The Browns’ brain-trust concludes its scouting tour on Thursday in Boulder, CO, with dinner and a movie with Colorado stars Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter and their families.
OK, so there’s no movie. But there could be game film.
There won’t be a physical workout because the Browns don’t want to impose on Sanders and Hunter, who will display their physical wares at the Colorado pro day workouts in front of all 32 NFL teams on Friday.
Coach Prime’s big event signals the end of the pro day season and the beginning of the homestretch of the pre-draft process.
The Browns have about 20 more visits to their headquarters prior to the draft, per a team source, sandwiched around endless draft meetings to finalize their draft board.
There are a few more mock drafts to come, too.
