7. TE becomes a top draft concern

David Njoku will have a great season, but the sense of urgency to find a tight end in the 2020 NFL Draft escalates.

The Browns will see they need someone else, preferably someone who can block and catch.

Dorsey acquisition Demetrius Harris does, OK, but the Browns after him, the Browns are basically taking guys off the streets, continuing the experiment of turning basketball player Rico Gathers into a football player.

Ricky Seals-Jones, is another swing from Dorsey to try and bolster the TE room ahead of the season.

The Browns need for a second tight end may be most magnified against division rivals. Both the Ravens and Steelers run a 3-4 defensive base, and having two tight ends can help slow a pass rush while also freeing up a tight end over the middle.

The Browns have plenty of weapons on their receiving crops, but the need for a second tight end, and the performance of the guy Dorsey brought in, Harris, will be of particular interest for Draftniks.
