^^ How Browns fans ranked the team's positions of need for the 2021 NFL Draft

https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2021/04/ranking-positions-browns-fans-think-andrew-berry-should-target-in-the-draft.html

I just don't like most the results of waiting to take a DE in the 2nd round.. here's another 

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/browns-seven-round-2021-nfl-mock-draft-secondary-overhaul-continues-in-cleveland/

now the conversation is... Zaven Collins-Tulsa... a NFL DE or LB ?..? (any thoughts?) Tulsa played some funky mismatches to free up Collins..but, Those won't happen at next level)

Browns won’t be taking Collins

I do see those as our 4 top needs.. I'm just waiting for the 'best player available names' to fall into place draft night..

a) I know, I don't* want Jayson Oweh from Penn St ?.. (they just got scored on again)

b) my nightmare is.. I think two of the bottom 3 amigo WR's, could be a tough hard pass..... Terrance Marshall Jr // Kadarius Toney and or Rashod Bateman ...?

I'm working on.... T.G.B.B >>> The Gumby Big Board<<<<... stay tuned.. but these 3^^ names keep getting in my way of said "need" vs "BPA" ...

I took out the ones I doubt will still be there for #26.

Noted now in red in original post.. Yep ! high chance they very well could be gone.. agree

Indy hospitals are once again set-up next week (or following) to do full medical checks on NFL draftee's... Caleb Farley just came off his 2nd back procedure..

We can throw this red ?up next to their names if anybody can help with a medical issue link...(most we won't get reads on unless a agent/player leaks it)

Edit--Adding Ballpeen's LB-Jamin Davis into future add's.. reads a good game /3 games on deck to take a peek at.. (updated board)

[SdBacker80]

I think Jaycee Horn should be higher.  Newsome as well.  I have a feeling the Browns like both.  And I also have feeling they are gone by 26.  I get the feeling the Browns want an elite corner this year.  

Rousseau is an intriguing prospect.  I’ve liked him since the start of the draft process.

Explains why he has fallen on some boards.

All up to individual team Med Staffs to clear or not...

Doubt we will gain any insight.

Thoughts on his DE counterpart at Miami, Jaelan Phillips?

falling Yep..

visits can't happen unless this was changed? https://steelersnow.com/nfl-releases-further-details-of-altered-draft-process/

Farley & 149 others will have one last medical check.. https://www.nfl.com/news/around-150-draft-prospects-to-undergo-in-person-medical-evaluations-in-indianapo

Medical concerns perhaps... Concussions.

I did slide Horn just above Moehrig..I had them as a pick'em tie..Horn blew up his proday & boards are now moving him out of our range if we stay at #26..A Corner value maybe greater than a Safety at this point ? Finished Jamin Davis tape, got Newsome on deck ? (see both as 25 to 30 draftee values... within browns reach at #26) 

And I also have feeling they are gone by 26.  I get the feeling the Browns want an elite corner this year.

 I tossed out 12-13 players off the board at the get go.. Another dozen would have to fall off my board before the Browns hit the clock at pick #26..So yes, my top 12... maybe gone?  

[Tour2ma]

Boards are in real flux ATM... but the scenario is the same. Namely only 25 players can be selected before we are OTC including...

• 5 QBs... Lawrence, Wilson, Fields, Lance and Jones.
• RB? Could be up to 2 in Harris and Etienne, but I'm not counting on either.
• 3 to 5 WRs...Chase, Waddle, Smith with a couple more possibles in R. Moore and Bateman.
• 1 TE... Pitts
• 5 or 6 OTs... Cosmi, Sewell, Darrisaw, Mayfield, Slater, Jenkins and maybe even Vera-Tucker with a couple moving inside as a Pro.

That's 14 to 19 of the 25 right there at positions of low to no, Round-One interest to us.

Defensive talent will be pushed down the board and into our arms.

A good prospect at DE and CB are both going to be there so will be interesting to see which way they go, BPA according to their board on just those two positions makes sense......unless a WR they really like is there

Q: If the Browns trade up in the draft, do you think it will be for a defensive end or a cornerback? Any chance the team stays at 26 and takes a linebacker? I’m always going for the twofer.

— @LeonardMullin10

A: Cornerback … and I think trading up for one of the top ones is a distinct possibility. I believe strongly the first pick will be a cornerback or a defensive end, as you mentioned, placing the probability at 80-90 percent.

I picked cornerback above defensive end for a trade up for a couple of reasons. I believe the talent at corner drops off at some point in the first round and the Browns won’t want to get stuck in the wrong tier, and defensive end has more options around No. 26. I also see cornerback being a more pressing need in the draft given the uncertainty surrounding Greedy Williams’ return from a shoulder injury and the likelihood the Browns will add a veteran defensive end at some point.

I’m feeling generous today, so for the double dip: Yes. In my view, linebacker and receiver are the two other possibilities at No. 26. I don’t think the Browns need a linebacker and I believe they value the position the least on defense, but I wouldn’t rule it out if they’ve fallen in love with a playmaker they believe could elevate the second level of the defense.
