Cleveland Browns Have Other Needs, But Can?t Skip Best Player In 2012 NFL Mock Draft
Colt McCoy appears to be on his way to a solid NFL career, and if Andrew Luck were any other quarterback, the Browns would almost certainly stay with McCoy and spend this pick elsewhere. Luck, though, is such a transcendent talent that Cleveland cannot afford not to pick him.
Luck appears to be the surest thing as an NFL QB since Peyton Manning. He has the build (6?4?, 235 lbs), the arm and the accuracy (70.7 percent completion last year) to be an immediate sensation.
Although Luck will no longer have the benefit of standout QB tutor Jim Harbaugh (gone to the San Francisco 49ers), it?s hard to imagine him not developing even further in his junior year. He has a chance to lead his team to a national title, which would elevate his reputation that much farther into the stratosphere.
Cleveland?s sub-par receiving corps and middling offensive line won?t do Luck any favors, but he would still be the frontrunner for offensive rookie of the year.
