Browns Draft Offensive Linemen, Shake Up Center Battle

0:00On April 25th, the Cleveland Browns kept the momentum rolling on day 3 of the 2026 NFL draft, snagging three key offensive lineman too, beef up their front. General manager Andrew Berry stayed aggressive with trades right up to the 5th round, giving head coach Todd Monkin fresh talent to mold on offense. They added offensive tackle Spencer Fano, who showed center snaps at the combine, versatile tackle Austin Barber, who can flip between sides, and straight up center Parker Brailsford. Barber's got scouts buzzing for his flexibility, which could shake up the line of burly. Fans and analysts are eyeing the center spot as a real battleground now, with options like Elton Jenkins, Luke Weibler, Steven Jenkins, the new guy, Brailsford, Fano stepping in, and Kingsley Eglikun in the mix. It's got that competitive edge heading into camp. Brailsford looks like the front runner for now, but nothing's locked. Fano's versatility in the vets could flip the script during training battles.
