2014 NFL Draft - First Round

Draft Selection

May 8, 2014

Tuned into AM 850 over the Internet at 8:07 p.m. Wall-to-wall Browns draft coverage all day today. I listened to AM 850 on the radio while working in the backyard this afternoon.

Although, 2014 draft talk for the Browns began last September on AM 850.

The NFL is the only sport that I follow. It's a fun, relaxing escape.

The "thinking" is the Browns will take Sammy Watkins WR Clemson at #4 and T. Bridgewater QB Louisville at #26.

Another thought is the Browns will trade down their #4 pick and trade up their #26 pick.

It has to be pretty wild in the Browns draft war room.

At 8:10 p.m., Aaron Goldhammer reported that the Houston Texans will take Jadeveon Clowney DE S Carolina at #1 overall. Tony Grossi just said that he thinks Clowney will be a bust. That's also the thinking of Jerod Cherry, who I enjoy slistening to. Jerod played for three Super Bowl winning teams at New England. Tony Rizzo is also on hand. They're all broadcasting on location at the Hard Rock Rocksino at Northfield Park.

At 8:14 p.m., Tony Grossi thinks St. Louis with the #2 pick will try to trade down with Atlanta who has the #6 pick.

At 8:15 p.m., NFL commissioner announced the first pick, which was Clowney. He's a physical specimen.

Jerod said he would have chosen Khalil Mack OLB Buffalo or one of the other offensive tackles.

It is strange that Clowney only had three sacks in his final year in college.

Scouts Inc rated Clowney as the best player in the draft.

At 8:19 p.m., Aaron said St. Louis plans to take Greg Robinson OT Auburn. Scouts Inc ranks Robinson as the second best player in this year's draft.

The Top 10 rated players per Scouts Inc.:

1. Jadeveon Clowney DE S Carolina
2. Greg Robinson OT Auburn
3. Khalil Mack OLB Buffalo
4. Sammy Watkins WR Clemson
5. Jake Matthews OT Texas A&M
6. Aaron Donald DT Pittsburgh
7. Mike Evans WR Texas A&M
8. Taylor Lewan OT Michigan
9. Zack Martin OT Notre Dame
10. O. Beckham Jr. WR LSU

At 8:23 p.m., Aaron said a photo is circulating on social media of Johnny Manziel QB Texas A&M drinking a beer, a Coors Light possibly. No problem with the dude drinking a brewski, but he needs to upgrade to something else.
