2025 NFL Draft: After trading the No. 2 pick, the Browns take DT Mason Graham 5th overall

The Cleveland Browns apparently had a plan for NFL Draft night. It's just not the one anyone saw coming.

Minutes after trading the second overall pick to the Jacksonville Jaguars in one of the most stunning trades in recent NFL Draft history, the Browns wasted no time making the fifth overall pick they got back in return. The Browns took Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham with the first pick they received back from Jacksonville. NFL Network said the pick by the Browns was already made, and the New England Patriots' pick of Will Campbell with the fourth pick hadn't even been announced.
