Did the Browns F - up the Draft?

Early in the process it looked like it would be Shedeur at 2, and then it changed to Abdul Carter.

If they got Abdul Carter opposite Myles Garret that would have been insane.
I'm very happy this didn't happen (happy for Burrow's sake).

So not only do the Browns not go for the scariest option of having two premier pass rushers..
But the Browns don't draft Travis Hunter to pair with Shadeur.

I guess they get a few picks out of it.
In my eyes the ideal play would be to get Travis and Shadeur; they already have the chemistry (like Burrow/Chase).

Not saying college will translate for Shadeur, but I just don't understand the logic of the browns here.

It's a two player draft and you don't draft one of those two players.

They obviously didn't know that Sanders would fall to round fifth round, but the stupidest part for me is taking Sanders after taking Gabriel that early. Makes sense that Haslim forced the pick because it makes no logical sense. I don't even think Mike Brown in the 90s/ealry 00s would have made that move.

Had this been a strong quarterback class, I can maybe understand because you'd be getting two stars and maybe you could trade one, but it's not like any of these guys are Peyton Manning.

I thought the days of senior citizen owners making big calls were over, but I guess not.

It's a positive for us, especially if he forces the coaches to play Sanders and they can't get any value of their quarterback room.

I tried asking my friend from college (die-hard Browns fan and he was an accounting major, so we had a lot of classes together) and even he refuses to talk about it lol.
