The bigger question I have is for the Cleveland Browns - Who in their right mind thinks it’s a good idea to take two RB’s and two QB’s in the first 5 rounds of the draft? No franchise has done this in the modern era. Why? Because it’s stupid. Amateur hour continues in Cleveland…

As a Steelers fan I am delighted to see this. They are the most incompetent front office while the ravens are probably the best.

Browns front office on draft day…

part of the hate is due to how espn handled it - they forced the conversation down viewers throats and in the process failed to highlight over guys who got picked. Deions kids seem like good kids overall. theyre confident and have been successful. nothing wrong with that. it looks like whoever was advising them (maybe Deion) misplayed the interview and pre draft process completely. the interview stuff was very real and it hurt him a lot.

This right here.
I'm not sure why many are overlooking this.

Nothing crazy about it at all.

It's a true statement & there's hundreds of comments in this very thread that prove it.

Miami fans are not special or separate from the rest of the country. We have just as many people with the same viewpoints as fans of teams like Bama, Ole Miss, UGA, etc..

If the shoe doesn't fit, then it obviously doesn't apply to you. But to say there are no Miami fans who don't have or haven't displayed a prejudice disdain for Shedeur that goes beyond the pale is disingenuous & inaccurate.

Shedeur hasn't done anything to receive the hate & vitriol he gets, particularly from this fanbase. Maybe if this was Colorado ST insight it could be justified, but there's no logical reason why Miami fans are gathered around the tree in such a way for a player who's guilty of the crime of self-confidence.

I just pointed out the unspoken element out loud.

If it's not true, then we'll see it play out again next season & there should be a brand new QB for the group to burn in effigy. We should see the same vitriol & fervor for some random QB on a random team that we have no rivalry with & don't play.

While there is a portion of people who dislike him simply for being a brash young black athlete, there's just as many people who just dislike the way he carries himself. There's confidence and there's entitlement. I'd make the argument that a lot of the people who hate on both Cam and Shedeur fall into that first category.

Notice Cam is all of those things Shedeur is except the entitlement. Shedeur threw a lavish party knowing he would be a top 5 pick. Cam showed up to the draft, showed his emotions knowing the opportunity in front of him, how humble he was about the experience, how ready he was to get to work and celebrated with fans.

It’s almost as if people have a disdain for what they perceive as arrogant ****y college athletes.

Nearly everyone was rooting for Tebow to fail.

All the pearl clutching over Manziel and his antics.

****, look at all the comments about Ward midseason from other fan bases.

If social media was around when Eli/Archie pulled their power play they would have been roasted too as power hungry, controlling, etc.

At the end of the day, the only people’s opinion that truly mattered was the 32 NFL teams and they emphatically said that Shaduer isn’t viewed nearly as high as his own self perception (which was allegedly on full display during team interviews and the most logical reason for the big fall). Possible 32 teams got it wrong? Absolutely. We’ll check back in 3-4 years.
