Projected vs Ideal Browns 2017 Mock Draft

108th Overall: Rasul Douglas CB West Virginia

Douglas is a taller corner that the Browns don’t have on the roster and he did not perform well at the Combine, meaning he might still be there day three. The secondary needs a lot of help and it is a deep class meaning they could get solid value with multiple picks there day three.

145th Overall: Jeremy McNichols RB Boise State

Cleveland used mainly two running backs all last season. If one of them were to go down with an injury than the whole offense becomes in major trouble. McNichols has some wear on him from Boise, but he can do it all as a three down back in the NFL. He would become a nice insurance policy and change of pace back.

175th Overall: Michael Roberts TE Toledo

The production from TEs drafted over the last few years in Cleveland has produced nothing to talk about. DeValve seemed to make some minor strides over the last month of the season and Roberts provides that big blocking TE compliment. Add that he is a local guy that wants to play here and he had more TDs than any other TE in college and he could be a late day total package steal.

181st Overall: Ryan Glasgow DT Michigan

The run defense for the Browns has been pretty bad the last few years. Switching to the 4-3 should put Shelton and Bryant inside to help but they will still need some rotational guys in the mix. Glasgow is a tough nosed football player than could get the job done.

185th Overall: Connor Harris LB Lindenwood

I’m not truly sure who will be the starting MLB day one for the Browns. Connor Harris could be a late round find to add some depth to the position. He is not the most athletic player in the world and has some size limits pushing him to day three, but he had 633 career tackles at Lindenwood which is insane. You can’t teach productivity and the ability to read the plays and get to the ball.
