2016 NFL Mock Draft – Cleveland Browns Trade the No. 2 Pick: It was just a few days ago that the Tennessee Titans and Los Angeles Rams shook up the 2016 NFL Draft by trading the No. 1 overall pick. Now, the Cleveland Browns have followed suit, shipping the No. 2 overall pick to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles have now made two separate trades to move up from No. 13, so they clearly have their eye on someone. Check out a complete look at how I see the top 10 pick in the draft playing out following the latest trade.
2016 NFL Mock Draft – Cleveland Browns Trade the No. 2 Pick
- Los Angeles Rams: Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota State
I could see either Wentz or Goff being selected, but the size and physical tools of Wentz give him a higher ceiling. His familiarity with a pro-style offense is a selling point, as well.
- Philadelphia Eagles: Jared Goff, QB, California
The Eagles have already been on the record as saying they like both Wentz and Goff, so there is no denying that they are taking a quarterback. Goff is probably the most NFL-ready QB in this class, so Philadelphia has the luxury of shopping Sam Bradford or letting Goff learn for a year.
- San Diego Chargers: Jalen Ramsey, CB, Florida State
The Chargers heavy investment in their current offensive tackles combined with the loss of Eric Weddle makes Jalen Ramsey the most likely choice. He might be the best prospect in the entire draft anyway, and he will certainly help San Diego’s shaky pass defense.
- Dallas Cowboys: Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State
We all know about the Greg Hardy situation, and Randy Gregory is one strike away from a long suspension. With that in mind, grabbing the versatile Bosa, who fits Dallas’ defensive scheme, will allow Dallas to fortify its defensive front with one of the best prospects in the entire draft.
- Jacksonville Jaguars: Myles Jack, LB, UCLA
Jack’s range and overall athleticism are off the charts, and the fact that Jacksonville’s coach and general manager flew to UCLA to take another look at him tells you all you need to know.
- Baltimore Ravens: Laremy Tunsil, OT, Ole Miss
Baltimore won’t hesitate to sure up its offensive line with a player that likely would have gone No. 1 overall had Tennessee not traded out of the spot. Tunsil can start at left tackle in the NFL tomorrow and succeed.
- San Francisco 49ers: DeForest Buckner, DE, Oregon
All the trading that has gone on at the top of the draft pretty much eliminates any chance the 49ers have at landing a quarterback with his pick. Instead, they can bolster their pass rush with a player most scouts consider a top-five prospect.
- Cleveland Browns: Vernon Hargreaves, CB, Florida
I wouldn’t be surprised if Cleveland tries to move down again for even more picks, but if they stay at No. 8, Hargreaves makes a ton of sense. Joe Haden is coming off an injury, and Justin Gilbert has been a colossal bust. Hargreaves has the skills to be a future No. 1 corner.
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Leonard Floyd, LB, Georgia
Tampa Bay’s needs to bolster its pass rush in a big way. Floyd may be a slight reach here, but he has the speed and athleticism to be a major force of the edge.
- New York Giants: Sheldon Rankins, DT Louisville
A good pass rush can solve a lot of problems, and the Giants know that as well as any team. They added Olivier Vernon in free agency to bring pressure of the edge, and Rankins will do the same at the point of attack.
