2017 NFL Draft: Projecting every first-round pick for all 32 teams
12. Cleveland Browns: RB Christian McCaffrey, Stanford
Cleveland waits until the stacked 2018 draft class to select a QB. Instead, they add the most versatile player in this draft in Christian McCaffrey.
Don’t let the stereotype fool you. McCaffrey is an every down back that can carry the load for a weapon deprived Cleveland offense. At 5’11, McCaffrey’s size compares to the likes of DeMarco Murray and LeSean McCoy, not Darren Sproles and Danny Woodhead.
The Browns continue to build a strong roster that will be ready to win once a quarterback is acquired.
