It's time for the first edition of our annual "Tracking the Cleveland Browns Draft Interests," featuring who the team has reportedly taken a look at leading up to the 2017 NFL Draft.

Listed below, you will find a table that lists the players who the Browns have supposedly met with or scouted from either a visit to Berea, a private workout, or some other way. The list is not comprehensive, as I'm sure the team has scouted more players who aren't listed here. These are the players who have been noted or confirmed by media sources. The "other" category includes reported connections at the NFL Combine, Pro Days, or other miscellaneous venues. The "projected round" data comes from Dane Bruglar's 2017 NFL Draft Guide.

The Browns are allowed to host 30 players at their team headquarters in Berea. Visits by QB Mitch Trubisky, S Malik Hooker, and CB Gareon Conley do not count since they were part of the team’s “local prospect day,” as Zac Jackson of The Athletic explains. Media reports made note of 20 of them so far:

Special Note: This year, the Browns coached the South team in the Senior Bowl, so there would be a lot more connections than usual because of that. To keep our table reasonably small, I’ve only factored a few of those players into our tracker. Please visit the South roster page to see everyone that Hue Jackson and company coached.

If you know of any other players the Browns have reportedly met with or scouted, let us know in the comments section and we will be sure to add them to the table.
