Below, I've clipped intel from each prospects reports on the SIS NFL Draft Site, including their overall grade, how they graded in certain critical and positional factors, as well as scouting notes.

  • Overall Grade: Each player was graded based on how the scout thought they would perform in the NFL by the beginning of their second year. Their projected role by Year 2 is shown in (parentheses) alongside their scouting grade and a brief description.
  • Critical and Positional Factors: Each factor is graded on a scale from 1-9. If a player has no below the line or above the line grades, meaning they graded out as sufficient (5) or good (6) in all factors, they won't have a callout in their profile below.

3-Round Mock Draft Logic

The Browns desperately need to make everyone forget about Deshaun Watson, and the easiest way to do that would be relocating Colorado's superstar duo to the shores of Lake Erie.

Pay no mind to Deion Sanders' new contract at Colorado that extends through the 2029 season while Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders' rookie deals, with their fifth-year options (at least in this scenario), extend through 2030.

Much will be written on Hunter and Sanders, wherever they end up, but what's been lost in the pre-draft shuffle is just how much work the Browns have done on the second tier of TE prospects, bringing in Mason Taylor, Elijah Arroyo, Harold Fannin Jr., and Terrance Ferguson for Top 30 visits.

All four tight ends are more of the "H" than the "Y" variety, meaning they're more of the receiving type than the blocking type, which makes me think David Njoku's (longterm) roster spot could be in jeopardy.

Njoku is entering the final year of his current contract.
