Per. NFL.com, Marvin plans to be at Mayfield's pro day today. Interesting, wouldn't you say?

Not a fan of taking him with first round pick with all the needs we have. 

Plus with all the QB's picked up in FA there is going to be a couple slip through the cracks and fall. 

But it would be a move for Marvin to get extended 4 more years saying he never really got his chance with new QB.

Because do not see him starting this season and believe we need immediate starters in first couple rounds to turn this ship around imo.

Marvin is undoubtedly there to see if Brown is at least marginally better than his combine. No way that Mayfield falls to 21 and there is even less chance that we would trade back up.

Really, it's head-scratching that the article assumes that Mayfield is why Marvin is attending.

Mayfield will be there around that range.

QB's are funny.  You never know.  This is a deep group of FA QB's so he might.

Yeah, how do we know Marvin was there to watch Mayfield specifically?

LOL smoke and mirrors.
Too many players there to see like Brown, Okoronkwo and Andrews, overall a total of 19 players there. So while there why wouldn't he take a few and watch Mayfield?
If Mayfield is there in the 2nd....then we might be taking him, otherwise we still have to much to fix before we try to switch QB's.

Hey, if he fell to 21? I'd be all for it.

In terms of touch and accuracy, he's probably the best this draft has to offer (maybe behind Rosen). And his biggest weakness, his height, is only 1 inch less than Dalton's
and the same weight so...Probably not too bad.

I doubt he falls that far though.

I imagine they're there just to check the boxes.

Entering the final era of marvin.

Dalton has a few years left on his deal with min dead money.

our backup QB is trying to find a new home


Preparing for the future isn't a bad idea. especially if we can give the next QB  a few years to learn before having to jump in the fire like Andy had to.

Worse case we have to draft another backup in 4 years

I don't think Marvin is there specifically for Mayfield. I think he's there for Brown first and foremost followed by Mark Andrews.

I just don't see Mayfield being around at 21. I don't even know if he would've made it to pick 12 when we had it.

He was there for Brown. He made comments on Brown at the combine about having to look into what happened and being interested in talking to him. Marvin has ties to his father through the Ravens and mutual friends. The Mayfield spin is just click bait.

Looking at Brown.

Marvin wants to win now, and he's not going to start all over with a new QB.

Also, let's not forget that we had two three game losing streaks last season and still finished 7-9.

Not to mention that he's not going to get rid of a key piece of our core when we're making all these changes with coaches to better utilize the talent that we have.

Sure, I'd take Mayfield to back up Andy for the next 4 years.

I could see us drafting him in two circumstances one we trade Dalton t ( won't happen relax not saying it would so don't jump all over me on this) 2 he slips to the second round. Their not drafting a QB early unless they get a super duper deal for Andy though.

I’d say Marvin was there to see if Brown improved on his implosion at the Combine. I’m sure he watched Mayfield as more of a due diligence case since Mayfield may wind up in the division with Cleveland.

Good Lord, he's there to see Orlando Brown and probably Andrews as well.

Along with 20 other teams.....no news here.

So apparently Brown did a little better than his combine numbers. He did 18 reps at the bench press compared to 14 at the combine
