The Cleveland Browns may be kicking themselves for not taking QB Carson Wentz last year. But there is no one like Wentz in this draft so now is not the time to make up for it. If they did, the Browns would kick themselves for not taking Jonathan Allen at No. 1 overall. I originally thought that Myles Garrett was no doubt the best prospect in the draft this year. But as I continue to watch Allen play, I now see that it depends on what you want. He as an interior D-line prospect is the same thing Garrett is as an edge rusher prospect. As a matter of fact, he may be better because he’s better against the run than Garrette is. Interior defensive lineman are actually more valuable to build around than other defenders. The great ones take double and triple-teams away from edge rushers and free up linebackers. That’s what guys like Mean Joe Green, Warren Sapp, and Richard Seymour did for their defenses. So here at No. 1 overall in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Browns go with Jonathan Allen. He will go to Cleveland and change the defense right away, sending the Browns in the right direction.. DE. Alabama. Jonathan Allen. 1. player. 53
