TEAMS: Cleveland Browns
Michael Lombardi the Cleveland Browns new G.M. may have an interest in the NFL’s top free agent this off-season, Joe Flacco. It is Lombardi’s job to investigate any possible free agents that could help the Cleveland Browns win. Joe Flacco who just won the Super Bowl is a free agent, he wants a contract that will put him among the NFL’s highest paid quarterbacks. It could be pay back time in Cleveland, in 1995 the Browns played their last game at the old Cleveland Stadium, then they packed up and left for Baltimore.

Via Cleveland Sports 360  |  February 08, 2013
The Sports Network’s mock draft had the Cleveland Browns picking Barkevious Mingo with the teams first pick in the first round of the 2013 draft. I think they could be right with the Browns going to the 3-4 defense. I still think the Browns would be better off taking a corner back as the teams first draft.
