The Cleveland Browns select quarterback Cam Ward, the most gifted thrower in the class. Ward plays with a rare effortlessness for the position. He has the arm to make any throw and the speed to escape pressure. The 6-foot-2, 220-pound quarterback loves to hunt for the big play.

Mock drafts are difficult. They’re mostly about creating discussion and providing general analysis — unless I get a couple of the Cleveland Browns’ picks right, in which case I’ll relentlessly victory lap and constantly write about the importance of mock drafts.
