Just like the Browns made my favorite move in free agency with John Johnson, they just made my favorite pick in the draft with Greg Newsome

Newsome to Cleveland was just as obvious as Najee Harris to Pittsburgh. A natural fit.

And I wouldn't be surprised if Newsome has a Jedrick Wills' type of impact on the 2021 team.

Love Greg Newsome II for the #Browns. Cleveland's turned their secondary into a rough-and-tumble band of troublemakers.
