Jim Mora created headlines last week when he said on NFL Network that, if he were making the Cleveland Browns' pick at No. 1, he would select USC quarterback Sam Darnold over his former UCLA QB, Josh Rosen.
Mora cited "fit" and "blue-collar, gritty attitude" for why Darnold was better for the Browns than Rosen, who he coached with the Bruins the past three seasons. Mora was fired by UCLA in November.
In an interview Sunday with Sports Illustrated, Mora stood by his opinion that Darnold is a better fit for the Browns.
