He is better then Hunt. Now is the fall off between Barkley and a 2nd round RB (Guice Kerryon Chubb) enough to grab him at 1 or 4 rather then a QB and/or top defensive player is the question. Because the Browns can get a very good starting RB in the 2nd/3rd can't say that about a lot of positions. Really bringing in Hyde and having Duke Jr. the Browns are better at RB then most any other position.
Really think the Browns end up trading down with one of their picks. Grabbing a QB with one and getting multiple 1st rounders for the other. Rb's have such a short shelf life and now without Thomas left tackle/line is a position that needs addressed. But Bo in his prime is a scary thought. Hell it would be a safe bet the Jets grab the wrong guy so getting multiple 1's to move down 2 spots maybe a great play. [Reply]

How is Barkley out right better than Hunt? Can Hunt catch, hell yes. Can Hunt break tackles, hell yes. Can Hunt block, hell yes. Can Hunt evade defenders and stiff arm, hell yes. Can Hunt run 50 yard tds, hell yes.
What exactly is Barkley so much better at besides the under wear olympics? [Reply]

Look, I love me some Kareem Hunt, but trying to make the argument he’s as good and as talented as Barkley? I just don’t see it. If you offered me either one right now, same contracts, same theoretical situation, I’m taking Barkley every day and twice on Sunday. No, there’s no guarantees and he could sustain a serious injury or something, but he’s as close to a sure thing since Bo Jackson at RB. He’s that good.
We’ll see, I guess . . . .
And FTR, Hunt has a a LOT to work on with his blocking. His pass protection ‘skills’ got exposed several times last year and put the Chiefs in a hole. Luckily, that’s something he can work on and be taught. [Reply]

No QB worth trading for in that Horrible draft class. Miami traded to get Dieon Jordan (DE) at #3 and Raiders drafted a CB & LT with traded picks. None of those players are on their respective team anymore. Best player drafted high that year was Richard Sheildon at 12 or 13.

This draft is much different.
Look at the 2013 draft. Is it possible that Travis Kelce would be the #1 pick in a redraft?
