All right. So if you talk to me like whatever and said the Jaguars are going to trade up to two and the Browns are going to trade down to five, I'm not piling on the Browns at all. they collected all these picks. What's crazy is if you look at the entire Jaguars draft class, you say, okay, they got Travis Hunter and they sacrificed and they gave up a draft pick and that's fine.

If you look at the entire Browns draft class, They absolutely crushed it. The only oddity is the two quarterbacks. So that steals the headlines.

But they added starters at like every position and they picked up a first round pick.
