Before today’s NFL draft, most analysts believed the Cleveland Browns had an easy pick at #4. The consensus was the Browns were going to pick NC State defensive end Bradley Chubb.

ote, “If Barkley is gone, this should be a pretty easy choice for the Browns. In fact, taking Chubb is smarter than trying to get some extra picks in a trade down scenario. The trio of Chubb, Myles Garrett and Emmanuel Ogbah should be effective against AFC North quarterbacks who are older (Ben Roethlisberger), immobile (Joe Flacco) and average (Andy Dalton).”
Simms wrote, “While Chubb doesn’t remind me of a Khalil Mack, Von Miller or even a Myles Garrett coming out, he’s close. Chubb actually reminds me of Giants edge-rusher Olivier Vernon. He might not dominate every contest, but there’s no weakness to his game.”
Brinson wrote, “his could easily be a trade-down spot, but I don’t think so if Chubb is here. He’s the best player in the draft and will be a terror lined up across from Myles Garrett. The Bills will be interested in moving up, but going down to No. 12 might be too far for Dorsey with all the picks he has on hand.
The Browns however decided to pick Ohio State corner Denzel Ward and Browns fans lost their shit.
