The Browns have clear needs in this year’s draft and if they fill them, their disappointing 8-9 season can become a distant memory. Free agency is nice, but the heart and soul of this team gets built in the draft. There’s a clear path forward for this team to get right. Our writers are doing weekly Browns mocks between now and the draft. Doug Lesmerises’ first draft is here. It’s my turn today and every Wednesday. The idea is to track how our thinking evolves between now and the end of April. What happens at the NFL combine, what the Browns do in free agency, the general rumors of players rising and falling in the eyes of draft evaluators, and our own changes in thinking will affect our mock drafts.
