player. 53. <p>You can talk all that quarterback stuff you want but there isn’t one worth the No. 2 overall pick. Jared Goff may be the only one worth a top-10 pick altogether as he’s the only one ready to play now. That’s why Brock Osweiler and Sam Bradford got the big money they got in free agency.</p> <p>So the Cleveland Browns signed Robert Griffin III to enable them to get the best player available. And LB Myles Jack is the best player in the 2015 NFL Draft but won’t go No. 1 overall because of the Titan’s pass-protection issues. There are a lot of people calling Jack “the next Ray Lewis” these days.</p> <p>And the Baltimore Ravens got 17 years with 13 of them as a Pro Bowler and seven as an All-Pro. Lewis led the Ravens to the playoffs in 10 of those years and to the Super Bowl twice, winning both. If Jack makes half of that type of impact on the Browns, “Money Ball” got off to a good start.</p> <p>Jack looks like he has a 2016 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year and few future NFL Defensive MVPs in him. So there’s no way the Browns can turn down building through the draft on defense first. Head coach Hue Jackson can make do with what he has on offense with RGIII and likely Josh Gordon.</p>. ILB. UCLA. Myles Jack. 2
