Vince Mayle to Browns: Full Draft-Pick Breakdown

The Cleveland Browns signed veteran receivers Dwayne Bowe and Brian Hartline this offseason, but adding a young wide receiver to develop was still a priority in the 2015 NFL draft. 

The team added Vince Mayle (pronounced may-lee) with the 123rd selection after moving down from No. 116 in a trade with the Arizona Cardinals:

"

— Cleveland Browns (@Browns) May 2, 2015"

Mayle is purely a developmental prospect for the Browns and will probably be used sparsely in 2015. However, he will also be a 24-year-old rookie, so the clock is ticking on his development. 

It's been a winding road to the NFL for Mayle, who originally attended Shasta Community College in 2009 to play basketball but then spent two years away from sports altogether before returning to football at Sierra Junior College in 2012. 

In two years at Washington State, he developed quickly and fit nicely into Mike Leach's system, establishing himself as a quality possession receiver and red-zone threat. 

Physically, he is a clone of Bowe at 6'2", 224 pounds. He doesn't display the same athleticism Bowe showed early in his career, but Mayle compares favorably to the possession receiver Bowe has become as he's gotten older. 

The Browns likely view Mayle as an eventual replacement for Bowe and would like to see him spend a year or two behind him in order to learn the nuances of the position. 

According to Spotrac, Bowe is guaranteed $4.6 million in 2015 but will cost $8 million against the salary cap. If Mayle develops quickly, Bowe may become expendable, and an increased role could emerge for Mayle during his sophomore campaign. 

In terms of immediate value, however, he does not offer much to the Browns. In fact, he'll have a battle on his hands just to make the 53-man roster.

Ooh, Vince Mayle. Like it Cleveland. Guy's got big talent, but very iffy hands. Dropped a nation-leading 19 passes. Intriguing player

Bowe and Hartline are likely to be the starters on the outside, with Taylor Gabriel and Andrew Hawkins primarily lining up in the slot.

That leaves Mayle to compete with Travis Benjamin and Marlon Moore for the fifth wide receiver position on the roster. 

To select Mayle in the fourth round, the Browns obviously like what he offers, but in terms of immediate value, it's tough to argue he brings more to the table than Benjamin or Moore. Both players returned kicks for the Browns a season ago, while Mayle enters the league with minimal special teams experience. 

As a result, he should be pulling hard for his fellow rookie Duke Johnson to lock down the kick and punt return duties. If the Browns don't need Benjamin and Moore returning kicks, it would dramatically increase the odds that Mayle can stick around on the depth chart while watching from the sidelines as a rookie.
