The Cleveland Browns had a problem last year: they could not stop the run. At the heart of the issue was the defensive tackle room. This consisted of veterans Jordan Elliott, Tavon Bryan, and Tommy Togiai, plus rookies Perrion Winfrey and Roderick Perry.
So this year, GM Andrew Berry placed this group front-and-center as the most group that needed the most attention. It has been seen on many a mock draft the Browns taking a DT with their first pick in this year’s NFL draft in the second round at pick #43 and even again in a later round.
