Daily Dawg Tags: A big day for Browns on social media
By Thomas Moore
The Cleveland Browns may not be making any news on the field at the moment, but a couple of their players are staying busy on social media.
It was quite a day on Monday for current – and possibly soon to be former – Cleveland Browns players.
First off, we had the always entertaining Joe Thomas reacting to the story of a passenger being forcibly removed from an overbooked United Airlines flight:
Then we had Josh Gordon and his cryptic Tweets followed by his (since deleted) Snapchat posts trashing some Browns-themed items:

Even when there is nothing going on, the Browns find new ways to be entertaining.

NFL news:

Marshawn Lynch-Raiders deal likely not worth the trouble (Sporting News):

So if Lynch officially files for and is granted reinstatement by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, the 30-year-old running back will become a member of the Seahawks’ roster, as if he never left."
Predicting the teams that will – and won’t – draft a QB (ESPN):
"Is this the year the Kansas City Chiefs draft Alex Smith’s heir? The question isn’t when will the Cleveland Browns select a quarterback, but with which pick will it happen? Will the Washington Redskins draft a long-term project to develop behind Kirk Cousins? The quarterback needs for each team vary, which is why we leaned on NFL Nation reporters to predict whether the teams they cover would spend a pick — in any round in this month’s draft — on the most important position on the field."
