Browns NFL Draft profile: QB Joe Fagnano, deep sleeper option

The Cleveland Browns currently have three quarterbacks on the roster. Is this what the team will be doing going forward? Despite being a third-round draft pick last year, Dillon Gabriel might be staring down at being QB3. The odds-on favorites are veteran Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders being named the starter in Week 1. RELATED: […]

NFL draft: Which OT is the best prospect for the Browns?

With substantial draft capital in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns are likely to spend at least one, if not multiple, picks addressing issues along the offensive line. With two picks in the first round, at least one pick should be used on an offensive tackle. It is important to select someone who fits […]

NFL Draft Profile: FB/WR Eli Heidenreich, Navy

Once upon a time, the NFL had an affinity for the fullback position. A look at the list of players in the Pro Football Hall of Fame who were listed as fullbacks in their playing days includes Jim Brown, Marion Motley, Larry Csonka, and Bronko Nagurski.  Astute readers will notice those players have not played […]

NFL Draft Profile: WR Jordyn Tyson, Arizona State

The Cleveland Browns had one of the league’s worst quarterback rooms in 2025 as they rotated through Joe Flacco, Dillon Gabriel, and Shedeur Sanders in the starting role. Of course, the group received little help from the wide receivers, which only helped to make the situation worse. Veteran Jerry Jeudy “led” the position group with […]

Browns: Can’t tell the players without a program

The Cleveland Browns have been busy this offseason as the team picks through the rubble of just eight wins in the past two seasons. A new coaching staff, led by head coach Todd Monken, is working to get rid of the ugly brand of football that has been seen far too often from the guys […]

Saturday Dawg Chow (4/18): Tick tock. Tick tock. The NFL Draft approaches.

Do you hear that? It is the sound of the clock ticking down to the 2026 NFL Draft. We are now just five days away from the biggest offseason event on the NFL calendar, which means we are also deep, deep into speculation and smoke-screen season. No one — not NFL media members, not “insiders” […]

NFL draft QB Ty Simpson rumor could involve a Browns trade

There is a little saying in sports media these days that goes something like “everything that happens in (insert your sport) probably relates to the team you cover.” While that is not always true, the Cleveland Browns having two first-round picks, needs at three vital positions on offense, and questions about how the team plans […]

For Browns, 2026 NFL draft class full of blessings, curses

The arguments about what the Cleveland Browns should do in the NFL draft are almost over. Just six days until the first round of the 2026 NFL draft kicks off with the Browns holding two selections in the first round. At this point, most believe that Cleveland GM Andrew Berry will decide between trading down, […]

Browns NFL draft profile: WR Brenen Thompson

What a horrible year for the Cleveland Browns in 2025 in respect to their receiver room. Ranked what? #32? Out of 32 teams? Goodness. Even their lead receiver, Jerry Jeudy, had an off year with half the production he had the year before when he was named to his first Pro Bowl. A subsequent terrific […]

Browns NFL draft: Carnell Tate or bust is busted thinking

With the NFL Draft right around the corner, teams are finalizing their draft boards and making their plans. As for the Cleveland Browns, there is a chance that the team could stay pat at #6 or trade down and gain more draft capital. Let’s say the Browns choose to stay at #6, many believe that […]

NFL Draft Profile: CB Avieon Terrell, Clemson

The Cleveland Browns had a solid plan for the cornerback position when training camp opened in the summer of 2025. Denzel Ward was the clear No. 1 cornerback, with Greg Newsome II holding down the other starter’s spot. Martin Emerson Jr., entering the final year of his rookie contract, was the clear third cornerback. But […]

The Cleveland Browns and the origins of the NFL Draft: Part 1

The Cleveland Browns began in 1946 in an NFL-rival league called the “All America Football Conference” (AAFC). For several years, numerous wealthy men wanted to own their NFL club, but were rebuffed by the league, which told them that they weren’t going to offer any expansion teams. At the time, the NFL was just 10 […]

On the same day, 3 long-term NFL draft experts predict similar Browns trade down

We are officially in NFL draft smokescreen time. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t rumors that will be based in reality, but with just over a week to go until the 2026 NFL draft, everyone has an agenda. Sometimes those agendas come from agents, sometimes from coaches, sometimes for teams not even involved in rumors, […]

Browns 2026 draft: Small-school wide receiver prospects

The Cleveland Browns had one of the worst receiver groups last year. Yeah, to the tune of being ranked #32. Out of 32 teams. Needless to say, that’s dead last.   Jerry Jeudy had an off year and gained half of what he did the previous season, when he went to his first Pro Bowl. […]

NFL Draft Profile: CB Jermod McCoy, Tennessee

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry made a move to improve the cornerback position five weeks into the 2025 season. The Browns acquired fifth-year cornerback Tyson Campbell from the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for cornerback Greg Newsome II, the club’s first-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft.  It was an exchange of players who were […]
