Browns' Tyson Rising, Draft Day Drama

0:00On April 18th, the Cleveland Browns are finally set to end their drive spill on wide receivers in the first or second round. Since General Manager Andrew Berry took over in 2020, they haven't grabbed one that high, but next week's 2026 NFL Draft On Day. One should change that. Berry had to get creative after trading three first round picks for Dishon Watson back in 2022. He brought in vets like Amari Cooper and Jerry Judy through trades, plus some mid-round draft picks, but the results have been up and down. Last season made the need crystal clear. And this draft class packs top talent like Ohio State's Carnotate, USC's McCuylim and Arizona State's. Jordan Tyson. Tyson's got a cool local tie, his brother plays for the Cavaliers, and the Browns met with him early on. But Tyson's injury history with his hamstring, knee, and collarbone had folks worried he'd slide. That changed at his private pro day in Tempe on Friday, where over 20 teams, including Cleveland, saw his quickness, routes, and hands shine.

1:03Now he's projected as a top 16 pick, maybe even higher. With Tyson rising fast, the Browns at pick number six might trade down for more picks or prospects, grabbing an offensive tackle later too. Berries are already hinting at options like Notre Dame's Jeremiah Love, while downplaying the trade talk, keeping everyone guessing as draft-day nears.
