Draft Countdown

● By Brian Bosarge
The Cleveland Browns have a talented roster. They believe they have their franchise quarterback with Deshaun Watson. If Watson can return to his pre-suspension form, Cleveland can challenge the Cincinnati Bengals for the AFC North title. The Browns are without their first-round pick from the Watson trade. They also miss out on their second-round choice thanks to their acquisition of WR Elijah Moore. So now they must enter the 2023 NFL Draft looking for depth pieces with any selections in the top 73. I don’t expect the Browns to actually make all eight draft picks. They always seem to be wheeling and dealing. Unique to other team mock drafts at Draft Countdown (LINKS BELOW), I had my picks critiqued by an expert on the team. For the Cleveland Browns, I brought in Pete Smith of Browns Digest to tell me where I went right, wrong, or indifferent.
