Of the four compensatory picks Cleveland was awarded for April’s draft, two have already been traded away. The Browns received one selection in the third round (No. 103 overall), two in the fourth (Nos. 139 and 142) and one in the fifth (No. 183). However, the thirdround pick will go to the Patriots as part of the trade for linebacker Jamie Collins in October. And one of the fourth-round picks (No. 139) will transfer to the Eagles as part of last year’s blockbuster deal in which the Browns traded down from No. 2 overall.
As a result of sanctions imposed because of improper use of walkie-talkies during a Sunday night game against the Cowboys last December, the team’s fourth-round pick in the upcoming draft will drop 10 spots to No. 140 overall, the NFL announced.
