Interesting from the 2 nfl media insiders:
Rapsheet: After days of evaluation at the Combine, one thing is clear: Penn St RB Saquon Barkley is firmly in the mix at No. 1 for the Browns, sources say. Would be the first RB at that spot since Ki-Jana Carter to the Bengals in 1995.
Garofolo then responded: Yep. Firmly. As in I truly believe he’s their pick at 1 as of right now. As for the QB and what they might do at 4, there is very strong buzz Cleveland likes Baker Mayfield a lot.
sounds like the browns are gonna bluff out the giants and assume they wont take a qb (the problem they then might have is that both the colts and giants could trade back to teams who want to get ahead of the browns - they might suddenly find themselves at the 4th pick with 2 qbs off the board already if they take saquon
if im the browns i make a deal with the giants as soon as possible to move from the 4th pick to the 2nd pick to grab saquon and their qb of choice
the only way this works for them taking saquon at number 1 is if they have their top 3 qbs all at the same grade
