Cleveland Browns add Terrace Marshall, Ifeatu Melifonwu in 7-round mock draft

Round 4, Pick 110: Victor Dimukeje, EDGE, Duke
Adding Jadeveon Clowney was huge for the Browns since it gave them two high-end starters on the edge of their defensive line. They also have Takk McKinley as the primary backup behind Clowney and Myles Garrett. Porter Gustin is also there as is Curtis Weaver, meaning they also have some young talent as well.
The one concern is that Clowney and McKinley are both on one-year deals so it would be smart to add another EDGE in this draft to groom for 2022. That’s why this selection is used on Victor Dimukeje from Duke.
In four seasons, Dimukeje had 21.5 sacks for the Blue Devils with 16 of those coming over the past two seasons.
Round 4, Pick 132: Robert Hainsey, OT, Notre Dame
Kendall Lamm left in free agency as he joined the Tennessee Titans. His job there will be to help replace Isaiah Wilson who proved to be a massive bust — and was actually drafted to replace Jack Conklin who the Browns signed in 2020.
With Lamm out, Cleveland needs a new reserve offensive tackle. Chris Hubbard is set to return from injury but he was actually better playing inside last season. And if 2020 was any indication, they’ll need more than one capable reserve.
Enter Robert Hainsey from Notre Dame. A talented zone-blocker, Hainsey could give the Browns exactly what they need on the bench.
