2020 NFL Draft: Cleveland Browns Day 2 targets

The Cleveland Browns lay claim to three picks on Day 2 of the 2020 NFL Draft, including one second-round and two third-round selections.

After taking Alabama offensive Jedrick Wills Jr. with the No. 10 overall pick, the Cleveland Browns will now turn their attention toward Day 2 of the 2020 NFL Draft, where they lay claim to one second-round selection (41 overall) and two third-round picks (74 and 97 overall).

Here is a list of players still available entering Friday night's second and third rounds, who might be of particular interest to the Browns:

Xavier McKinney, S, Alabama

Versatile safety who has shown ability in both coverage and run support. Considered by many to be the best safety prospect in the draft, but calf issue may have caused poorer than expected testing at the combine.

Ross Blacklock, DT, TCU

Productive college player (15.5 tackles for loss, 5.5 sacks in last two seasons) who was projected as a potential first-round pick. Has NFL size (6-foot-4, 305 pounds), but tested poorly (29.4 NFL percentile in SPARQ score) at NFL Scouting Combine.

Antoine Winfield Jr., CB/S, Minnesota

Versatile safety who could add flexibility to both level of the Browns' secondary. Son of NFL and Ohio State great Antoine Winfield. Tested well (81.8 percent NFL SPARQ score) at scouting combine.

Tee Higgins, WR, Clemson

Big bodied (6-foot-4, 216 pounds) wideout who could add a new dimension to the Browns passing game. Caught 135 passes for 2,448 yards and 27 touchdowns in three seasons at Clemson.

Yetur Gross-Matos, DE, Penn State

Projected first-round pick who could add flexibility and depth to a Browns defensive line that currently lacks both.

Zack Baun, LB, Wisconsin

Athletic and aggressive linebacker who still has room to grow as a pass-rusher. Tallied 19.5 tackles for a loss in 12.5 sacks in his senior season with the Badgers.

Grant Delpit, S, LSU

Physical safety who has also flashed strong coverage skills. Won the 2019 Jim Thorpe Award, which is given to the nation's top defensive back, after totaling 65 tackles, 7 pass defenses and 2 interceptions last season.

Trevon Diggs, CB, Alabama

Long, rangy corner who has also shown the ability to play safety. Recorded 8 pass defenses and 3 interceptions in 2019. The brother of Buffalo Bills Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs.

Denzel Mims, WR, Baylor

Big (6-foot-3, 207 pounds) receiver with top-end athleticism (94.6 percent NFL SPARQ score). Caught 66 passes for 1,020 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2019.

Michael Pittman Jr., WR, USC

Six-foot-four, 220-pound target who caught 101 passes for 1,275 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2019. Tested well enough (85.7 percent NFL SPARQ score) to likely meet the Browns' threshold at the position).

Jeremy Chinn, S, Southern Illinois

Big bodied (6-foot-3, 221 pounds) safety who tested as the top player at his position at the combine.

Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR, Michigan

Former 5-star prospect who tested as the top wide receiver (99th NFL percentile) at the NFL Scouting Combine. Poor quarterback play and overall offense helped contribute to underwhelming college production.

Kyle Duggar, S, Lenoir-Rhyne

Tested as the No. 2 safety at the scouting combine, only behind Chinn. A 6-foot-1, 217-pound playmaker who recorded 10 interceptions and 6 punt returns for touchdowns during college career.

Other names to watch:

  • Logan Wilson, LB, Wyoming
  • Chase Claypool, WR, Notre Dame
  • Cole Kmet, TE, Notre Dame
  • A.J. Epenesa, DL, Iowa
  • Jabari Zuniga, Edge, Florida
  • Jaylon Johnson, CB, Utah
  • Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU
  • Ashtyn Davis, S, Cal
  • Adam Trautman, TE, Dayton
