The first round of the NFL Draft for Cleveland Browns fans is usually an exercise in frustration (2011 - see Taylor, Phil), agony (2014 - see Manziel, Johnny), and bewilderment (2014 - see Gilbert, Justin). Depending on how many picks the Browns have in the first round, those emotions can be repeated throughout the course of the night.
For a franchise that has made repeated draft failures, especially at the quarterback position, the first pick is going to be monitored up until the moment the selection is announced. While there are quarterbacks who may offer greater long-term potential (see Josh Allen), this is a franchise that simply needs to make a solid pick at the quarterback position (see Sam Darnold). Using a baseball analogy, the Browns cannot swing for the fences; being content with a single will be a step in the right direction.
So much depends on what the New York Giants do with the second selection. If the NY Giants take Penn State RB Saquon Barkley, the Browns should be content to sit tight with their pick obtained from Houston and take NC State DE Bradley Chubb. If the Giants trade the pick to Buffalo, again, the Browns should be able to take Bradley Chubb at four. And in my scenario...well, how about you see how I can envision this possibly turning out.
