When a team's history includes Jim Brown this decision becomes easy. Brown was an elite NFL player with skills rarely seen. He is the Cleveland Browns' best draft pick.
Why Brown is the best draft pick in Browns history: You have to ask? The mere fact that Brown was taken sixth by Paul Brown should say something for the selection. Brown set new standards for running backs, as his rare combination of size, power and speed made it nearly impossible for one player to tackle him. Brown led the league in rushing in eight of his nine seasons, and was a key member of the last championship team in Cleveland, the 1964 team that beat the Baltimore Colts 27-0.
