CLEVELAND — The NFL Combine starts on Friday and for the first time in many years the Cleveland Browns won't be looking for a quarterback.

ESPN Draft Analysis Todd McShay said the Browns will focus on other positions to put weapons around Baker Mayfield.

"There won't be much emphasis on bringing other quarterbacks back to your facility," McShay said.

The Browns need to go after defensive line help and offensive tackles, according to McShay.

"I think for an offensive tackle Andre Dillard from Washington State is a guy who I think is the best pure left tackle in this class based on athleticism, " McShay said.

Multiple people have talked about how the Browns should go for a bigger-framed wide receiver to play opposite of Jarvis Landry.

"It would be good to have a luxury like that," McShay said. "There are a lot of big receivers like that this year. N'Keal Harry from Arizona State is a 6-foot-4-inch receiver, Stanford's J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is a 6-foot-4-inch receiver, we're going to get to see these guys this week at the Combine."

Fans will have a different tune this draft after how successful general manager John Dorsey was with drafting last year.

"Fans should feel great. He's one for one. He nailed the first pick after taking a chance on Baker Mayfield," McShay said.
