Their move from the No. 2 overall pick to the No. 5 overall pick. Walder stated that this move &#8220;gave the Browns an additional first-round pick in 2026, when they likely will be looking to draft a QB.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was actually the extension given to <a href=\"https:\/\/brownswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nfl\/browns\/2025\/07\/09\/browns-myles-garrett-ranked-nfl-best-pass-rusher\/84516792007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Myles Garrett<\/a> that Walder hated the most. Walder indicated the Browns are heading into the direction of a rebuild and passed on the opportunity to land more draft assets to instead give Garrett a mega-deal as he approaches 30 years old.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll see if the Browns can follow this up with a B+ season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Cleveland Browns are coming out of one of the weirder offseasons in recent memories.
