Browns draft pick earns prized ‘sleeper’ tag

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry received some praise in some circles for getting “value” from the club’s seven draft selections.

With no selections in the first two rounds, Berry had the freedom/necessity to take some chances - offensive tackle Dawand Jones comes to mind - and the result was landing players much later in the draft than they were projected to be selected.

Along with the value picks, Berry was able to pick up wide receiver Cedric Tillman from Tennessee, a selection that was lauded as a “sleeper pick” in an article by ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg that asked 30 college coaches for their opinion on the draft.
