Joe Thomas was fishing on Lake Michigan when he heard the news....that's who he was. Now he will be in the HOF in 2023...

Jankowski was the best player on their team for years. Top 5 kicker in the league for most of his 20 year career. Turned out to be a decent pick.

The best part of the Janikowski pick is the die hards waiting for the pick, and then back to growling like pirates like they just drafted a killing machine

So used to seeing fans pissed off by the pick, yet the Raiders fans of all people were happy about drafting a kicker😂 Janikowski was a beast though

Heyward-Bey is always a classic lmfao

Sebastian had a 20 year career, great pick!

Mayock AND Eisen on the mic....just the fuggin best.

Some of these don't seem like they were surprises. Winston to Tampa Bay certainly wasn't. Everyone knew it was Winston probably or maybe Mariota. The shock is that neither worked out in the NFL. Alex Smith wasn't a shock either - obviously didn't work out the way the Niners wanted when they went with him over Rodgers, but not a shock. I don't think it was a shock that Manzel went in the first round, someone was going to make that mistake, I would almost be shocked if it wasn't the Browns that made it with the way they were drafting at the time.

How was the Browns picking Joe Thomas in 2007 more shocking than the Dolphins taking Ted Ginn at #9? The Ginn pick was stunning.

Michael Penix Jr 😂

The Browns really took a 28 yr old QB in round 1.

Just a Browns Draft Fail Compilation 😂

These are mostly accurate for sure. Though I think Ted Ginn in 2007 or Blake Bortles in 2014 were bigger surprises

If not for injuries, Jake Long would have had a potentially HOF career. Shine bright for that short period of time he was healthy

Here's my analysis: Sebastian Janikowski spent nearly 2 decades as the Raiders' placekicker. Jamal Reynolds was an injury bust. Levi Jones was above average. Kevin Williams had an All-Pro career. Eli Manning got traded for Philip Rivers, which was a win-win. Alex Smith was a late bloomer. Mario Williams was pretty good. Joe Thomas is already in the Hall of Fame. Jake Long had a good start to his career before he got injured. Darrius Heyward-Bey was fast. And that's all. Tim Tebow had only one season as the main starter. Jake Locker retired after the end of his rookie contract. Brandon Weeden was too old. Dion Jordan was a complete bust. Johnny Manziel was another massive bust. Jameis Winston is now a backup. Eli Apple is an unlikeable player. Mitch Trubisky had one Pro Bowl season but he was drafted ahead of Patrick Mahomes. Baker Mayfield was just named to his first Pro Bowl... but Cleveland still gave up on him. Daniel Jones is below average. Jordan Love is finally a starter. Ja'marr Chase is a Top 5-10 receiver.

I completely forgot the Browns took a “rookie” QB who was 28 years old. How does that even happen? Oh and they also took Trent Richardson.🤣🤣🤣

Update this for Michael Penix Jr. pick.

Seeing the 2020 draft coverage 3 years later gave me PTSD. 2020 was such a trip 😂😂

How many times does this have to fucking be said, the Vikings did NOT forget to make a pick. They had a trade set up and the other team did not send in their paperwork quickly enough. Vikings STILL got the guy they wanted, Kevin Williams who is a borderline HoF player.

13:07 I'll always remember the 2021 draft as I was in the hospital with some really bad pain in my stomach/abdomen. I was getting an ultrasound done when the bengals took chase. They ended up diagnosing me with appendicitis and i had surgery the next day

The Eli Apple pick was depressing

Fun facts about Janikowski: "One of only three NFL kickers to be selected in the first round of an NFL draft, Janikowski is the Raiders' all-time leading scorer and appeared in more games with the franchise than any other player."

2:45 Fun fact about Alex Smith going #1, he and NBA player Andrew Bogut became the first players to go #1 in the NBA and NFL in the same year from the same college. Also, Long wasn't a shocking pick. I remember hearing at the time that the Dolphins had already signed Long prior to the draft.

Heyward-bey was a complete shock to everyone. Most mocks had him going at the end of the first round and he ended up at 7. Shit was a complete suprise

2007 wasn’t a shocking pick at all. Joe Thomas was an elite tackle up until he retired. That would be one of the safer picks for any team, especially the Browns to do.

