The 2024 NFL Draft is just under a month away.
The initial wave of free agency is over, and the countdown to the draft is on. So, it's time to take an updated look at who the draft experts and analysts believe the Browns could look to draft at No. 54 in the second round.
The pick: LB Edgerrin Cooper, Texas A&M
Analysis: Cooper is a physical linebacker that also brings a level of speed. Over his four years at Texas A&M, Cooper tallied 205 tackles, 30.5 tackles for loss and 8.5 sacks. He has had two interceptions, eight passes defensed, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. Cooper had his best season during his senior year in 2023, when he was named first-team All-SEC and first team Associated Press All-American and finished the season with 84 tackles and eight sacks.
The pick: WR Malachi Corley, Western Kentucky

The pick: CB T.J. Tampa, Iowa State
Analysis: Tampa played four seasons at Iowa State and finished his collegiate career with 107 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, three interceptions, 19 passes defensed and one forced fumble.
The pick: DT T'Vondre Sweat, Texas

The pick: CB/S Javon Bullard, Georgia
Analysis: Campbell believes the Browns could use depth in the secondary, and Bullard's physicality and awareness could prove beneficial as a defensive back.
