Regarding the defensive guy we got from the Bengals...   

"CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Former Bengals defensive end Chris Smith is switching sides in the Battle of Ohio.

The fifth-year defensive end is expected to reach an agreement on a three-year deal with the Browns, a league source confirmed for cleveland.com. It was first reported by Peter Schrager of NFL Network.

You might not remember Smith, 26, but DeShone Kizer probably does. The defensive end combined for a sack on the former Browns quarterback in the Browns' 30-16 loss to the Bengals on Nov. 26th."

Ambling around last night, and had a chat with one of my Bengals season ticket holder acquaintances.  He's POed the Bengals let him walk, and can't figure out why. Says he's pretty decent.

He could be a guy for us.  Or Poe...who is the next highest ranked on the link you gave who is not spoken for.  #15 on that list.

Second:   OL  Justin Pugh  #16

Third on the list:    LB Zach Brown  #17

Next:    Safeties Kenny Vaccaro and Eric Reid    #s 21 and 22

Safety Morgan Burnett  #26

Then    Terrelle Pryor  #30

#31  EJ Gains CB

#32  AJ McCarron QB

#34  Jack Mewhort  OL

#35  Tyler Eifert   TE

Are the Browns in play for any of these?

Per CBS sports.....the Browns have signed  3 of the Top  50 available FAs so far:

#29 TJ Carrie CB

#39 OT  Chris Hubbard

#48 RB Carlos Hyde

Also....according to the same source, there are still 11 of the Top 50 FAs who have not yet been signed:

#11 DT Sheldon Richardson

#16 OT/OG Justin Pugh

#18 CB Rashaan Melvin

#19 S  Morgan Burnett

#25 OC Ryan Jensen

#26 LB Navarro Bowman

#27 S  Kenny Vaccaro

#28 S Eric Reid

#30 OG Jack Mewhort

#32 CB Tre Boston

#36 CB Eric Gaines

So Should the Browns make a move on any of these?

I'd definitely check out Melvin. 17th highest ranked CB by PFF last year.
