Browns' Mock Draft: Trades, Tackles, and Weapons

0:00On April 20, NFL draft week is here, and the Cleveland Browns hold picks at number 6 and number 24 in the first round starting Thursday. But don't be shocked if they move around, as trades look likely to shake things up for more value. In this final mock, I see the Browns trading their number 6 pick, a 2026 first rounder, to the Kansas City Chiefs for their number 9. Spot plus a third and fourth rounder. They slide back just enough to grab Spencer Fano, the athletic offensive tackle from Utah, who's ready to start on the left side right away. Staying at number 24, they snag Denzel Boston, the 6th-foot 4-wide receiver from Washington, a deep threat with star potential to boost. Their passing game. Then in Round 2, chased by Sontis, the top interior lineman from Texas A&M, adds guard depth behind their plans for Elton Jenkins. After rounds feel key gaps, Max Claire, the versatile tight end from Ohio State, pairs nicely with their current options after losing David and Joku.

1:01They add corner Malik Muhammad from Texas for the secondary, safety bug Clark from TCU, with his pick 6 skills, and even quarterback Carson Beck from, Miami on day 3 for backup insurance. This mock lines up perfectly with Cleveland's knees for protection, weapons, and youth on defense, setting them up strong without reaching too far.