Imagine booing Joe Thomas because you wanted Brady Quinn

As a Steelers fan, I’ll always be grateful for Eli Manning’s dad making him not play for the chargers. I forget how it ended up happening exactly, but it let the Steelers end up with Ben. Both went on to win 2 super bowls. Giants 🤝🏻 Steelers

Jalen Reagor over Jefferson is more of a shock than JaMarr Chase lol

Janikowski ended up being a really great early pick

That love pick was great

Love that every other pick is a browns pick haha

6:52 using your 22nd pick on a 28 year old rookie is crazyyy

Richard Seymore in the 2001 nfl draft by New England was the best tremendously terrific player winning 3 super bowl championships now he's a pro football hall of famer 0:46

God I love the NFL draft chime so much

Eli Apple 💀💀

That Darius Hayward Bay pick has got to be the craziest. Guy was projected middle of the second and was taken top 10. 😂😂😂

Most became solid NFL players

This vid shows how bad the Browns have been at using their draft picks. They probably could have traded all of their high 1st round picks for TWO first round picks. It's harder to bungle when you have two picks, not just one. That's an easy adjustment.

For 2020 I would have put the Eagles drafting Reagor over Jefferson

Pretty petty the amount of booing considering these guys are busting ass to entertain the fans, it’s as shame

Thought I would have seen Clelin Ferrell on this list

28 year old qb in the 1st round was such a browns thing to do.

2011 should've been Danny Watkins, offensive guard the Eagles took 23rd overall. As a junior fireman Watkins studied fire sciences at Butte College, eventually recruited on to play football at 22 years old, I'm guessing his senior year there. At 22 he had never played before. After that season he was eligible to transfer to anywhere to play football on a full scholarship, attending Baylor. He'd go on to play 4 years there, and showed up to 2011 NFL draft at the young age of 26! As good of a GM that Howie Roseman has been, this a long with taking Jalen Reagor over Justin Jefferson have been the most baffling choices I've seen any GM make

I love how Cleveland fans treat the draft the same way they treat their team in their stadium-just straight booing the shit out of their own choices.

Who the the 2009 should have shown was the Raiders 2nd round pick. Safety Mike Mitchell from the Ohio Bulldogs, who was pick 47! Mel Kiper Jr. had him anywhere between the 40th to 75th safety in the class, who ended up being the 4th one picked. ESPN did not even have a photo or stats ready to show on TV. EVERYONE said the Raiders could have most likely gotten him as an undrafted free agent. Man I miss Al Davis on Draft days!

As a raider fan I like the pick hall of famer maybe 🤔

Mario Williams had a better career than Reggie bush anyway, joe thomas a legend Brady Quinn was a bust. Jake long was good before the injuries

I think had manziel and Tebow been used right, it would have been another story. I would have used them not as an every down qb but just an option, maybe in 3rd down situations and trick plays. Both guys were great runners and good at making something out of nothing. But they were anomalies at qb, definitely not going to have either guy run your offense which is why they failed

Jameis Winston was not shocking lol he was the consensus first overall pick going into the draft that year

Wow am I glad the fans have taken to booing Roger instead of the players. These boys dont deserve that

Teams really adjusted how they observe and draft QBs after all these fucking miserable busts in the mid 2000s and 2010s Godamn

I’d argue that Clelin Ferrell going 4th in the 2019 Draft was a bigger surprise. Josh Allen (not the QB) and Devin White were standing right there and Ferrell wasnt even being considered a 1st rounder. Whats even worse is that the Raiders had 2 late 1st round picks that they couldve used on Ferrell if they wanted him so bad

Video would be better if we knew why they were shocjk picks and who was the expected selection.

This deserves more attention

There was nothing even remotely shocking about the Bucs picking Jameis 1st overall in 2015

2000: To be fair, if a kicker ever deserved the first-round pick, were there many better than Janikowski?

Oh shit secret base!

It’s funny hearing these overreactions now. In the grand scheme of things , was Jake Locker over Blaine Gabbert really that big of a deal?

