Will they really use all those picks?
What’s good about stockpiling draft picks, as the Browns have done, is that they can be used as currency. Don’t expect the team to vault into the first-round stratosphere and take Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford, but do expect some subtle manipulations by General Manager Tom Heckert during the three-day draft process beginning April 22.
As it stands, the Browns have 12 picks, including five of the first 92, 10 in the first five rounds and four in the fifth round.
The draft consists of seven rounds. The Browns have their own pick in each round except the seventh. Here’s the breakdown and how they accrued so many additional picks:
Round one (1 pick): Their own, No. 7 overall.
Round two (1): Their own, No. 38 overall.
Round three (3): Their own, No. 71 overall, plus the No. 85 overall pick acquired from New England through Oakland in the Kamerion Wimbley trade, and the No. 92 overall pick from the New York Jets as part of the Braylon Edwards trade.
Round four (1): Their own, No. 105 overall.
Round five (4): They have the No. 134 overall pick from Tampa Bay as part of the Kellen Winslow trade; their own, No. 137 overall; the No. 146 from Denver through Detroit as part of the Corey Williams trade; and the No. 160 from the Jets from the Edwards deal.
Round six (2): Their own, No. 177 overall, plus No. 186, obtained from Carolina for DT Louis Leonard.
