We have finally made it to draft week. With the NFL draft just a few days away, there is a lot of hurry-up and wait going on around the Cleveland Browns:
- Baker Mayfield trade still looms, Carolina not moving before the draft
- Jadeveon Clowney still awaiting a decision despite social media hints
- Jarvis Landry has visited New Orleans but could return to Cleveland
Oh yeah, and the team has draft picks to think about as well.
Of the above decisions, only that of Clowney could have a great impact on the team’s draft. Mayfield is going to be off the team at some point and Landry would be a stop-gap measure for a year or two at best.
For Monday’s mock draft we will assume Clowney’s return but that the team is focused on becoming the most explosive version it can be.
Since it is draft week, today we will bring you two different mock drafts using two different simulators: Pro Football Network and Pro Football Focus. While simulators are far from perfect, they help us try to get a glimpse into what a full mock draft could look like for the team.
Each round will have draft picks from both simulators with the full draft from each separated out at the end.
