Browns Draft: Filling Holes, Adding Talent

0:00It's April 24th, NFL News Today starts now, AI-powered and game ready. I'm Cory with the story. Cleveland Brown stuck to the plan in round 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft, trading back from the 6th spot to 9th and snagging Utah. Offensive tackle, Spencer Fano, right away. They kept sliding, picking Texas A&M wide receiver KC Concepcion at 24th overall, filling two big holes up front and in the passing game. That trade down netted them an extra third-rounder and a fifth-round pick, giving the squad more ammo for the weekend. Both rookies walk into training camp competing for starting gigs, which is exactly what the front office wanted, after a rough offensive year. Fans and analysts are buzzing about how these moves shore up the line and add speed outside. But the real talk now is day 2, needs like center if. They shift Elton Jenkins inside. These spots could open up too, with past rush still a priority after that free agency fumble on AJ Epinisa.

1:01Looking ahead to rounds 2 and 3, the Browns hole picks at 39th, 70th and 74th overall, prime spots loaded with fallen. First round talents. Names like Iowa's Logan Jones at center, Clemson's TJ Parker for edge rush, or even more receivers like Washington's Denzel Boston, could drop right into their lap. With talent overflowing the board and last year's day, two halls still fresh. Cleveland's prime to stack the roster deep in turn heads come fall.
