The Cleveland Browns possess the second total decide within the 2025 NFL Draft. They’re possible hoping that Miami’s Cam Ward, the “consensus” No. 1 quarterback on this 12 months’s class, stays out there after the Tennessee Titans make their choice with the primary total decide.
Nonetheless, Browns insider Tony Grossi of ESPN Cleveland/The Land on Demand and NFL reporter Darryl Slater of NJ Advance Media for NJ.com imagine the Titans will take Ward with the draft’s prime decide. Thus, Grossi predicted in his newest mock draft that the Browns will commerce their No. 2 choice to the New York Giants for decide No. 3 and selection No. 65 this 12 months, together with a 2026 third-round decide.
Grossi thinks this might end result within the Giants taking Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders at No. 2 and the Browns touchdown Ole Miss signal-caller Jaxson Dart with the third decide.
Following the NFL Scouting Mix, some speculated that the Browns may choose Sanders with the second decide and that the Giants would “attain” for Dart at No. 3. Sanders has been linked with the Giants since a minimum of December. Nonetheless, numerous reports revealed that some groups do not view him as a first-round prospect after he allegedly “hit the improper notes in mix interviews.”
Maybe there’s cause to imagine the Browns are a kind of golf equipment.
As of Thursday afternoon, the Giants and Browns continued to be talked about as potential landing spots for veteran quarterbacks resembling Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson and Kirk Cousins, though the Atlanta Falcons appear severe about not releasing Cousins anytime quickly. Grossi wrote that “signing both Cousins or Wilson could be the clearest sign but of the Browns taking a place participant aside from quarterback with their first decide,” and ESPN’s Field Yates thinks Cleveland may draft Colorado broad receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter over each Sanders and Dart.
Apparently, Dart’s supposed rise in draft inventory has coincided with Sanders sliding down the board in mock drafts. It is tough to know what to imagine through the draft course of’s “smokescreen season,” however it’s price noting that NFL insider Connor Hughes of SNY shared on March 5 that a minimum of “one workforce supply” had Dart ranked forward of Sanders following the mix.
It stays to be seen if the Browns or Giants can be daring sufficient to pick Dart over Sanders with the second decide within the draft.
