Over at Dawgs By Nature, Cleveland Browns fans have been compiling their big board in preparation for the 2011 NFL Draft later this month. Basically, the big board represents a list of players who fans want Cleveland to draft. For example, fans might think that Cameron Newton will go No. 1 overall, but since fans don’t think Cleveland needs a quarterback, he won’t even be listed in the Top 10 rankings in this list. Here is the top ten thus far:
↵1. Patrick Peterson CB, LSU
↵2. AJ Green, WR, Georgia
↵3. Marcel Dareus, DT, Alabama
↵4. Da’Quan Bowers, DE, Clemson
↵5. Von Miller, LB, Texas A&M
↵6. Julio Jones, WR, Alabama
↵7. Robert Quinn, DE, North Carolina
↵8. Nick Fairley, DT, Auburn
↵9. Prince Amukamara, CB, Nebraska
↵10. Cameron Jordan, DE, Cal
No real surprises, although I did not necessarily expect Von Miller to be listed ahead of Julio Jones and Robert Quinn. That is something interesting to consider when it comes to fan reaction on draft day.
