Simpson Hype vs Browns Draft Strategy

On March 28th, ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky is high on Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson as

a potential Cleveland Browns pick in the 2026, NFL Draft.

He's calling Simpson a prime target for the team, sparking some real buzz.

Earlier this week on the U-Better U-Bet Podcast, NFL net words Daniel Jeremiah threw some

cold water on that hype.

When asked if anyone ranked Simpson ahead of Mendoza, Jeremiah said he hasn't heard that

from his sources, though he respects different opinions.

Fans and media are split, with outside chatter growing louder about a Brown Simpson link.

But in serious draft circles, it's not catching on yet, and that could affect how Cleveland

approaches their picks.

Jeremiah suggests that Brown's my snag Simpson cheap in the fourth round of the value lines

up, but grabbing him at number 24 or number, 39 would be a big reach.

Bottom line, the Browns front office needs to stay sharp and not chase the hype, or they

risk a draft day regret.
