They had to wait a night and more than an hour, but the Cleveland Browns are finally on the board in the 2019 NFL Draft.
With the 46th overall pick, the Browns chose LSU cornerback Greedy Williams.
Cleveland acquired the pick in a trade with the Indianapolis Colts.
The Browns did not have a first rounder following a March trade that brought them celebrated receiver Odell Beckham Jr. in exchange for Cleveland’s first-round pick, a third rounder and safety Jabrill Peppers.
