The Browns started and finished their 2025 NFL Draft with two moves that bookended what could be a franchise-altering draft.

The 2025 NFL Draft is here, and the Cleveland Browns have three picks remaining. The Browns opened the draft by trading down from the No. 2 pick to the No. 5 pick, where they selected defensive tackle Mason Graham while trade partner Jacksonville picked dual-threat and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter second overall.
