Myles Garrett help? CBS mock draft surprise as Browns ignore O-line for defense originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.

In a mock draft shocker, CBS Sports just dropped a twist on Cleveland Browns fans for Day 1 of the NFL Draft.

The common theme amongst mocks pre-free agency has been for Browns GM Andrew Berry to target his two biggest team weaknesses with the franchise's pair of first round picks. That would be offensive line and wide receiver.

Cleveland's offensive woes over the past couple of seasons have been well documented. Coming off a year where they scored the second fewest points-per-game, new head coach Todd Monken was hired to rejuvenate a dead offense. Of course he'll need the right players to make that happen.

Here are the two picks from analyst Blake Brockermeyer, followed by my thoughts on each selection.

No. 6

Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State (6'3", 195-lbs)

"You have to believe the Browns will use free agency and multiple picks to upgrade an aging offensive line. Tate brings extensive experience and the ability to win anywhere on the field. He's a polished route runner who tracks and high-points the ball in contested-catch situations. Tate is a dependable, trustworthy receiver with strong hands who moves the chains and gives Deshaun Watson or Shedeur Sanders a weapon to help jumpstart the offense."

Analysis

It's a deep draft for quality wide receivers, but to me Tate is definitely the top dog. The Browns haven't drafted a wideout in the first round since the bust that was Corey Coleman in 2016. Time for Berry to go grab that stud playmaker.

No. 24 (via Jacksonville)

Cashius Howell, Edge, Texas A&M (6'2", 248-lbs)

"Myles Garrett and the Browns' defense would become even more dominant if they pair him with another skilled pass rusher. Howell wins with speed and a strong long arm, and he counters inside when tackles overset. He plays with a great motor and shows natural pass-rush instincts. Howell also has the twitch and get-off to create problems."

Analysis

I wholeheartedly disagree with this pick and would be absolutely floored if Howell's name is called by Cleveland. First of all, in November the Browns signed pass-rusher Alex Wright to a three-year $33-million extension. Draft pick Isaiah McGuire is also still on his rookie deal and is a key rotational piece. 

Even if Berry is active in free agency to help rebuild the O-line, all five starters are currently unsigned. Using a premium first rounder on a lineman will very likely still be necessary.
