Saturday Dawg Chow (4/18): Tick tock. Tick tock. The NFL Draft approaches.

Do you hear that? It is the sound of the clock ticking down to the 2026 NFL Draft. We are now just five days away from the biggest offseason event on the NFL calendar, which means we are also deep, deep into speculation and smoke-screen season. No one — not NFL media members, not “insiders” […]

NFL draft QB Ty Simpson rumor could involve a Browns trade

There is a little saying in sports media these days that goes something like “everything that happens in (insert your sport) probably relates to the team you cover.” While that is not always true, the Cleveland Browns having two first-round picks, needs at three vital positions on offense, and questions about how the team plans […]

For Browns, 2026 NFL draft class full of blessings, curses

The arguments about what the Cleveland Browns should do in the NFL draft are almost over.

Browns NFL draft profile: WR Brenen Thompson

What a horrible year for the Cleveland Browns in 2025 in respect to their receiver room. Ranked what? #32? Out of 32 teams? Goodness. Even their lead receiver, Jerry Jeudy, had an off year with half the production he had the year before when he was named to his first Pro Bowl. A subsequent terrific […]

Browns NFL draft: Carnell Tate or bust is busted thinking

With the NFL Draft right around the corner, teams are finalizing their draft boards and making their plans. As for the Cleveland Browns, there is a chance that the team could stay pat at #6 or trade down and gain more draft capital. Let’s say the Browns choose to stay at #6, many believe that […]

NFL Draft Profile: CB Avieon Terrell, Clemson

The Cleveland Browns had a solid plan for the cornerback position when training camp opened in the summer of 2025. Denzel Ward was the clear No. 1 cornerback, with Greg Newsome II holding down the other starter’s spot. Martin Emerson Jr., entering the final year of his rookie contract, was the clear third cornerback. But […]

The Cleveland Browns and the origins of the NFL Draft: Part 1

The Cleveland Browns began in 1946 in an NFL-rival league called the “All America Football Conference” (AAFC). For several years, numerous wealthy men wanted to own their NFL club, but were rebuffed by the league, which told them that they weren’t going to offer any expansion teams. At the time, the NFL was just 10 […]

On the same day, 3 long-term NFL draft experts predict similar Browns trade down

We are officially in NFL draft smokescreen time. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t rumors that will be based in reality, but with just over a week to go until the 2026 NFL draft, everyone has an agenda. Sometimes those agendas come from agents, sometimes from coaches, sometimes for teams not even involved in rumors, […]

Browns 2026 draft: Small-school wide receiver prospects

The Cleveland Browns had one of the worst receiver groups last year. Yeah, to the tune of being ranked #32. Out of 32 teams. Needless to say, that’s dead last.   Jerry Jeudy had an off year and gained half of what he did the previous season, when he went to his first Pro Bowl. […]

NFL Draft Profile: CB Jermod McCoy, Tennessee

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry made a move to improve the cornerback position five weeks into the 2025 season. The Browns acquired fifth-year cornerback Tyson Campbell from the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for cornerback Greg Newsome II, the club’s first-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft.  It was an exchange of players who were […]

Browns HC Todd Monken could unlock TE Harold Fannin after great rookie season

If you are looking for positives surrounding the Cleveland Browns offense, you can start with tight end Harold Fannin. Fannin, whom the team selected in the third round of last year’s NFL draft, showed legit promise as a reliable pass-catching target. New head coach Todd Monken has worked with tight ends well, going back to […]

Browns fans: Why should the Browns trade down from the 6th pick? Why not?

The Cleveland Browns find themselves in a similar position to the 2025 NFL Draft with an early pick in the first round. Many believe the team might take a similar approach with this year’s first-round pick, potentially trading down to a later spot in the first round. General manager Andrew Berry has been comfortable with […]

Browns Draft Profile: OG Keylan Rutledge

The Cleveland Browns had one of the league’s worst offensive lines last year, ranked #31. During the free agency period, GM Andrew Berry had a goal to improve this group and signed several capable players to come in and either start or provide quality depth. Every offensive line group needs about 10 players on the […]
