With both the Shrine Bowl and the Senior Bowl played last week, I thought I would start messing around with some mock draft simulators. In the past, I usually start looking at mock drafts in November. Now I wait until free agency as started. The Browns big needs in this year’s draft are defensive line, wide receiver and safety. Throw in possibly a running back, offensive tackle and tight end and with eight picks, GM Andrew Berry might be able to fill in some needs. Here goes.
Pick 42, Mazi Smith, DT, Michigan.
Pick 98, Nick Herbig, DE, Wisconsin.
Pick 111, Roschon Johnson, RB, Texas.
Pick 126, Tyler Scott, WR, Cincinnati.
Pick 142, Quindell Johnson, S, Memphis.
Pick 144, Jaelyn Duncan, OT, Maryland.
Pick 190, Luke Schoonmaker, TE, Michigan.
Pick 237, Kahlef Hailassie, CB, Western Kentucky.
Like I said, this is a way too early mock draft and I think I covered all the Brown’s needs. Berry may surprise everyone and make a big splash in free agency, especially at defensive tackle. He’s been pretty damn good at trading for players, so he could make a deal for a wide receiver. The free agent wide receiver market is average at best as are the players in the draft. Let me know what you think. Stay safe and Go Browns.
