The Browns’ need for an inside linebacker was amplified after Mack Wilson’s season-ending injury.

Nick Bolton is generally underrated compared to guys like Micah Parsons and Dylan Moses, but he should be right there in the conversation at least with Moses for LB2 honors in the 2021 NFL Draft.

In addition to his 103 total tackles last year, Bolton showed he is a three-down player with seven pass breakups and two interceptions in coverage.

The Browns need more options in the passing game and Sage Surratt has a big body with the potential to play an inside-outside role at the next level, and he can win vertically from the slot with ease.

Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry can’t keep doing it all at the receiver position for Cleveland.
