ORLANDO — Many expect the Browns to select their quarterback of the future with the first overall pick in the NFL Draft later this month. While the Browns have yet to unveil their plans at the top of the draft, the team has been abundantly clear on one point— whether it’s Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, Josh Rosen or Josh Allen, whoever that quarterback is will sit behind next season.
Because of that, it’s critical Cleveland — owners of two picks in the top five for the first time since the Redskins did so in 2000 — add another future impact player who can contribute sooner than later.
