The Cleveland Browns are one of the more interesting teams in the NFL draft, with many wondering how they will go about the process. Cleveland missed the playoffs a year ago, and they hold the No. 2 pick in the draft.
Many expect the Browns to take a quarterback or star Travis Hunter with the first-round draft pick. But it seems that Cleveland could be busy with some other business as the draft starts to approach.
According to NFL insider Dov Kleiman, the Browns are making cornerback Greg Newsome and defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo available via trade. Many teams pull off draft day deals, and it seems that the Browns could be very active.
Last season, Newsome played in 13 games for the Browns, posting one interception and 27 total tackles. The cornerback has spent his entire career with Cleveland, but the team may be looking for a change in the secondary.
As for Okoronkwo, he played in 16 games for Cleveland last season. The defensive end posted three sacks and 23 total tackles, making his presence known along the defensive line.
