I know that they've been playing better, but they're still a dumpster fire and we have just about all of the other positions that we need.
Please make it happen.

Wouldn't that be a trip?
Why wouldn't they hire someone that's qualified?
I love what Marvin has done here in that aspect, but it would be stupid to hire him over any qualified GM.

I assume the AJ to the browns ship has sailed.Why draft a QB first overall when you know that you have a proven QB in McCarron to run the team and he's also proven that he's a winner (should have brought us our first playoff victory in over two decades if Hill didn't suck at life and ruin all of our hopes and dreams)?
They have the picks to do it and, if nothing else, they trade away the top pick that they'd use on a QB and get more picks to build around AJ or the other way around.
Since they wanted him mid-season, there's no reason to think that they'd shy away from trading for him in the offseason, even if the deal isn't AS sweet.

They can pick whatever QB they want in the draft and will not give up the first pick of the second round on a RFA. As for starting a rookie QB they will have a solid offensive line in front of him and really... they can't get worse than going 0-16.
AJ is a proven winner in the NFL for RIGHT NOW.

Lamar Jackson looks like a LOT like RGIII to me. Too frail to run around like that at the NFL level. Even throws like RGIII.
Josh Rosen's teammates apparently dislike him. He's been compared to Jay Cutler for his disposition. Reputation as a party animal.
Sam Darnold has a big windup. Personnel guys hate his delivery.
Josh Allen has been labeled a bit of a project. Impressive physically, but lacks feel for the game and touch on short throws.
Baker Mayfield is Manziel 2.0. Ran from the police while drunk, grabs his crotch on the field, trash talking, etc.
Fwiw, I don't think the Browns will wait on a QB though. They've done that 2 years straight with Cody Kessler and DeShone Kizer. It looks like they were aiming to build the roster up some and THEN take their QB. I think that happens in 2018.
Thanks for the analysis.
I don't think they'll wait on a QB, but all those red flags also make it more likely that they'll want to go with a proven guy like McCarron, especially since Hue's familiar with him.
To anyone saying that AJ would just be a stopgap, he's only 27 (will be 28 a week into the season), with very little wear-and-tear on his body! He could play at a high level for 7 to 10 more years......... maybe longer!
MAKE THIS HAPPEN!
