Cleveland Browns' 2026 NFL Draft Picks and Needs

Kristopher KnoxApr 23, 2026

Picks:ย Nos. 6, 24, 39, 70, 107, 146, 149, 206, 248

Top Needs:ย OL, WR, CB

The Cleveland Browns have a good amount of draft capital, including two first-round picks. However, they have some glaring needs that must be addressed in this year's draft.

With the evaluation of quarterbacksย Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabrielย set to commence, theย Browns need at least another offensive tackle and a starting-caliber receiver. They could realistically look to add multiple receivers and tackles this year, and some additional guard depth wouldn't hurt.

Expect general manager Andrew Berry to try moving down and adding more draft darts in the early rounds. If he can't, prospects like Ohio State receiverย Carnell Tateย and Utah offensive tackleย Spencer Fanoย are logical targets at No. 6.

A receiver such as Indiana'sย Omar Cooper Jr.ย or a tackle like Alabama'sย Kadyn Proctorย would then be a logical pick at No. 24โ€”depending on which position is addressed first.

Given the Browns' history of cornerback injuries, they could use some depth there, as well. Expect prospects such as Texas cornerย Malik Muhammad, Louisville receiverย Chris Bell, Georgia Tech interior linemanย Keylan Rutledge, and Utah tackleย Caleb Lomuย to be in Cleveland's sights early on Day 2.
