The rookies and tryout players are in Cleveland, and the rookie minicamp kicks off Friday as the newest Cleveland Browns get on the field for the first time in Berea. With everyone in town, it’s time to get down to business, and Andrew Berry has inked five of the team’s six draft picks to their rookie contracts.
Currently, second-round pick Michael Hall Jr. remains the only 2024 draft pick who hasn’t signed his contract yet. The Browns will get a chance to start developing rookies who will see playing time but won’t be thrust into playing a ton before they’re ready, which is a major plus as they look to be consistent winners year in and year out.
There has been a lot of buzz around seventh-round pick Myles Harden out of South Dakota, and he will be a guy I’ll have a close eye on through minicamp and training camp. Here are the draft picks that have inked their deals before practices kicked off.
