With the number of moves that GM Andrew Berry makes that involve multiple draft picks, it is sometimes hard to figure out how many and which selections the Cleveland Browns have for each NFL draft. As our staff debates how the Browns should use the second overall pick and we wonder which player from The National Champion Ohio State Buckeyes fans would want (figuring out where to put the “The” was tough there), Cleveland’s brass is busy setting up their offseason plan.
In August, Berry made two moves that could have impacted the Browns draft selections but Cade York didn’t stick around long enough for one of them to pay off. Then WR Amari Cooper was sent packing to add another premium selection in the third round then DE Za’Darius Smith was traded away for another fifth-rounder.
On top of those nine draft picks, according to Over the Cap, Cleveland is expected to add three compensatory picks. Two are projected in the sixth round for losing QB Joe Flacco and DT Jordan Elliott. The third is actually just to fill out the 32 selections with the Browns getting the Mr. Irrelavent selection.
That means Cleveland would have the following 12 selections (only picks in the first three rounds for teams eliminated from the playoffs have their positions locked in):
The official order and numbers for all picks, including the projected compensatory ones, will come out following the completion of the Super Bowl and the NFL completing their process. Last year, the league miscalculated the comp picks and had to make an adjustment.
