Specifically, on the players themselves, one background that teams need to do their research on is a player\u2019s health. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6j\">What kind of injuries, if any, have they had in their past? How serious were those injuries?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6m\">And one of the most important is, are they healthy right now? <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6p\">With the violent nature of football, it\u2019s natural that some of the top guys are currently battling through wounds. So, which ones could the Browns be targeting?<\/p>\n<p>Jordyn Tyson, Wide Receiver, Arizona State<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6v\">Tyson has gotten the short end of the stick many times during his collegiate career; he suffered a torn ACL\/MCL\/PCL at the start of his career, a broken collarbone in 2024, and, most recently, a hamstring injury that kept him out of combine drills.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6y\">When Tyson was on the field, his impact was undeniable. He possesses the ability to make something out of nothing with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/browns\/onsi\/news\/what-todd-monken-looks-for-in-wide-receivers-and-who-the-browns-could-be-targeting-01kn3qnqj37a\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">yards after the catch and a huge catch frame.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jermod McCoy, Cornerback, Tennessee<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"74\">McCoy is one of the top corners in the draft; his athleticism and production call for him to be a top guy at his position in the future. McCoy missed the entire 2025 season with an ACL tear, though, and the NFL combine.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"77\">He returned to action recently at the Tennessee pro day, where he ran a 4.38 40-yard dash, jumped 38\u201d in the vertical jump, and 10\u20197\u201d in the broad jump.<\/p>\n<p>Connor Lew, Center, Auburn<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7d\">Lew is the premier center of the group<a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/browns\/onsi\/news\/browns-gm-andrew-berry-breaks-down-cleveland-s-offensive-line-s-overhaul-01kn04vrf97t\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">, in a position of potential need for Cleveland. <\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7g\">He missed most of last season with a torn ACL, but also returned to action at the combine, posting 31 reps on the bench press. Lew will bring good quickness and strong hands to neutralize rushers at the next level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chris Bell, Wide Receiver, Louisville<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7m\">Bell was expected to be a first-round pick coming into the 2025 season, and through 11 games, he proved it, putting up 72 receptions for 917 yards and six touchdowns. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/college-football\/story\/_\/id\/47272186\/sources-louisville-chris-bell-set-surgery-acl-tear\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bell also suffered a torn ACL, though, in late November<\/a>, which has kept him out of the combine and Louisville\u2019s pro day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-15\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7p\">Bell has already proven that he is a great combination of height, weight, and speed and has the production to show for it.<\/p>\n<p>Drew Allar, Quarterback, Penn State<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-17\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7v\">Talking about guys that possess NFL size, Allar is 6-foot-5, 228 pounds, and is from Medina, Ohio. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-18\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7y\">He suffered a broken left ankle in October that ended his 2025 season. He returned to action at the combine, showing off his premier arm strength.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When it comes to selecting a player in the NFL Draft, there are many different avenues you need&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":847568,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2054],"tags":[86,85,54,2337,7,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-847567","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cleveland-browns","8":"tag-browns","9":"tag-cleveland","10":"tag-cleveland-browns","11":"tag-clevelandbrowns","12":"tag-football","13":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116330626279585604","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/847567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=847567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/847567\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/847568"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=847567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=847567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=847567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
