The Browns have already made three picks in this draft, but they are moving up the board to make a fourth top-60 selection. The 49ers are sending them Nos. 58 & 152 in exchange for Nos. 70 & 107. As a result, Toledo’s Emmanuel McNeil-Warren is heading across the state to play in Cleveland’s secondary.
A three-year starter for the Rockets, McNeil-Warren lit up the stat sheet in his sophomore year as he made plays all over the gridiron. A five-game absence due to injury hurt his junior year production, but the 6-foot-3, 200-pound safety returned for his senior campaign and, once again, showed he was a playmaker. In 35 games as a starter, McNeil-Warren has 207 total tackles, a sack, 11 tackles for loss, five interceptions (one returned for a score), 13 passes defensed, and eight forced fumbles.
More to come.
Cleveland is having a solid draft. Got themselves a tackle, two high upside WRs with different styles and roles, and a stud safety so far.
So would’ve loved this guy on the Eagles over Stowers.
Great pick.
