Eric Edholm's Commentary
This is a coup for the Browns, nabbing a player whom many believed would've been gone before now. Newsome is a bulldog-caliber competitor, and a tremendous athlete. That secondary could be really strong now with Denzel Ward, Newsome, Grant Delpit and Greedy Williams all young and highly talented. Wanna stop the Bills and Chiefs? Beef up that secondary.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
The hometown crowd gets a thrill with GM Andrew Berry swinging a move up to this spot. And the fall ends for Owusu-Koramoah, who was roundly mocked in Round 1. We’re not his biggest fan, but boy, this feels like excellent value for a hard-hitting, versatile playmaker with great coverage ability. This is the kind of player you need when it’s time to defend vs. special quarterbacks like Lamar Jackson.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Perhaps the fastest man in the draft, Schwartz was robbed of a chance to make a run at the NFL combine 40 record. He ran a 4.25 at his pro day, which is as fast as it sounds, but Schwartz was more urban legend in college than reliable weapon. We considered him for our top 100 prospects list, but ultimately his body of work was just a little too lean. Injuries held him back, as did a lack of development as a well-rounded receiver. Right now he’s a big-play specialist with home-run ability who might never be a full-time contributor.
