New Era reveals the 2020 NFL Draft hat for the Browns

Could this be a peek into the new uniforms?

New Era revealed the 2020 edition of the venerable NFL Draft hat for all 32 NFL teams. The caps are an annual rite of passage, the first bit of association a player gets with the team after he’s drafted and crosses the stage to greet commissioner Roger Goodell or gets the congratulatory phone call.

This year’s edition for the Browns rolls with the Brownie the Elf mascot prominent on a black background. A “Browns” on the side written in neon light-like orange font jumps out. It’s a fitted cap with a solid back emblazoned with an orange NFL shield.

New Era reveals Broncos’ 2020 NFL draft cap

New Era has revealed draft hats for all 32 NFL teams.

New Era’s website has listed official draft caps for all 32 NFL teams, including the Denver Broncos. The website says the designs were “inspired by the iconic neon signs of Las Vegas,” the city that was scheduled to host this year’s draft.

Unfortunately, the draft won’t be held in Vegas and there won’t be any fans in attendance due to COVID-19. The draft is expected to be held in a studio setting at a to-be-determined location.

Denver will have 10 picks to use in this year’s draft, including the 15th overall pick in the first round. Many mock drafts have the Broncos selecting a wide receiver with their first pick. If that’s the route Denver wants to go, the team might have to trade up.

In Todd McShay’s latest mock draft for ESPN, star receivers Jerry Jeudy (No. 11), CeeDee Lamb (No. 12) and Henry Ruggs III (No. 13) are all off the board before the Broncos go on the clock.

Look: Rams’ 2020 draft hat features new L.A. logo

The Rams’ new logo is featured on the 2020 draft hats, but the ram head is not.

The 2020 NFL Draft won’t be held under the bright lights of Las Vegas, but that won’t stop New Era from releasing its annual line of hats to commemorate the big event. The hats hit retailers on Tuesday, popping up on New Era’s website and on the NFL’s shop.

Rams fans already caught a glimpse of their team’s draft hat when it leaked the new logo a few weeks back, but the official cap is better than the one that popped up on Twitter.

Here’s a look at the Rams’ draft hats for 2020, which come in a variety of styles and fits.

Here’s a closer look at the two different styles, one of which just has the L.A. logo while the other reads “Los Angeles Football” across the front panel.

It’s pretty clear which hat will be preferred by fans, though neither are expected to be flying off the shelves after seeing the response to the team’s new logo.

The hat on the left is certainly better than the one that leaked, and is a better representation of the logo. The blue glow around it actually looks pretty cool, too.

The hat on the right, though, misses the mark. It’s too crowded and the coloring does nothing for the logo. The lack of blue makes it look even more generic than it already is.

Unfortunately, there isn’t a hat that features the redesigned ram head, which most fans seem to prefer over the L.A. mark.

All of the Rams’ draft hats can be found on New Era’s site.
