Browns Target Tackle, Receiver in 2026 Draft
23 Apr
Summary
- Browns hold two picks in the 2026 NFL Draft: No. 6 and No. 24.
- Analysts predict the Browns will select a tackle and a receiver.
- The order of selection for tackle and receiver remains uncertain.

As the 2026 NFL Draft commences on Thursday, the Cleveland Browns are poised to make two significant selections, holding picks No. 6 and No. 24. These selections represent crucial opportunities to build the team's future foundation.
Experts largely agree that the Browns are focused on acquiring both an offensive tackle and a wide receiver during the first round. The debate among analysts centers on which position will be addressed first with their initial pick.
While the team's intentions seem clear regarding tackle and receiver, some sources suggest the Browns could surprise with their choices, potentially even considering defensive help as a way to facilitate a trade down. However, the prevailing expectation is a focus on offensive skill positions and protection. The Browns made a notable trade last year for Travis Hunter, hoping it would position them to acquire a quarterback this year, but that does not appear to be the outcome.
