The consensus top wide receiver in the draft would certainly help the Browns and Colt McCoy.
Reasons Browns will draft him: Oklahoma State WR Justin Blackmon, is big, strong, has great hands, and runs great routes. He would be the Browns #1 receiver from day 1, starting opposite Greg Little. Blackmon is excellent at gaining yards after the catch, which is a key to the west coast offense.
Reason Browns won't draft him: Despite all of the appove he doesn't possess elite speed. Not thought to be as good as AJ Green or Julio Jones who were top 10 picks last year. Drop-off from him to the next tier of receivers is not as great as at other positions.
Likelihood the Browns take him: Medium to high. He will fill a glaring need, give the Browns a legitimate #1 receiver, and take pressure off Colt McCoy.
