The big what if. ESPNs released their annual redraft piece where based on the previous seasons results, they select which players NFL teams would draft if they had a re-do. This is an especially fascinating exercise for the who made a blockbuster trade with Jacksonville on Day 1 of the 2025 draft. In this Alex Reyes Jersey two-round redraft alternate universe, the Browns dont get the haul from a deal. Instead they stay at No. 2, and are left with only their own second round selection, instead of the extra two from Jacksonville. The real world scenario had Cleveland move down from two to five, and take DT Mason Graham. GM Andrew Berry followed that up with a pair of stellar second round selections in LB Carson Schwesinger and RB Quinshon Judkins. Lets look at what ESPN thinks the Browns wouldve done if they had the chance to do the 2025 NFL Draft all over again. Ill add in my analysis of their choices after each pick. More: No. 2 Original pick: , WR/CB, Colorado ( ) New pick: , QB, Louisville The Browns find themselves in a similar spot after failing to hit on either quarterback -- and -- they drafted. Shough's sample size (nine starts) is still small, and there's no knowing how he would have performed with Cleveland's supporting cast. But he impre sed in le s-than-ideal circumstances in New Orleans. -- Daniel Oyefusi Analysis : While I dont disagree on the selection of a quarterback if the Browns didnt trade down, it wouldnt be Shough. Jaxon Dart is still on the board, and showed a much higher ceiling in his rookie year. Battling through injuries, Dart po se ses the dual threat took kit that new head coach Todd Monken could really elevate. No. 33 Original pick: , LB, UCLA New pick: ., TE, Bowling Green Schwesinger is off the board, and a run on offensive linemen leaves the Browns without a much-needed addition there. But Cleveland would have no problem selecting Fannin higher than his original third-round slot. He emerged as the Browns' top pa s catcher despite an unsettled QB situation. -- Daniel Oyefusi Analysis : Soon to be named Defensive Rookie of the Year, mi sing out on Schewsinger is a disappointment. However, the emergence of Fannin as a year-one star with unlimited growth potential in a new Monken offense is a great choice for the top of the second round. This also means the Browns would mi s out on Judkins, and would need to addre s the backfield later. Maybe in this scenario it wouldve meant the return of fan favorite Nick Chubb.
