Oh My God! The Browns shot their eye out!!
By DraftBrowns Staff Writer, Ryan Alton
I needed a day to decompress. A day to process. To give adequate and rational thought to the Browns 2013 Draft before I attempted to analyze it. I knew that when I woke up Sunday morning with a feeling of dissatisfaction, and of disappointment, it wasn’t necessarily appropriate. It didn’t feel right. It felt petty. It was a visceral reaction. Like not getting everything you asked for on Christmas even though you still got some pretty cool stuff. Or like the feeling of coming home from vacation and having to go to work the next day. Just bummed. Deflated. A feeling that one would naturally have after the build up of something so anticipated and so hyped that nothing, no matter the outcome, could immediately fill that void except the longing to look forward to something else.

Three rounds into the 2013 NFL Draft the Browns have come away with outside linebacker Barkevious Mingo in the first round, and cornerback Leon McFadden in the third. Much to the chagrin of many fans, the McFadden selection occurred one pick before Tyrann Mathieu – the “Honey Badger” – was chosen by the Arizona Cardinals.

McFadden was our ninth ranked cornerback here at DraftBrowns, and of the eight players in front of him, only Blidi Wreh-Wilson – who was drafted by Tennessee two picks later – was still on the board. The Browns have five draft picks left today and plenty of room to improve the roster. Here’s a look at some of their options on the draft’s third day. (more…)
