No. 25 – Jacksonville Jaguars (from Los Angeles Rams) – Travis Etienne (RB)
And just like that we’ve had running backs taken with back-to-back picks. Etienne is a Clemson product who is considered the best receiving back in this class. Known as an explosive playmaker, Etienne is a home run hitter at the running back position. The Jaguars are likely viewing him more as “offensive weapon” who can operate in space, rather than a pure RB. He’ll reunite with his college teammate Trevor Lawrence in Jacksonville.

The #Jaguars, despite having a top young RB in James Robinson, take #Clemson RB Travis Etienne at No. 25. Urban Meyer told me he’d take best player available no matter what. He does and reunites Trevor Lawrence with his college teammate.

No. 26 – Cleveland Browns – Greg Newsome II (CB)
The Cleveland Browns add to what is now a deep cornerback room with the talented Greg Newsome. Newsome has elite lateral and backpedal movement and a great nose for the ball. He did not have many press reps on tape, but that allowed him the chance to show off his great closing speed. A natural in coverage with loose hips, Newsome has number one corner upside.
The Browns take CB Greg Newsome II, Northwestern. Heck of an offseason for Andrew Berry revamping the Cleveland defense.
