This episode is a full first-round mock draft featuring eight cleveland.com reporters. It's a crossover pod of Buckeye Talk, Orange and Brown Talk, and Strictly Stripes, as the cleveland.com experts on Ohio State, the Cleveland Browns and the Cincinnati Bengals come together for one monster episode. All 31 picks in the first round are here, and in this mock four trades are made (including one involving C.J. Stroud), five quarterbacks are taken in the first round, and a good time is had by all. The drafters: Nathan Baird, OSU writer Doug Lesmerises, OSU writer Mary Kay Cabot, Browns writer Dan Labbe, Browns writer Mohammad Ahmad, Bengals writer Andrew Gillis, Bengals writer Jimmy Watkins, Rivalry writer Tim Bielik, NFL Draft writer You'll find the same pod on our Browns and Bengals feeds. But for Ohio State fans wanting to get a feel before Thursday on how Stroud, Paris Johnson and Jaxon Smith-Njigba fit into the bigger picture, we think this is worth your time.
