For now, the Cleveland Browns are not at a point where focusing on what other teams in the AFC North or the AFC in general is a priority in their decision-making. At the point in the future where the team is competing for an AFC Championship, some decisions might be made to combat whatever the other contenders are doing.

In the 2026 NFL draft, the Browns are deciding between a number of top prospects as well as the possibility of trading down. Cleveland podcasts are mostly focused on the Browns selecting WR Carnell Tate, but he’s far from a certain selection.

While Tate might be the favorite of fans and media, today’s Question of the Day is about what you do not want to see from the AFC North rivals. The Cincinnati Bengals have the 10th pick, the Baltimore Ravens follow with the 14th selection, and the Pittsburgh Steelers select 21st.

SB Nation’s most recent 1st round NFL mock draft has the following first-round picks for those three teams:

Bengals – OT Francis Mauigoa

Ravens – OL Olaivavega Ioane

Steelers – QB Ty Simpson

Whether it is those selections or someone else, who would you hate to see the rest of the AFC North come away with in this year’s NFL draft?
