AFC North Not Getting Easier

Pittsburgh gets a nice tight end prospect that could really help them out. Cincinnati stocks up on defense with a nice DE/pass rusher and solid ILB. Baltimore takes an explosive and polished WR and a formidable pass-rushing DE. On the surface, everyone in the AFC North is having a good draft, getting good players that address needs. The Browns are right there too, unfortunately we have so many needs....

I was about to write how there appeared to be a good number of nice prospects that could drop into the third round, but no sooner did the thought cross my head than did Khalif Barnes and Dan Cody both go off the board. But it's still true -- there are good players still to be had. And for the Browns to gain on their AFC North competition Savage will have to come out of rounds 3-7 with a few good football players. I like his odds in the third, and think they'll find some decent front-seven help on Sunday. The hits are gonna have to keep on coming for the Browns to make a real big leap.
