Social media took it from there with insight, analysis and reactions about each of the picks. Here's some of the posts highlighting the Day 2 draft picks.

Martin Emerson selection one with a long-term view. TBD how he helps #Browns much immediately. But could eventually develop into No. 2/3 CB alongside Ward/Newsome. Also, brings complementary skill-set, as a long, physical press corner

#Browns DE Alex Wright had a 19.9% pressure rate and a 26.1% pass rush win rate, both numbers placed him at the top 5 at his position

He is one of only 7 FBS defenders to post an 80.0+ grade against the run and the pass. pic.twitter.com/6lew18hXqS

David Bell was one of the two guys who helped elevate Purdue the most. Love him. Nice pick.

Andrew Berry on David Bell: some of the best hands in this draft class and very savvy as a route runner, very nuanced and polished.
— Zac Jackson (@AkronJackson) April 30, 2022

Worth remembering that new Browns WR David Bell said Greg Newsome II was the toughest cornerback he's ever faced at the NFL Combine...

Now, they're teammates.https://t.co/Mnpw9k8QZV
