Colorado WR/CB Travis Hunter is being evaluated as primarily a wide receiver by the Cleveland Browns leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, according to Browns general manager Andrew Berry.
Footballguys view: Hunter played both ways in college at both Jackson State and Colorado. Some teams see him mostly as a cornerback who can dabble at receiver. The Browns see him mostly as a receiver. Hunter has said at the Combine that he wants to play both ways, and it's up to a team to decide how much. |
Alabama QB Jalen Milroe, Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders and Miami (Fla.) QB Cam Ward have talked with the Cleveland Browns at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, according to Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski.
Footballguys view: The Browns have the no.2 overall pick and could take Ward or Sanders with that selection. Milroe is more of an option for them later in the draft, perhaps as early as the second round. Sanders is a pocket passer, Ward is a scrambling playground passer, and Milroe is an athletic project. |
