With the 2013 Draft fast approaching, it's time to take a look at the Browns options for this year. We have a new, untested regime in place, so I'll comment on who we should take at No. 6, as well as speculate who we might take.
In my opinion, the change of the Offense to a more vertical, downfield attacking Offense will be a big improvement. I expect much more positive results even with just our existing roster, even if we don't come out of the draft with any major additions on Offense. I'm not so keen on the switch to a 3-4 Defense, however. The strength of the Browns Defense is in it's Interior Linemen, positions that are generally reduced in number and importance in a 3-4. Some of the additions in Free Agency are going to help quite a bit, but probably not be a complete solution on the defensive side of the ball.
The pre-Draft Mocks have varied quite a bit over time. The early ones I saw had Cleveland taking Damontre Moore, DE Texas A&M or Bjoern Werner, DE Florida St. Then, after the hiring of a 3-4 Defensive Co-ordinator, Dion Jordan, LB Oregon and Jarvis Jones, LB Georgia started getting some love. Lately, they've coalesced around CB Dee Milliner of Alabama. Of course, some chatter has the Browns reaching for a Quarterback at 6.
