On this episode of the Locked On Browns Podcast we discuss the possible prospects for the Cleveland Browns Draft. The Browns Draft 2023 Draft Board includes Gervon Dexter, Florida and Jonathan Mingo, Ole Miss. Find out what other prospects the Browns have on their Big Board. This is your place for all the Browns news and rumors.

The Cleveland Browns will almost definitely make further changes in the offseason of 2023. Remember that even if there is no perceived glaring need in their roster, the Browns surely want to be as deep as possible. Of course, they can do so through the draft. Here we’ll look at which rookie prospects the Browns will draft with each of their picks in the 2023 NFL Draft.

When the Browns acquired Deshaun Watson in the 2022 offseason, it left them with eight picks for the 2023 NFL Draft. That’s a healthy number, but their first pick is not until the middle of the third round. Yes, this presents added pressure for Browns GM Andrew Berry to make the most of their picks. Still, having multiple selections in Rounds 3-5 and one pick each in Rounds 6 and 7 is not too bad at all.

Again, the most significant drawback for the Browns in the upcoming draft is their lack of a first-round pick. Recall that this happened because of their deal with the Houston Texans for Watson. With Watson expected to play the entire 2023 season, Browns fans will hope they get a good return for their draft capital. Despite this, the Browns still have enough picks to benefit from the anticipated depth of the 2023 NFL Draft class. Although they will not have early picks, they are still in a position to improve their team.

Let’s look at who the Browns will choose in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Cleveland Browns: 2023 NFL Mock Draft

3rd round 74th overall pick: DT Gervon Dexter

Dexter has a unique physical skill set with uncanny explosiveness for a 310-pounder (1.70-second 10-split). He’s wholly unrefined, though, and earned only a 65.7 overall grade in 2022.

3rd round 98th overall pick: WR Jonathan Mingo

Mingo's 6-foot-1, 220-pound frame is almost running back-like. That’s unique in this class. He showed serious improvement as a route runner this past fall with a career-high 51 catches for 861 yards.
