It makes it a somewhat difficult decision, but the thought of getting a boatload of picks is too tempting IMO. Fwiw, they could trade down and still land Paxton Lynch. Then they could groom him, let RGIII start this year and still land some extra picks to build the team. 

I guess it all comes down to how they feel about Wentz (or maybe Goff). I would think that if they were thrilled about them as prospects, they wouldn't have signed RGIII and given him starter money. That said, they could've done that to keep teams from thinking they have to trade ahead of the Browns for Wentz/Goff.

I feel like if the plan was to develop Wentz/Goff/Lynch etc they would have/should have kept McCown.  There is no guarantee they get rid of him, but they NEED to at least try putting a real vet who can mentor (NOT RGIII and NOT like Hoyer) in front of a QB.  They never develop anyone, but McCown does play a style of football that gets him hurt a lot, so they would have to toss a rookie in there eventually, as it is.

Maybe the plan is to put McCown and RGIII in front of the rookie?  They really need to:

A.  Draft a QB who isn't some late-round nobody
B.  Draft a QB who isn't an obvious waste of time
