Overview

  • Travis Hunter, the 2024 Heisman Trophy winner, is being considered by the Browns for the No. 2 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, with GM Andrew Berry likening his two-way talent to baseball star Shohei Ohtani.
  • Berry has emphasized Hunter’s primary role would be as a wide receiver, with cornerback as a secondary position, and stated there would be no artificial restrictions on his snap count.
  • The Browns remain undecided on their draft strategy, keeping options open between Hunter, quarterback prospects, or edge rusher Abdul Carter, while prioritizing long-term team impact and value.
  • If Hunter is selected at No. 2, Cleveland may use their No. 33 pick in the second round to address quarterback depth or explore trade opportunities to maximize draft capital.
  • Berry acknowledged the challenges of integrating a two-way player in the NFL but expressed confidence in Hunter’s elite conditioning and adaptability to professional demands.