Raider nation

Trubisky? Trubisky!

some "shocking" most were not

2019 shocker was Clelin Ferrell by the Raiders.

Lot of Browns and Giants in this 😂

Clelin Ferell should've been in here... that to me is CLEARLY the most wtf pick from that draft. Me and everyone I knew watching that draft were so confused on why they took him in the first round, let alone in the top 5.

How funny is it that the first team in the video is the raiders but it did turn out to be a pretty good pick

anyone remember when the raiders took Alex Leatherwood

Wasn’t Jake long signed a few days before the draft? I don’t remember it as being shocking

I'm surprised Jalen hurts wasn't on here. Kinda in the same category as Danny Jones and Jordan Love only Rodgers and Manning were getting old. Carson Wentz fans still were hoping he could work out and he was much younger. In hindsight, that's probably Howie rosemans best draft pick ever, but it sure shocked us at the time.

In 2006 they signed Williams prior to the draft so not sure how that’s a twist

Ja'Marr Chase a shocking pick? LOL

Eli being picked by San Diego was not shocking though. Sure, Eli may have said he wasn't going to sign there but San Diego made it known before the draft they were still going to pick him. Much like how the Colts took Elway even though he said he wasn't go to sign there. Alex Smith was also not a shock. He was hyped as being a 1st overall ptospect while at Utah.

trading up a pick only to draft mitch tribusky with one of the greatest qbs ever in the same draft is the worst draft move ever and it ain’t close

The raiders have had the most head scratching picks ever

This video is a great idea but you need to remind the fans who the Giants could have drafted instead of Daniel Jones, etc.

Brandon weeden 😂

This list could just be every QB the Browns have taken.

Cellin ferrel at 3?

I went to high school with Eli apple

dude a lot of these weren't surprises mario williams signed the day before same with jake long.

Bears still punching the air over Trubisky.

How did they not mknow with Jake Locker ???? Dude was 15-25 as a starter. I knew the second Jameisnwas drafted he was a bust. His windup was way too slow

A good amount of these picks were legitimate needs at the time. Not sure why they're in a video about shocking picks.

2019 you could have gone with no.4 pick Clelin Ferrell

Texans take c.j stoud at 2 And trade up to get anderson at 3 Most shocking trade up since years

Goes to show fans literally know nothing - Joe Thomas and Jake Long were two of the best players in this clip, and at their position for a long time, and they both got booed. Just because it's a "boring" pick, doesn't mean it's a bad one. And they cheered for Manziel LOL.

0:31 who???

Jake Long at #1 to Miami wasn't shocking. We just have the ability to look back now and know Matt Ryan had a great career. But Ryan was far from some sure thing in the scouting community.

This might as well be called “Browns Draft History.”

It's kind of hard to call half of these "shocking" - at least shocking at the time the picks were made.

Tom Brady picked at 6th round 😂

34 days !!

Alot of the "surprise" picks that you put in this video weren't surprise picks at all. A surprise pick, when it comes to the NFL is one that none of the analyst saw coming or stated was going to be chosen. A number of times, the analyst would mention the player drafted was a possibility. Maybe it was a surprise for you who made the video. Put that in the headline instead of making it out to seem every pick was a legitimate surprise. Very disappointing. Thumbs down

Lots of Browns picks

Boy some of these didn’t age well

2019 I think Clelin ferell was the most wtf pick

The Browns dominated this video.

That 2005 #1 overall pick EVERYONE had Aaron Rodgers going first and they go and take Alex Smith, Rodgers slides all the way to 25th and Jesus Christ. As a Cowboys fan, I'll never forgive San Fran. That guy just murdered us like it was a part time job

Daniel Jones was by far the biggest reach, he wasnt even looked at in the second round much less 6th overall, heyward bey was at least considered a bottom first to second rounder

Most of these were not shocking at all, were the obvious pick that everyone expected, and had much more shocking ones, like Alex Smith was guaranteed to be the #1 pick but Aaron Rogers falling to the Packers was a truly shocking moment when they had Favre, no one expected that

Imagine forfeiting a top 10 pick because you forgot to pick 😂skoL
