It's time for the third edition of our annual "Tracking the Cleveland Browns Draft Interests" feature.
Listed below, you will find a table that lists the players who the Browns have supposedly met with or scouted from either the East/West Shrine Game, Senior Bowl, the NFL Combine, or a Private Workout/Visit. The list is not comprehensive, as I'm sure the team has scouted more players who aren't listed here. These are the ones who have supposedly been confirmed by media sources.
The following players were added to the list since our second edition: QB Matt Barkley, RB Jemaine Cooke, WR Perez Ashford, TE Travis Kelce, TE Cordale Scott, OT Eric Fisher, OT Kyle Long, OG Edmund Kugbila, C Matthew Mihalik, DT Shariff Floyd, DT Star Lotulelei, DT Steve Bigach, DE Justin Staples, OLB Barkevious Mingo, ILB Daniel Molls, ILB Steve Greer, FS Josh Evans, SS Duke Williams, SS Jamel Johnson, SS Ashante Williams, and K Matt Weller. Also, CB Mike Edwards had an "x" added to his name. Many of the visits came as a result of the Browns hosting a private workout with a bunch of "local players," according to the Official Team Site.
