Should the Browns pick Leonard Fournette? Vote
It’s been 22 years since a running back was taken with the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft. Penn Sate’s Ki-Jana Carter went to the Cincinnati Bengals in 1995 and has since been perhaps a cautionary tale after suffering an ACL tear before he played his first game. But Bengals' fans wouldn’t have felt any better bringing in a quarterback who never developed or a pass rusher such as Barkevious Mingo, who flamed out after the Browns used the No. 6 pick on him in 2013. Even though the Browns have other needs, this opportunity may not come around for another decade or so. Haven't they been looking for the next Jim Brown?
