Browns and Lions lead the pack in the 2011 Draft
Winner 1. Cleveland Browns
Many Cleveland fans may have had looks of confusion and fear on their faces when they first saw that the Browns traded away their number six pick. However, there can be little doubt that the Browns got away with a steal in the† 2011 National Football League draft.
