AUDIO Dan Kadar Wraps Up Combine

The NFL Combine has come and gone, and many NFL teams have a clearer picture of how they will select the top players coming out for the 2016 draft.

SB Nation's Dan Kadar joined Brad Russell in the Average Sports Show Monday to talk about some of the winners and losers from the combine, as well as who the Browns will select with their #2 overall selection.

Kadar said both Cal's Jared Goff and North Dakota State's Carson Wentz are both prime contenders to take over the reins at quarterback. He says that you have to go with the proven commodity, and he thinks that's Jared Goff.

"You have to go with the guy who's going to immediately jump in and be good right away, and that's Goff," he said.

 "Both of them have really positive skill sets, and that's what's going to make it a hard decision."

AUDIO Dan Kadar Talks Mock Draft

 

Dan Kadar from SB Nation spoke with Brad Russell about the Browns' draft position at #2 and he seems to think that Cal's Jared Goff is the long term guy the Browns have been looking for since the Boardman Bernie days.

"He compares to Matt Ryan (current Atlanta Falcons quarterback), strong arm, very intellegent, and it's the smart pick, it's the safe pick, and it makes the most sense," Kadar said.

There's a bit of a dropoff between Goff and Paxton Lynch from Memphis and Carson Wentz from North Dakota State. However, Kadar seems to think both are not worth a #2 overall selection coming up in April.

 "I'd do grade them (Lynch and Wentz) very similarly, and I'd be wary of taking either one of them in the Top 10."

 He (Kadar) says there's no real clear-cut #1 pick or quarterback prospect in this year's draft, but there are some solid prospects out there.
