VIDEO: Mike Polk Jr. Sees If Chickens Are Better At Drafting Players Than Ray Farmer

OK, chickens! I see you!

Brandin Cooks & Kelvin Benjamin

Anthony Barr & ??

Khalil Mack & Marqise Lee

Sign me up for either of those options.

I always wonder how the Browns would be different if us regular Joes were in charge of making the team’s picks. Everyone on the Internet always thinks they could do a better job of evaluating talent. Truth is, they don’t know the first thing about evaluating players but it makes for a fun discussion. Watching 40 times at the combine and studying every mock draft that comes out between now and the 3rd week in April are staples of being a Browns fan.

If a pea brained chicken can assemble a decent squad, why is it so hard for the people whose job it is to actually know NFL talent?

If the chickens can draft well, why can’t the Farmer?

Browns select “Feast Mode” Danny Shelton. WE’RE BACK BABY!!!

Love it. Love it. Love it. The Browns needed help on the defensive line and Danny Selton provides that. Shelton, Phil Taylor, and Billy Winn… that sounds pretty good to me. Can’t wait for Danny Shelton to feast on all the AFC North running backs. Plus his nickname is “Feast Mode.” What’s not to like?

He also almost squeezed Roger Goodell to death

The Browns defensive players like the pick

Last night on Twitter we asked who the Browns should draft. It didn’t go so well.

So last night on Twitter after the Indians had lost their fourth straight game, I decided to try and rev up a little discussion about the Browns and the upcoming NFL Draft. Ya know, something to get our minds off of the Tribe and how shitty they’ve been playing lately. I tried to spark up some conversation and  get a feel on what the fine people of Cleveland wanted their football team to do on Thursday. Little did I know what I was walking into. I unexpectedly walked right into a giant spiderweb filled with sarcastic assholes (my favorite type of asshole).

The answers ranged everywhere from serious answers like “Leonard Williams” to “Does it matter?” to “Colt McCoy”

Also, if you’re not following @Bottlegate on Twitter, you’re a boob.

Let’s go through the responses:

A couple years ago I would’ve agreed with you. Not this year. Don’t want “RG-ME” (cc:pftcommeter) on my team.

Can Scott Atchison fill the A gap and make a tackle behind the line of scrimmage? Can Cody Allen catch a punt?

Got a decent amount of Indians responses which I wasn’t expecting at all.

Agreed. Football players who are on the football field are generally a good thing.

Two very good qualifications to have if you want to play in today’s NFL.

Low blow, bro. Low blow.

Really trying to convince myself that I don’t want DGB and I can’t do it. I want him and I want him bad. Sorry, some men just want to watch the world burn.

He’s probably a little too old & slow right now but can you imagine Perk at DT or DE about 6-7 years ago? THAT would be fun.

What’s one more quarterback? Bring him in!

Another quarterback? SIGN HIM UP!

Have you guys seen Coach Blatt’s daughters? Not bad. Not bad at all. (related: I actually have no idea if these are his daughters but this pic is floating around Twitter and everyone assumes they’re his daughters so they’re his daughters)

True. Tim Couch has a wayyy brighter future than Donovan McNabb. Also another quarterback. BRING HIM IN!

Big, strong, good hands. Used to the cold midwest weather. BRING HIM IN!

Now we get into 3 of the more depressing responses of the night:

Yes. But no. But yes. It does matter. I need a new jersey.

Damn. That one hit all 3 teams at once. Not gonna lie, this stung a bit. Not sure if 48 beers are enough.

And now for the most depressing response of the whole night:

What makes this so depressing is that it’s probably true.

See you Thursday!!!
