Do you have any idea how teams assign value to draft picks? The number one pick in the draft is worth a ransom. Moving up two or three spots, to number one overall, normally involves multiple picks in the future (at least some of which are first rounders). So maybe the Bengals trade McCarron and this entire draft. Perhaps McCarron, the nine this year, a second, and a first next year. It would take A LOT to get the Browns to move out of the number one spot.
I see Foster coming in and contributing on day one.. so sound pick to me
