If Keenum is the top 5 QB you say he is, why would we spend a top 5 pick on another QB?
Fair question.

What's wrong with you? You can't use stats against thestatman.
Browns have had offers for Kizer and have turned them down.

I looked up some history on NFL.com and came up with the grades from the top QBs since 2014. I assume they are using the same grading scale but I don't know that. Here is how everyone stacks up over the last 5 drafts.

Sam Darnold 2018 7.10
Jameis Winston 2015 6.70
Carson Wentz 2016 6.53

Mitchell Trubisky 2017 6.31
Marcus Mariota 2015 6.27

Josh Rosen 2018 6.19
Paxton Lynch 2016 6.17

Bryce Petty 2015 5.40
Bretty Hundley 2015 5.35
Darnold is the best prospect to come out in the last 5 years according to these grades and it isn't particularly close. I can't find NFL.com grades prior to 2014 so I don't know what Andrew Luck or RG3's grades were but I'd imagine Darnold isn't too far off from Luck.
Orange is pretty reliable with browns informationI have not heard that one reported. I've heard pundits claim he will be gone by the start of the year but haven't heard of rumors about offers. Do you know any more detail than that?
As bad as Kizer was this year, and he was bad, I think it's foolish to give up on the kid and sell him for peanuts. If you get something substantial for him, I'm all for it. Otherwise, let him compete in the QB room next year and see what happens. He still is 6'4 235lbs with a strong arm, good head on his shoulder, a leader and super young.
