The Opening Drive 11/1: Let's Do a Bye Week Mock Draft

No better time for projecting some talent into this offense than right now.

Welcome to the weekend, my people. The Browns are off tomorrow, but that doesn’t mean we don’t get a quality weekend of football. As usual we will be locked into the college slate of games and with that I have started to get more serious about how the Browns draft can shape up. We know the two first round picks are important but the set behind those picks will also be quite important.

The offense has to get rectified and injected with as much young talent as possible and they have the assets to do that. I’m not saying every pick will go that direction, but most of them will and we will go that route here today as well.

Let’s get it rolling.

I do love me some mock drafting. Reminder, most boards have not updated both the Browns team needs and have not updated the middle portions of the boards to reflect the most accurate Top-100. Those will come in time. For now, we do the best with what we can. Let’s get to the mock which includes a quarterback at the very top.
