We're just about 48 hours removed from the 2011 NFL Draft, and because there are people like me who are having trouble letting it go, we need to start looking ahead to next year already. SB Nation has already come out with their 2012 NFL Mock Draft, and it has the Browns plugging some holes they failed to fill this year.
↵First of all, they have the Browns picking tenth overall in the first round, which means that they think they will be doing a little bit better than they did this year, but not much. With that pick they have the Browns taking Oklahoma St. wideout Justin Blackmon, who could develop into the first option wide receiver that Colt McCoy needs.
↵They also have the Browns taking a linebacker with their second first round pick, which they acquired from the Atlanta Falcons. Of course, it's easy to do this kind of speculating more than a year out from the draft, but like I said, it's never too early.
