CLEVELAND, Ohio - Browns' draft disasters are never too far removed from the conversation once the NFL season ends and focus begins to turn to the scouting combine in early March.
This was especially true Monday when the Pittsburgh Steelers announced the release of former Browns' Top 10 pick...you knew him, you didn't love him, you pretty much had to do without him...Justin Gilbert.
The Browns traded Gilbert to Pittsburgh for a 2018 sixth-round pick in September, two years after making him the No. 8 overall choice in the 2014 draft.
The only thing that kept Gilbert from being recognized as the Browns biggest miss in that draft was the craziness surrounding Johnny Manziel, who was chosen 14 spots lower than Gilbert.
