53. Here the Cleveland Browns go in the Top-10 again, picking for the Philadelphia Eagles. The trade for the right to pick Carson Wentz suddenly looks a lot better for the Browns now. At No. 1 overall, the Browns got the best player on the board, picking Garrett, the edge-rusher. <p>That leaves the team needing a QB as they didn’t reach with that pick. So here at No. 7 overall, the Browns select Mitch Trubisky, who’s less of a reach at No. 7 than at No. 1. But when you have two first-round picks, you can afford to reach for that QB.</p> <p>Trubisky comes from the spread offense so he has a lot to learn when he gets to the NFL, But he does have a big arm, which is needed to cut through the inclement weather in the AFC North. He also has good size at 6’3″, 225 pounds and he is mobile, which will help him in that division.</p> <p>Jackson is an excellent coach for a quarterback so we can expect trubisky to learn fast. The Browns now have their franchise quarterback to go along with the best player in the draft. And this combination in the first round will take them up the standings sooner than later.</p>. QB. North Carolina. Mitch Trubisky. 7. player
