It is Sunday, April 24, 2022, and it is officially draft week for the Cleveland Browns and the other 31 NFL teams.
The Browns currently have no first-round picks so unless a trade happens, a situation GM Andrew Berry deemed “unlikely” at his Friday press conference, we won’t hear any selections for the team until Friday, April 29.

All of the festivities for Mayfield’s big weekend appeared to be well-attended and fun events for OU and Mayfield fans, but his statue leaves little to be desired as it looks nothing like him.
