Newsletter: Julian Okwara Signing Notes, Mock Draft Roundup, and Nick Chubb is Waiting Patiently

1 week ago | brownsfilmbreakdown.com | Jake Burns

These nine days leading up to the NFL Draft are some of the worst and best at the same time. We get so much anticipation but at this time we are completely drained with the hypotheticals and those completely entrenched in their stance or belief about prospects or pathways for the organization. The best part of this stretch of time is what could be and it’s exciting to get that experience again soon.
Newsletter: Comparing Colts’ Joe Flacco to the Browns’ Joe Flacco

1 week ago | brownsfilmbreakdown.com | Jake Burns

The Browns made the decision to bring Joe Flacco back to Cleveland in an effort to boost the baseline of their current…..shallow room. No offense meany to Kenny Pickett but the likelihood the gun-shy, one-read quarterback is able to find consistent success inside a chaotic pocket would be one of the NFL’s largest positional turnarounds in some time.

We’re getting so close to the 2025 NFL Draft, folks. So close you’re probably tired of talking about the prospects. Logging into different chat forums and Twitter threads and all of the noise that can wear you down on who you believe in and who you believe the Browns will take.

We hate it, but we love it because it means we’re just a fun weeks away.

It feels as though we’re in the middle of a battle for the correct non-quarterback at the second overall pick. At least that has been the vibe for a few weeks now considering the quotes we heard from Owner’s Meetings where all three important organizational figures laid groundwork for patience at the position.

The Browns will not be trading for Dak Prescott. Just wanted to get that out of the way now. Scott will elaborate more on the difficulties of that fantasy situation tomorrow but it was such a jarring thing to see that I had to at least say something off the top. Here is the report with “inside information” in case you’re lost. Anyway, let’s get back to real business now.
