    Mayfield leading the offense and Adams leading the defense would make this such an exciting team to watch.

    We could trade back to four or five.

    Thats just his way of saying I'm not giving you a real answer, next question please.

    The only thing that would reek of stupidity is beliveing anything that comes out of a Mac or Bowels press conference. These two are the anti Rex/Tannenbum team. They keep their true opinions super close, answer almost every question with a non answer, and when they do let out something that seems valueable its almost always a smokescreen of some sort.

    It would seem crazy to move down after giving up so much to move up. Anyone that he would move down for would have been there at @6.

    We won't be trading down from here... If we do move, it will be up.

    Honestly. What is Bowles going to say?

    "When we had the sixth pick, I had a hard-on for man machine god Quenton Nelson, but since we traded up to pick 3 I now believe him to be a fairy powder puff turd bucket".

    I mean you can, but why does everything have to be so negative. and if you do insult him it should be for legit reasons, not insulting him for not doing something he actually did because you were unaware

    That was not insulting that is being descriptive. Just because someone doesn't like it does not make it insulting. Macc has been horrible at his job and sorry if I'm not a homer and going along with it just because he's the GM.

    it was a poor "description" when you said

    because at the time you made your post, it was common knowledge he did try and trade up to the 1 and 2 spot but was declined. So essentially you got mad at him, for not doing something, that he actually did do, you just weren't aware of.

    He was either late or clueless. Cleveland traded with Buffalo. If they draft was so important and with all in trades being compared to carson Went, Macc should have went for it lock stock and barrel. What he did was tease because I'm not thinking Allen was his guy and darnold and Rosen were the ones everyone was talking about. He did this all before the pro days. Now teams and pundits think Allen might go #1. I love this time of the year and this last month should be exciting so Solid we will just have to wait and see. I'm not thrilled about making the pick and sitting out the draft till the 3rd round.

    Not when you posted this and even now I see no news of cleveland trading their 1 pick to buffalo so no idea what you are talking about here. do you have a source?

    how did he tease? he tried to trade up to 1, Cleveland declined, he tried to trade up to 2, NYG declined, he tried to trade up to 3 and IND accepted. it takes 2 teams to trade, you can't fault mac for 2 teams not wanting to move down. he did everything he could to land us in a position to get our FQB. that's all you can ask for. He also made a huge offer to kurt, but was turned down for less money to go to a team better suited to win a SB over the next 2 years. You can't fault him for that either. He shed dead weight and replaced aging players with better, cheaper younger players. He used the money to improve the o-line and sign one of the best Cbs in the league and the top FA ILB who is only 26. he got us cheap insurance for enunwa with pryor and even got QB insurance taking a stab at teddy. He's literally done an excellent job this off season so far. I cna't see how anyone else could say otherwise

    I just want the draft to be over with so I can know if I should be disappointed/pissed (Allen), ecstatic (Rosen or Mayfield) or indifferent (Darnold)

    What's he supposed to say? Of course he gave it the old, maybe. Keep them guessing. Played perfectly.
