49ers-Browns means Bradley Pinion vs. Andy Lee

The San Francisco 49ers road game against the Cleveland Browns has plenty of implications for draft positioning, but we know the real story: the 49ers first matchup against former punter Andy Lee!

The 49ers traded Lee to the Browns back in June, coming after the team's decision to spend a draft pick on Bradley Pinion. Once the team drafted Pinion, it was clear the team was going to part ways with Lee.

Pinion got off to a slow start with the 49ers, showing inconsistency from week-to-week, and really punt to punt. Lee got off to a strong start, and the comparisons were inevitable.
