First round has to be OT. Seriously, stop messing around. 14 is a good spot for one of Wirfs / Wills / Jackson. Yes, I'm assuming we win the coin flip w Carolina. I'm not sold on the Louisville guy.
Second round has to be LB/S if Randall or Schobert walks.
We have Titans' 3rd in addition to ours because Duke Johnson is good [who knew?] so we'd have 14 and something in the 20's.. LB/S/DL.

Just checked, Wirfs isn't expected to declare. ?
Personally hoping for an Andrew Thomas bong rip video to surface.

well, so far, and I know it's ridiculous to do an entire mock draft, here is what I'm kinda coming up with.
Just a preliminary look-see and guessing at the first three rounds.
Browns
first round pick - about the 15th?
Isaiah Simmons, LB/S, Clemson, 6'3", 230 lbs,4.37Think a blazing faster, just as instinctive Schobert. He is an ***outstanding*** tackler. He can actually play safety and be a star. Not sure about Redwine as a starter. He can gain some weight, and become a ray lewis type lb. Lewis was 6'1", 240.
second round pick
Josh Jones, LT, Houston, 6'7", 320 lbsA lot of talk about him going in the first round. But it's a deep deep draft for tackles, so I can cheat. He can step in at LT by the season opener.
third round picks:
Marcus Norman, ROT, South Florida, 6'6", 316 lbsHubbard is just ok at best some of the time. But I really like this kid. A lot of fine OT's make this possible?
Jake Ferguson, TE, Wisconsin, 6'5", 250 lbs ...
can run a 4.65 maybe, but is a big pass catcher, willing blocker, and
loves the game. Gets open for several catches in big games when their wr's couldn't do much. Maybe Njoku is traded...something is up with that.

Even though you have him as only a 3rd round pick, I don't think TE is that high of a priority for us. The first 3 you mention: an killer LB and a couple of OTs sound good. I would probably go defense again with that 2d 3rd rounder.

The BROWNS do need defensive and OL help plus when will they know if "dumb dumb" Garrett will be back?
The BROWNS need all the help they can get to resume their quest for the AFCN dominance we thought they were building.

god i would love to have that young kid from osu instead of the moronic garrett.....me thinks he is going to get a 10 game suspension to start next season bringing the total to a yr....which i think if it does happen, he got off the hook....

How many picks do you think we have, Dutch???
We have:
- One 1st
- One 2nd
- Two 3rds (*corrected)
- One 4th (*corrected)
- One 6th, and
- Two 7ths
Thru today's games we set up to pick 14th.
As for when to start the draft talk... it's after underclassmen declare.
Right now this OL class is pretty thin... especially at OT... but after a dose of Juniors it looks a lot better.... at least two, 1st-round-quality LTs better.... and one is even named Thomas.

Not a good year to draft OTs. But they have to. And right now, they don't seem overly interested in resigning Schobert, so LB will definitely be drafted, and a S. I'd say two OTs, LB, S, an OG later. TE. Njoku can't stay healthy, all he still has is "potential."

That's a massive loss of $. Plus, his value to be in ads is null and void for at least 1 year. This stunt will cost him millions.

Screw Njoku....play Carlson. The position is fixed.

Call me curiously intrigued ?.. So I only caught the Buffalo vs Charlotte Bowl game yesterday.. Khalil Mack's younger brother Ledarius is a redshirt senior also playing at Buffalo. LB/ST/DE so he got my attention as a plug in pass rusher..Ledarius has no invite to Senior Bowl nor even the Shrine Bowl yet... Can a redshirt Senior transfer, get a invite or does Ledarius have to declare first?

Just because a guy is good does not mean that his brother will be just as good. Obviously it can happen (see: Bosa). Do you have any scouting report on this guy besides "he is Khalil's brother"?

One Early Mock Draft:

How would this Alex Leatherwood look on the Browns? Seems to me he is what we may need.

second round pick
Josh Jones, LT, Houston, 6'7", 320 lbsI like both players... a lot. Simmons looks like a top ten cinch to me and Jones a late 1st... maybe a bit higher if he goes off at The Combine. He's a 4-year starter, but played in a OT friendly, quick-pass scheme, so his tech is under-developed.
I don't think either falls to us where we will be sitting in those first two rounds, but could get within shouting distance... just depends how loud you are willing to shout. Problem is we can't shout at every player we like... such is life on the middle of rounds.
An alternative... assuming no one falls to us we like... is to trade down in the 1st where Josh might be a value pick as well as a need.

From Walter football......
Cleveland Browns: Mekhi Becton, OT, Louisville 
Perhaps the Browns will think twice about entering the season with Greg Robinson as their left tackle. They desperately need help on the offensive line.
At 6-7, 340, Mekhi Becton is a massive human being. Despite his size, however, Becton is athletic and flexible.And the neighbourhood the BROWNS might be in.....
-
Mekaleka Hiney-who?
Pretty sad 40 time...
OUCH. You can bet he will lose some weight and better THAT time. Actually, I really, really like Becton. He's a very big smart kid, loves the game, physical, far quicker feet that you'd think he'd have at 355/369 ? lbs. He's a leader... and some mocks have him in the first round...2nd and third rounds. I would think he's more a guard, in the pros...at RT? I think he may be a huge steal at ROG for the Browns. I thought he'd slide to the 4th or 5th, but it seems his stock is rising.

I'd never root for the Browns to lose.... but.... a loss next week probably cinches Freddie getting shitcanned AND the Browns near or in the Top 10 of the Draft.

Quite possibly... but to be clear... it's not the 40 time per se that bothers me, it's the 10-yd split that may be at the root of it.

One OT option that does not excite me, but that I have only looked at in game broadcasts.
