Overview
- ESPN Cleveland’s Tony Grossi reports there is a greater chance Cleveland drafts Penn State’s Drew Allar than Alabama’s Ty Simpson, likely as a late-round flyer.
- Drew Allar said his informal Combine meeting with the Browns went well after an encouraging throwing session four months removed from ankle surgery.
- GM Andrew Berry said the team will be more aggressive than last year in seeking a quarterback while remaining targeted and opportunistic.
- Todd McShay advised against Cleveland using the No. 6 pick on Simpson, citing roster fit concerns despite viewing him as legitimate first-round talent.
- Other reporting notes extensive Browns homework on Simpson, while 10 total picks — including Nos. 6 and 24 — give flexibility to add a developmental passer later in the draft.
