REPORT: Browns talked to Panthers about move up from 12

[Shocker]

#8 is such a sweat spot...will a great player drop to us?  Probably.  I totally see Allen being there.  But the more I see, if Hooker is there we HAVE to do it.  He is amazing.  Thomas too.  Otherwise McCaffrey will retire as a GREAT Panther. My 2cents.

[Verge]

Yep, confirmed this, they have talked to a couple of teams in the top 8, including us about moving up, they want it done before the draft if possible.

If we drop to 12, I imagine John Ross would be very much in play if CmC is off the board.

John Ross at 12?  More likely we take Marion Ross at 1.  No way.  No offense but.  No way.

12 is a little rich for sure, but if Howard, both rbs, Adams, etc are off the board, it seems like it could happen.

I seriously hope Ross goes early.  We should move down to 12 and see what happens.  I like our chances at 12 with the extra picks.

What about Barrett? MCM? DCook? Solomon? 

I am not sure what your "etc" means but trust me brother, all I want is a 10 year stud, game changer, SB bound player.

Ross is a Lambo in the garage more often than not IMO.

This is coming from the guy who just started a thread with the premise we should give up everything to get LF.

Can we get confirmation that the Panthers were one of the 3 tesms mentioned in the report?

I don't see that anywhere. Can someone link it not as a tweet since i cant see those in the mobile app?

Thanks.

I want San Fran to trade down to 12 with Cleveland, and watch Cleveland take Trubisky. Then I want Chicago to take Adams. Then, Jacksonville can take Watson. Then Tennessee can trade down with Cincy so they get Fournette. And then the Jets take Hooker. And Chargers take Thomas, giving them a crazy good pass rush duo. -Panthers trade down to 10 so Buffalo can get a QB in Kizer. Tennessee gets Allen at 9.
Panthers trade down to 12 with San Fran, who wants to move ahead of Aints to get Mike Williams, so Shanahan has his new Julio. They'll also take Mahomes with a later pick.

New Orleans then goes pass rush with Charlton.

Panthers on the clock at 12. Barnett, Lattimore, Howard and McCaffrey are the best available. Wait...we have another trade...Eagles are now on the clock and they select Howard, fearing the Cards might take him. This gives Wentz a great option for when Alshon and Wallace can't get open.

Cards take Lattimore, and now have an insanely good secondary. They love this pick.

Panthers now on the clock at 14. They finally settle and take McCaffrey.

Full trade details: #8 and #98 for #10 and #75. Then #10 for #12 and #109. Then #12 for #14 and #99.

Panthers end up with #14, #40, #64, #75, #99, #109, and #115.

pie for the effort - and the username.  Now you need to bundle 40, 75, and 109 to get back in the first for a TE.  We need 5-6 solid players/contributors out of this draft.  I doubt more than that can make this team.

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.

If we land any combo of Fournette/McCaffrey/Howard/Njoku we're going to the Super Bowl remember who told ya

No need to bundle to get a TE. Godwin at 40, Butt at 75. Offense is revamped with youth just like that.

At 64, Trey Hendrickson. At 99, Desmond King.

Now you've got DB, DE, TE, WR, RB. The other 2 picks can be traded or used on LB and OL.

King can play S or CB, so he starts off as depth at CB and moves to S eventually. But there's a spot somewhere in the secondary he'd fit and be better than some current roster guys.

Hendrickson theoretically would be solid depth at DE, and someone would lose their roster spot for him.

McCaffrey replaces CAP on the roster. Butt finds a spot. Godwin battles with Charles Johnson and Bersin for a spot.

You've got Godwin, Funch, Benji, CMc, Shepard, Olsen, Stew, Cam, and Butt as your main offensive weapons now. That's called evolving.

I like the positions you filled, but you still have picks 109, 115, 133, 152, 192, and 233 unaccounted for.  I'd bundle these for better guys.  For example bundling 40/75 nets us Engram instead of Butt.  Bundling 64/109 nets us Godwin (although I kind of like Henderson, who we could probably get at 64).  Bundling 99/115 could net us Rivers, Kpass, or Walker instead of Hendrickson.  Then we bundle 152/192 for Corn Elder instead of King.  Finally at 233 we pick Tevi or Kalis for the offensive line development.
