According to Rich Tandler of CSNWashington.com, there’s a good chance that the Cleveland Browns may not be interested in moving up in the draft to take former Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III. Tandler stated that he’s not convinced that Mike Holmgren will pull the trigger to move up to the second overall pick.  Ultimately they could stay where they are at and even take Ryan Tannehill with the fourth pick,  even though it might be a little high for him, but everyone has an opinion. In the end, the Browns can’t go into next season with Colt McCoy as their starter, their fan base would go bananas.
