Every NFL Team’s Best Draft Pick of All-Time

<p>The Browns may be known more their misses on draft day, but this one is easy as Jim Brown is easily the team’s best draft pick, with Ozzie Newsome a distant second. Brown may be the greatest football player to ever play the game so it’s a no-brainer to have him as the Browns best pick after they took the Syracuse back with the No. 6 pick in 1957.</p> <p>Brown lost the Heisman to Paul Hornung and saw the Golden Boy go first overall in the draft that saw nine Hall of Fame players taken in the first 109 picks, but none who had the career of Brown.</p> <p>The 6-2, 232-pound Brown was an unstoppable force who was the biggest, fastest, strongest and toughest guy on the field. He led the NFL in rushing in eight of his nine seasons, including the first five of his career, and was the league’s all-time leading rusher with 12,312 yards at the time of his retirement at 29. He led the league with 289 carries for 1,584 yards and matched his career-high with 17 touchdowns in his last year.</p> <p>Can you imagine how ridiculous his numbers would be if he didn’t pursue a career in Hollywood?</p> <p>The Hall of Famer still holds the record for 104.3 rushing yards per game which likely will never be broken.</p>. RB. Cleveland Browns. Jim Brown. 8. player. 53
