WFNY’s 2018 NFL Draft Guide

As a site, we seem to cover the NFL Draft from the moment the college football season kicks off all the way until NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announces Mr. Irrelevant on Day 3 of the draft. The same can probably be said for all Browns-related blogs out there.

WFNY’s own Jake Burns and Joe Gilbert, among others, have done an outstanding job covering every angle of the draft, from their posts during the college football season all the way up to the moment the first pick is announced Thursday night.

As a group, I think we would all agree that we would put WFNY’s NFL Draft coverage up against anyone’s, and to think that it’s not even a full-time job makes it even more impressive.

With the 2018 NFL Draft set to start in just a few short hours, we would like to give you all of our pre-draft coverage in a single post. Although there are a number of articles that both Jake and Joe (and others) wrote prior to the calendar turning to 2018, here’s a list of all of the pre-2018 NFL Draft coverage that WFNY has done since January 1:
