Browns Linked to Intriguing NFL Draft Trade Partner From NFC
Could the Dallas Cowboys offer a compelling draft weekend trade package for the Cleveland Browns? A veteran scout reveals why the two could be destined to do business ahead of the NFL Draft.
Carnell Tate? Monroe Freeling? Jeremiyah Love?
Trade back? Speculation over what the Cleveland Browns should do with the No. 6 overall pick in the NFL Draft rages on, just two weeks out from the main event.
Considering the propensity of Browns GM Andrew Berry to move up and down the board, the trading back option in particular has gained a lot of traction recently. One NFL Draft analyst believes there's an NFC team that could make sense as a trade partner for Cleveland if they do opt for such a move. ESPN's Matt Miller apparently believes the Dallas Cowboys may turn out to be the perfect trade partner for the Browns, particularly if any of the top edge rushers in this year's draft class are still on the board.
The names at the top of that list include Ohio State's Arvell Reese, Texas Tech's David Bailey or Miami's Rueben Bain Jr. , but it's unclear at this stage if Dallas prefers any one of those names over another. Still, with Cleveland picking six and players like Fernando Mendoza, Sonny Styles, Jeremiyah Love and Carnell Tate all options to land in the top five picks, there's a good chance at least one of those top rushers is available when its on the clock.
