The Cleveland Browns selected 10 players in the 2026 NFL draft, focusing heavily on offense. Bold predictions include KC Concepcion leading in receiving stats and Emmanuel McNeil-Warren winning Defensive Rookie of the Year.
The Cleveland Browns finished the 2026 NFL draft selecting 10 players, with a clear focus on fixing the offense, as eight of those selections came on that side of the ball. Last season, the Browns' rookies had a big impact, even though the team didn't win many games. On paper, this class looks as good as last year's, so here are four bold predictions about this year's class.
The Browns first round pick out of Texas A&M likely slides into the Zay Flowers role in Todd Monken's offense. In his three seasons as the Baltimore Ravens' offensive coordinator, Flowers had 104, 112, and 117 targets. It's very realistic that KC Concepcion will get that number of targets as a quick answer for his quarterback, who can also create after the catch.
The Browns got aggressive and traded up in the draft to get the versatile Toledo safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in the second round. He's a defensive weapon with a knack for forcing fumbles and creating turnovers, and with this supporting cast, he has a chance to be set loose to wreak havoc on opposing offenses. If he can create turnovers and negative plays, the Browns could have the DROY for the second year in a row.
KC Concepcion is the Browns' first-round pick from Texas A&M, expected to take on a significant role in the offense, similar to Zay Flowers.
Predictions include KC Concepcion leading in targets and receptions, and Emmanuel McNeil-Warren winning Defensive Rookie of the Year.
The Browns drafted 10 players in 2026, with a clear focus on strengthening their offense, selecting eight players for that side of the ball.

Taylen Green is not ready to be the starting quarterback, but with his traits and tools, the Browns would be crazy not to have some package for him. He's better than anyone else on the roster to run some wildcat/run pass option plays, especially in the red zone. His ability to run and throw can make trick plays, and deception would add some good wrinkles to Todd Monken's offense.
Denzel Boston does a fantastic job in contested catch situations and in climbing the ladder to high-point the ball. This will come in handy in the red zone, and I could see the Browns running goal-line fades and quick slants to the big physical wide receiver, resulting in 10 touchdowns or more.
