AFC North Mock Draft: Making picks ahead of Week 9

We are now in the thick of it in the eighth week of the regular season. However, we are locking back into one of our favorite series on Browns Wire: AFC North Mock Drafts

Of course, Mock Draft Monday will still focus on the team itself, but what will the other teams in the division need come next April? We look at that and do three-round mock drafts for every team in the AFC North, not just the Cleveland Browns. That accomplishes two things: fans learn what the team needs and what the other opponents in the division have, and you also learn more names in college football.

With that in mind, let's jump into the picks as we go through the uber-talented AFC North, which is led by the Cleveland Browns at the moment.
