Kyle Louis: Browns' Day 2 Draft Target for Stacked Defense

0:00On April 17, Cleveland Browns got a stack defense heading into next season, way stronger than their offense. They need more depth at corner and players who snag turnovers, so eyes are on Pittsburgh linebacker Kyle Lewis as a Day 2 draft target. Experts like ESPN's Matt Bowen call him the top coverage guy in his class. Louis brings serious heat with six interceptions and seven pass breakups over his last two college seasons, plus 182 tackles and 24 for loss. In zone or man, he closes fast, reads play sharp, and hunts the ball like a predator. Fans and analysts love his fluidity and speed, but his size at six feet and 220 pounds raises flags against the run. He might struggle shedding blocks, so coaches got to scheme him right as a hybrid weapon. Browns could slot him as a third safety or big nickel next to Grand Delpid and others, maximizing his blitz and coverage skills on passing downs. Mod Drouse have him going around pick 39, 70, or even a still at 107.
