One OT per first four rounds of 2020 NFL Draft for Browns to pursue
By Cory Kinnan
Cleveland in Cleveland.
Not only does Ezra Cleveland make an appearance here as a candidate the Browns could target in the second round at the offensive tackle position, but should they decide to trade down into the latter half of the first round if Thomas and Wirfs are off the board, then he could be a first rounder as well.

He fits the analytical bill as far as an athletic profile is concerned after posting an elite Relative Athletic Score in Indianapolis at the end of February. The thing with Cleveland, however: the film does not quite match up with the likes of Thomas, Wills, Wirfs, and Becton. While there is talk of him as a first round pick, buyers should beware that he could fall more into the categories with the Kolton Millers and Bruce Campbells of the world.
The problem with Cleveland, should he be the pick in Cleveland: he will be asked to start day-one along their offensive front. While the top-four tackles are day-one starters, the likes of Josh Jones and Ezra Cleveland will be forced to start day-one and may struggle early on as a result.
