The Cleveland Browns want to play it safe because they cannot afford to mess this up after trading down. So what do they do? They use their outside the box thinking to take a guy who probably shouldn’t go in the top ten. With Joe Thomas not getting any younger and a barren right side of the offensive line, Conklin is a great fit for the Browns. He is probably a reach, but the Browns will do what they want.
