This week, it was reported that Kevin Stefanski may be considering adding an air raid offensive mind. to his staff this offseason He combines his running game with a more vertical passing threat. Owner Jimmy Haslam is a University of Tennessee alum who has watched a ton of air raid, and one has to think he’ll have a word if Biletnikoff winner Jalin Hyatt is on the board.

Round 3, Pick 99: Luke Wypler (C, Ohio State)

Right tackle Jack Conklin was signed. Now it is possible to question whether there is money for center Ethan Pocic. Even though he has been a top-five player at his position, The Browns may be able to add a skilled center to their roster, as Nick Harris is entering his contract season after a serious injury.

Luke Wypler would not have to travel far, and his athleticism and mobility make him a significant fit in Stefanski’s wide zone offense. They move in the same direction with the compensatory pick Kwesi Afo-Mensah earned by becoming the general manger of the Minnesota Vikings.

Round 4, Pick 110 – Mazi Smith, DT Michigan

The Browns should wait until the fourth round so that they can address the defensive tackle position in their free agency. This they will. The Browns land Mazi Smith, an athletic freak from the University of Michigan in the fourth round.

He isn’t the most sophisticated player. this defensive tackle class, but Smith’s ability to win with power, explosiveness, and twitch will get him drafted highly regardless. He does have an off-field dust-upBut, that could lead to him falling in the draft.

Round 4, Pick 131: Derick Hall, EDGE, Auburn

Alex Wright, Isaiah Thomas and Chase Winovich were the Browns’ two most recent defensive ends drafted last year. However, Stephen Weatherly, Chase Winovich, Jadeveon, and Chase Clowney are all free to sign, so they will have to add one more in the NFL Draft or the open market for 2023.

The Browns now have their second fourth-round pick and they turn to the SEC for Derick Hall, a powerful and explosive player. Although he isn’t the most agile or flexible pass rusher in the league, Hall has heavy hands and can push pockets into the laps opposing quarterbacks.

Round 5, Pick 147: Jammie Robinson, S, Florida State

John Johnson III cannot be saved at this time and will likely be released this offseason. Ronnie Harrison is also available as a free agent. Grant Delpit will be the last one to return.

Jammie Robinson is the perfect fit for the Browns as a Florida State safety. He can play in the box and over the top or in the slot. Robinson is a tough dog, and he will be criticized for his size.

Round 5, Pick 152: Dorian Williams, LB, Tulane

The Browns linebacker room may not be in the best of health as it appears. Jeremiah Owusu–Koramoah won’t be leaving, Tony Fields II has proven that he can handle base defense responsibilities, and Jordan Kunaszyk, a restricted-free agent, can add depth to the Browns.

However, they do have three players who started games at MIKE, and all are ready to go on the open market. This is a room that can be run in Cleveland if the Browns re-sign only one of Sione Takitaki or Anthony Walker Jr.

The Browns have a plan for contingency beyond 2023 by adding Dorian Williams, a young throwback player.

Round 6, Pick 186: Ainias Smith, WR, Texas A&M

Jaelon darden is the potential guy to lead the field horizontally as well vertically. After being claimed by Browns, Darden hasn’t been active in three weeks. In case Darden doesn’t turn out, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers add an experienced and versatile player.

While Ainias Smith suffered a season-ending injury in 2022 for the Texas A&M Aggies, there is no doubting his ability. He is a great wide receiver as well as a running back. He can run a decent route tree and shows a lot of explosiveness after the catch.

The Browns are looking to incorporate the air raid into their roster and adding another fast playmaker after Hyatt will only help.

Round 7, Pick 227: DeMarcco Hellams, S, Alabama

Finally, in the seventh round, Browns add another safety, as they are set to lose two of their starters this offseason. The hard-hitting, downhill force DeMarcco Hellams can fill Harrison’s role in DIME packages, and provide depth for the Browns behind their starters.

He had 95 total tackles and three tackles for losses.
