Cleveland Browns rookie defensive tackle Michael Hall Jr is already a plus pass rusher at 20 years old, with time he should be a top NFL three technique. 

Hall now an Ohio lifer as far as football gets to stay home and play for his hometown team. His athleticism at almost 300 pounds stood out at his pro day, he can contribute as a pass rusher from day one while he learns the league and adds muscle mass to allow him to become a full time player.

The Browns needed a talented young defensive tackle and they got just that with the selection of the Streetsboro product.

Cleveland Browns general manager should be elated with the way round one of the 2024 NFL draft unfolded. Six quarterbacks, seven wide receivers, 8 offensive tackles all gone within the first thirty-two selections.

The Browns targets are all still insight. Running backs, tight ends, and wide receviers, and even a wild card like defensive tackle Johnny Newton.

Berry can trade up or down or just stay put and come out of round two with a great player.

Host Jeff Lloyd delivers his final Browns mock draft before the draft kicks off on Thursday. 

The Browns go heavy on offense right out of the gate finding help for the tight end, offensive line, and wide receiver rooms. All players that can have futures in Cleveland.

Day three brings help to the defensive line, running back, and linebacker positions. 

Late Greg Newsome rumors? at this point keeping Greg for at least one more season seems to make the most sense.

Host Jeff Lloyd gives some final thoughts on possible Cleveland Browns draft prospects. Looking at the running back position obviously Nick Chubb's heath brings up questions, but youth in the offensive line room is needed and the te group outside of David Njoku has issues.

Drafting defense may be a luxury for Cleveland but with such a heavy offensive group this year they could get a solid player drop in their laps.

In this conversation that Browns draft tight end and offensive tackle at picks 54 and 85. 

On defense Andrew berry will draft athletes, that's what he does.

Depth for new offensive line coach Andy Dickerson is going to happen.

The same names keep coming up for the Cleveland Browns at picks 54 and 85, so we put them in categories of slam dunk, I get it, and wildcards.

Nobody knows what general manager Andrew Berry is hoping to do in the draft so looking at prospects that should be available at 54 and 85 the goal was find those who make a ton of sense to draft to those who do make sense but maybe we never focused on certain positions enough.

Tight end keeps coming up as a position of need for the Browns and certainly could be the wildcard selection for either pick 54 or 85.
