Could Browns pass on Myles Garrett?

The consensus No.1 pick? That might not be the case with the Browns and edge rusher Myles Garrett.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter has heard suggestions the Browns could take North Carolina quarterback Mitchell Trubisky first overall.

That would play directly into the 49ers’ hands and provide them with a generational pass rusher to bolster a defense in desperate need of players who can pressure the QB.
