Longtime ESPN and college football analyst Mel Kiper Jr. has released his first mock draft of the 2025 NFL draft season. In the mock, he has the Browns selecting the reigning Heisman winner.

In the latest mock from our Christian D’Andrea — a top-five mini-mock — he had the Browns taking Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders at quarterback. But in Mel Kiper Jr.’s first mock of the year for ESPN, he had Sanders’ teammate Travis Hunter going to Cleveland and Sanders going to the New York Giants at No. 3.

The Cleveland Browns' No. 2 overall pick has enough value that they should seriously consider trading it away.

Of their picks in the final five rounds in the draft, only James Hudson III and Tony Fields II were on the roster in 2024. Hudson was the last of those players to play with the Browns, playing until Week 4 before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury.

If the Browns don’t love a QB in the 2025 NFL draft then they shouldn’t take one. Instead, sell the farm to one of these teams!

A proposed trade would see the Cleveland Browns trade the No. 2 pick to the Minnesota Vikings for J.J. McCarthy and draft picks. The post Browns Move No. 2 Pick for Vikings QB, Draft Haul in Trade Proposal appeared first on Heavy Sports.

The Cleveland Browns have been focused on the offseason for multiple weeks now, hoping to rid the franchise of 2024's stench caused, in large part, by self-afflicted wounds. This roster is in shambles,

We are getting close to the Super Bowl which means we are only less than 100 days until the NFL draft. One of the next major events the Browns have to look forward to is the draft, where they once again have a first-round pick.
