Much like Hue Jackson, John Dorsey had a moment of clarity at the end of the team’s private workout with Baker Mayfield in late March.
The Browns general manager knew he’d found his No. 1 pick.
“I knew in my gut that was going to be the guy,” Dorsey said Wednesday on NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football.”
Dorsey, though, kept that feeling to himself. The process, he said, needed to play itself out, and he didn’t want to cloud the judgment of those around him who would be backing the decision.
“When you make a decision this large you want to have unanimous consent in the building,” Dorsey said.
