It's April 1st, NFL news today starts now, AI powered and game ready. I'm Corey with the story. The Cleveland Browns hold the 6th pick in this month's NFL draft after scraping by with just 5 wins last year in 2025 and 3, the season before. They desperately need a hit here, especially at quarterback, but the top prospect Fernando Mendoza figures to go first overall and the next guy tie. Vincent likely slas to late first round or early second, so they're eyeing best player available or a fix for their shaky offensive line. A fresh mock draft from the athletic has them grabbing Miami tackle Frances Mauigoa who's been pegged as the top lineman in this class. It's not the flashiest move, but it plugs the clear hole up front without reaching too far at that spot in round 1. Now we're from draft guru Todd McShay paints a different picture based on his latest chats with sources. He first thought the Browns would take Alabama tackle Kate and Proctor with their second
first round pick at 24, which makes sense there. But recent buzz has them bumping him up to 6 overall instead. That idea's got experts cringing. Co-host Steve Moench ripped Proctor's film, saying his past protections weak. He gets beat inside often and has this habit of clicking his heels too. Close. Losing his base and getting shoved around despite his size. Plus, Proctor ballooned near 400 pounds as a freshman, raising red flags for scouts. As the draft nears, the Browns face a real gamble. Play it safe on the line or swing big and risk a bust at 6. Whatever they do, it'll shape their rebuild for years.
