DeShone Kizer falls to the Browns 

As if the Cleveland Browns were not having a good enough draft, the team sat back on Friday evening and saw this former Notre Dame quarterback fall right into its lap. What a major coup for the long downtrodden franchise. Sure, Kizer is not ready to see the field. His former coach in South Bend said as much — a point Kizer agreed with after the fact.

What we do know about Kizer is that he has tremendous raw ability for a quarterback and a great arm. He was seen as a first-round talent before struggling at the annual NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis earlier in the year. Some even had him as a first-round prospect heading into the draft on Thursday.

Cleveland was able to pick Kizer up after selecting an absurd three times in the first round. It was also able to land a potential franchise quarterback after acquiring an additional first-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. This has been a downright scary good draft for the Browns’ front office, general manager Sashi Brown included.
