2012 NFL Mock Draft: Cleveland Browns Snag Robert Griffin III and Kendall Wright
The Cleveland Browns were the dullest, most anemic offensive team in the NFL in 2011. They need an infusion of talented playmakers or this trend will continue into 2012 and beyond.
In my latest mock draft, I have the Cleveland Browns trading up two spots to draft Baylor's Robert Griffin III. They would be able to make this trade without giving up their second first-round pick (22nd overall) by offering next year's first-round choice along with the fourth overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft.
Keeping the 22nd overall pick in this year's draft puts the Browns in a position to further bolster the offense by taking Kendall Wright, Griffin III's college teammate and favorite receiver from Baylor.

Projecting Every NFL Team's Starting Lineup 🔮

Rookie WRs Who Will Outplay Their Draft Value 📈
Wright will be dangerous combined with Gregg Little, Mohamed Massaquoi and Josh Cribbs.
I like Colt McCoy, but he's never going to be the kind of playmaker Griffin III is going to be. Griffin III is the kind of player that is at his best when things break down, whereas McCoy needs everything to work on offense to succeed.
McCoy also doesn't possess the kind of arm that can take advantage of the speed the Browns can throw out there. He isn't a gunslinger, nor does he have a particularly strong arm. This is where Grifffin III shines. He is like a bigger, right-handed version of Michael Vick, minus the impulsive need Vick had to run coming out of college.
I see these two moves instantly giving the Browns a dangerous offense. Yes, they will be even younger and more inexperienced than they were last year, but it's time to make something happen for a positive future.
