Browns Considering Baker Mayfield First Overall
7 years agoESPN's Adam Schefter tweeted on Tuesday that the Cleveland Browns are "definitely" considering Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield with the first overall pick in Thursday's NFL draft. The inclusion of Mayfield means the Browns have been strongly linked to Wyoming's Josh Allen, USC's Sam Darnold and Mayfield in the past few weeks. At this point, it is anyone's guess who exactly the Browns are targeting with the first overall pick, although it will almost certainly be a quarterback. General manager John Dorsey has been extremely tight-lipped about his plans for the draft and the addition of Mayfield's name to the pool just adds more drama and intrigue to the draft. However, whoever they choose is expected to sit behind Tyrod Taylor, so the rookie won't have any redraft value in fantasy leagues.
