Rams pick #1 -- What does this mean for the Jags

#51

This is from the browns board, making the case that Ramsey will be the pick for Cleveland at 2.

 

Quote: 

The evidence for Ramsey:

 

1) The Browns may have tipped their hand by letting Gip go and releasing Whitner here, especially at the time they did. I think the unusual timing of Whitner's release speaks to some recent decisions being made about the players currently on the roster or about what they intend to do in the draft.

 

2) They've got an aging cornerback in Tramon Williams backed up by a 'hard-sleeper' and probably bust in Justin Gilbert. Campbell and Poyer might have potential, but drafting Ramsey can address multiple needs depending on how your other talent in the defensive backfield pans out. 

 

3) This wouldn't just be a need pick, it's a widely-held opinion that he'd be the best player available at two. I have little doubt he'd score well on the analytics side of things being from FSU.

 

4) Hue is in love with RG3, apparently. He's been essentially been given a 1-year prove-it deal. While I really don't think RG3's signing will impact the draft strategy in any way, one could argue that the signing gives them the flexibility to take Ramsey at #2 and draft a QB later in the draft. 

 

 

As for a trade-down, I honestly don't think this is all that likely, but I can't discount it. The one thing I thing we should discount is Wentz at #2. I don't think it's going to happen.
 

 

These arguments make sense to me.  If the Rams take the Browns preferred QB target at 1 (assuming the Browns are even interested in one of the QBs that high after signing RGIII), Ramsey makes some sense at 2 in Cleveland.

 

If...

 

1. Rams QB

2. Cleveland-Ramsey

3. SD Tunsil or Buckner

4. Dal Bosa, Elliott, Jack

5. Jags-Jack, Bosa, ???

 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
