Cleveland Browns Mock Draft: Young playmakers aplenty
By Sam Penix
Okonkwo is listed as a tight end, but he doesn’t really have a true position. He’s 6-2 238 pounds which is almost unheard of for a TE, but he moves differently than any other player at the position. His 4.52 40-yard dash and 35.5-inch vertical match up with his tape, which also shows a player with supreme agility and quickness. He’s a move piece that Kevin Stefanski would be excited to involve in unique and creative ways, and someone that defenses have to worry about defending.
Paschal looks like the prototype the Browns seem to want playing opposite Myles Garrett. He’s 6-2 268 pounds with good straight-line speed and elite explosiveness. He’s a power EDGE who logged snaps inside at Kentucky and is a player to keep an eye on for the Browns on Day 2.
Will any of these players be available at the spots they were picked in this mock? Probably not. Does that make mock drafts any less fun? No, no it does not.
This class gives the Browns two interesting skill players on offense, as well as improved depth and versatility on defense, plus an extra fourth-rounder in 2023. That’s quite the haul for a team without a first-round pick. The floor is yours, Andrew Berry.
