The Cleveland Browns are situated well for the 2017 NFL Draft. They have two picks in the Top-10 and they already seem to know who they want.
In late November, Jason La Canfora of CBSSports reported that the Cleveland Browns love QB Mitch Trubisky. Then just last week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that the Browns have an astronomical grade on EDGE Myles Garrett.
So which one is correct?
They are both reputable NFL reporters that usually have it right when reporting. There is the possibility of Browns executives playing games with the media to fool other NFL teams. But at No. 1 overall, it isn’t necessary to play these games in the media.
As a matter of fact, it looks like they’re going to have two picks in the Top-10 of the 2017 NFL Draft. So the answer to the question is that both reporters could actually be correct. The Browns could end up with the best prospect and a franchise QB in the same round.
The Browns have multiple picks in the second round including the first pick in that round. So the team has a chance to put some building blocks together and get going in the right direction. According to the reports, this is the base of the Browns’ rebuild.
