This will be the Browns’ first first-round pick since taking CB Greg Newsome in 2021, thanks to the Watson trade. Between the lack of high-end draft assets and some misses in the middle rounds from GM Berry and his scouting staff (Anthony Schwartz, David Bell, Cade York, Perrion Winfrey to name a few), the overall depth chart needs help.

The answer from our latest NFL mock draft from Christian D’Andrea — a mini mock! — is that they go with Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders. But in a new mock from PFF, Trevor Sikkema has the Browns going with Sanders’ teammate Travis Hunter at No. 2, giving the Giants a shot at Sanders at No. 3.

The 2024 season is over for the Cleveland Browns as they have solidified a shiny pick in the 2025 NFL draft.
