BALLER MOVE: Target ~105
CURRENT ADP: ~120
ANALYSIS: Cleveland appeared to have an abundance of options at the wide receiver position earlier in the offseason. But Josh Gordon's ambiguous situation, and the decision to jettison Corey Coleman, have altered that landscape. Jarvis Landry can now be expected to confiscate a massive number of targets, and Gordon might still emerge as a major factor in the offense. But Njoku should also be the recipient of a burgeoning role for the Browns this season.
The former first-round pick should escape breakout from the restraints of a timeshare that confined Njoku's usage to a virtual split with Seth DeValve (531/49.7% -501/46.9%). Njoku did lead the Browns with red zone targets (9) and receiving touchdowns (4), and could pace the team in both categories again. Increased targeting will also boost his chances of exceeding last year's reception (32) and yardage totals (386).
Njoku is currently the 14th tight end to be selected, and anyone who is presented with the opportunity of securing him in Round 12 should absolutely do so. At his low ADP cost, he can return a hefty return on his draft day investment.
