Walterfootball: (Updated 12/24)
13.) Cleveland Browns: DeVante Parker, WR, Louisville
The Browns almost have to draft a receiver with one of their many early picks, don't they? Having Miles Austin start for a second year just can't happen.
17.) Cleveland Browns: Vic Beasley, DE/OLB, Clemson
The top available players don't really fit Cleveland's needs, so I'll give the Browns a pass-rusher. Jabaal Sheard is an impending free agent, and Paul Kruger is the only player who consistently gets to the quarterback.
46.) Cleveland Browns: Danny Shelton, NT, Washington
Ahtyba Rubin is an impending free agent this March. Here's a replacement if the Browns can't retain him. The Browns made Jeremy Hill look like the second coming of Walter Payton, so Danny Shelton could definitely help.
77.) Cleveland Browns: Corey Robinson, OT, South Carolina
The Browns were thinking about finding an upgrade over right tackle Mitchell Schwartz this offseason, and they would've considered Greg Robinson if he fell to them.
CBS Sports (Brugler - updated 12/28):
14.) Cleveland Browns
Dante Fowler Jr., OLB, Florida: The Browns have invested early-round picks in pass rushers in recent years, but haven't been able to consistently put pressure on the opposing backfield. With Jabaal Sheard set to hit free agency and Barkevious Mingo struggling to establish himself as a reliable rush threat, the need is there for Cleveland to address the position again and Fowler is a great fit with his relentless energy off the edge.
17.) Cleveland Browns
Malcom Brown, DT, Texas: The Cleveland run defense has been a glaring weakness all season, and a big reason for that is the lack of depth in the trenches. Brown is a versatile player who wins with quickness and power and can line up anywhere on Cleveland's three-man front.
CBS Sports (Rang - updated 12/23):
14.) Cleveland Browns
DeVante Parker, WR, Louisville: The Browns' defense and running game have been good enough to make them competitive but the lack of a top-flight receiver limits the team's upside. The club is hopeful, of course, that Josh Gordon will re-emerge as a superstar but cannot rely on him. Parker missed the first seven games of the year with a broken fifth toe in his left foot, but the 6-3, 209 pounder has starred since, demonstrating the fluidity and ballskills to project as a No. 1 target.
17.) Cleveland Browns
Andrus Peat, OT, Stanford: As the only team with two first round picks, the Browns have a lot of flexibility, including potentially making a good offensive line one of the league's elite. A star left tackle for the Cardinal, Peat is blessed with remarkable balance and agility for a man of his 6-7, 315-pound dimensions. He would provide an upgrade over Mitchell Schwartz at right tackle and could be groomed to eventually take over for All-Pro Joe Thomas.
SI.com (Updated 11/6):
15.) Cleveland Browns
Devin Funchess, WR, Michigan
The prospect of Gordon on one side, Funchess on the other and Andrew Hawkins slicing through the slot should excite Browns fans. Funchess' background as a tight end-turned-receiver also would aid Cleveland's options should Jordan Cameron's concussion issues linger. Funchess (6-5, 230) keeps progressing as a WR and has produced despite Michigan's miserable QB situation.
18.) Cleveland Browns
Andrus Peat, OT, Stanford
Right tackle Mitchell Schwartz remains the weak link on Cleveland's line -- at least when C Alex Mack is healthy. The 2014 selection of Joel Bitonio was an absolute gem for Cleveland. Bringing in the tantalizing talents of an athletic 6-7 tackle like Peat would help erase any lingering headaches.
