NEEDS: 

ILB: Williams had a career year and Bostic was a decent pickup but they will need more than that to replace Shazier. Also, Shazier and Williams will be free agents in 2019.
S/DB: This is a make or break year for Davis as a starting safety. 
Backup QB:  Big Ben is now 36, time to start thinking about his replacement. They drafted Joshua Dobbs last year. Is he the answer?

NEEDS: 

QB: The Browns have NOT had a true franchise QB since Bernie Kosar in the 1980's!!!!!! The Browns should draft a QB at #1 if they are smart. 

OT:  Joe Thomas was one of the greatest left tackles in NFL history, his retirement is a massive loss for the Browns offensive line. Luckily they have a good interior line, but they need to draft another OT. 

RB: They signed Hyde and Johnson is a great pass catching back, but if Saquon Barkley is still there at #4 he will be hard to pass up. 

DE: Garrett is the real deal but the jury is still out on Ogbah.
