82. Dallas (8-8) – Devin Duvernay WR Texas
83. Cleveland **Mock Trade with Denver – from Pittsburgh (8-8)** – Davon Hamilton DT Ohio State
The Browns have addressed defensive end with Adrian Clayborn and defensive tackle with Andrew Bilings. Larry Ogunjobi is coming into the last year of his contract though which means it might be best to grab one more talented DT. Hamilton had a nice last season at Ohio State. He is great at filing the gabs as a run stopper. Hamilton also can get after the quarterback. The big man did tally six sacks in his senior season. Hamilton would be a backup in his first year but would be involved in the rotation immediately.

93. Tennessee* (9-7) – Darrell Taylor Edge Tennessee
94. Green Bay* (13-3) – Troy Pride Jr. CB Notre Dame
95. Denver – from San Francisco* (13-3) – K’Von Wallace S Clemson
96. Kansas City* (12-4) – Matt Hennessy C Temple
97. Cleveland – from Houston (compensatory) – Donovan Peoples-Jones WR Michigan
The Browns need a safety but that might come in the sixth round or later. This draft is filled with talented receivers expected to be selected on day two. The Browns could use a bigger wide receiver and pick 97 could be a spot to do that. Donovan Peoples-Jones is 6’2” and has great leaping ability. He showed that with his 44.5-inch vertical jump at the combine. If he had better quarterbacks at Michigan then his numbers could have been way better. DPJ is not the prospect Braylon Edwards was in 2005. I do believe that he could have a better NFL career than Edwards though. Learning from Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry could greatly assist in the growth of the young wide receiver. Perhaps his talent could be fully unlocked.
