Travis Hunter already knows where he is headed.
Rumors that the Browns will select the Heisman Trophy-winning cornerback/wide receiver with the No. 2 overall pick have taken center stage as Thursday’s NFL Draft approaches, and a new report has only justified the sentiment that Hunter will be Cleveland’s decision.
A new report states that barring an unforeseen trade, the Browns are locked in on selecting him.
Cleveland views Hunter as a WR first, then as a cornerback.

“The momentum with Hunter built a couple of weeks ago at Colorado’s Pro Day. I was told that Travis Hunter ran routes at his Pro Day, in part because he knew it would make the Browns happy.”
Browns general manager Andrew Berry previously stated that the team views Travis Hunter as more of a receiver due to his explosive play-making ability, but Hunter still wants to play both offense and defense.
Now, it seems like Hunter is trending toward being Cleveland’s selection at No. 2 overall.
