Seeing a lot of A or A- grades for the browns draft. I know it means pretty much nothing but it is kinda nice to not see D and F grades for once lol

PFF gave them an A+.

Really?  Seems like the Browns are pretty consistently declared "winners of the draft".

Well, you don't really pay attention to the NFL, so it makes sense why you would think this.

I saw that. One of four teams to get an A+, along broncos, cowboys, and cardinals. 
 

Browns were also the only team to get 3 players inside PFF’s top 25.

Interesting they got  AJ Green from Oklahoma St. He was projected to be drafted at a decent spot. Would be funny to see AJ Green intercept a pass from Joe Burrow to AJ Green.

Stefanski LOVES tight ends. They need as many as possible. He has sucked thus far though.

I see where Dane had the Browns draft class ranked #3. Baltiwhore was 1st.

Browns have brought WR Rashard Higgins back on a 1 year deal.

Good. They need WR depth and he had horrible coaching last year.

Higgins received the vet min of 1 year 910k. Turned down more money elsewhere to return to the because he loves Mayfield

Liking Stefanski more & more...apparently Wills asked Joe Thomas for permission to wear the #73. JT said "sure." Stefanski said "nope." Personal opinion but I like that Stefanski respects the former players (especially a soon to be HOFer) and it sounds like JT will be working with Wills.

Saw a stat that he is the first WR the browns drafted and signed to a second contract in their last 24 drafted WRs. Yikes

Outside of Josh Gordon, who wasn't taken in the regular draft, the next best receivers I can remember them drafting were Braylon Edwards, Kevin Johnson and Dennis Northcutt, since 1999. Unless I'm missing something, not exactly a stellar crew.

Good read on the Browns roster building philosophy...

Only one leak so far tied to Browns schedule:

Week 12 vs. JAX

Thst means not going to play DAL on Thanksgiving.
