Cleveland Browns NFL draft picks 2024: Round-by-round selections

The Cleveland Browns do not have much ammunition in the 2024 NFL draft, hosted in downtown Detroit, April 25-27, due to aggressive trades in recent years. They will look to add cheap talent to the expensive roster.

The Browns finished 11-6 last season to earn a wild-card spot in the AFC playoffs, but were bounced in the first round. Cleveland had the NFL's best defense last season and got a surprising season from backup quarterback Joe Flacco, who took over for an injured Deshaun Watson and provided a spark in the passing game.

Watson, whose trade is partially responsible for the lack of draft picks, will be the starter in 2024 looking to shake off what's been a rough start to his Browns career.

Here is a look at the Browns' picks in their 2024 NFL draft.
