• Browns: Which players made ESPN’s list of the best draft picks ever?

Joel Bitonio and Rob Burnett are on the list. But are there other Cleveland players who should have made the cut? The Cleveland Browns, like every other NFL team, have had their share of misses when it comes to the NFL Draft. Guard Pete Adams instead of guard Joe DeLamielleure in 1973. Offensive tackle Billy Corbett instead of tight end Dave Casper or linebacker Jack Lambert in 1974. Linebackers ...2025
