have 1 pick in the first + 33 or 52.

[2jakefansinva]

If we aren't talking to others teams about the cost of moving or listening to offers for the #8.......then our GM ain't doing his job.

[WOW!!]

Now this is a rumor i like..

[FuFuLamePoo]

Say bye bye to McCaffrey, then. Also if Tru is CLE's guy I feel like they'll need to move higher than 8.

The difference this year especially is that people fully buy in to each and every rumour. it seems.

To be fair, the Panthers haven't had a high pick since the introduction of social media where rumors are at an all time high. Twitter has really elevated rumors surrounding sports over the past few year and during those years we haven't had such sought after picks.

I personally enjoy hearing the rumors bc it kind of helps build the excitement of what will actually happen.
