When it was all said and done, the Browns decided to stay at No. 10 overall and draft an offensive tackle. They had their pick of Meckhi Becton, Jedrick Wills, or Tristan Wirfs. Andrew Berry’s first pick as Browns general manager was Wills.
Here is how social media reacted to the Browns first round selection.
Jedrick Wills Jr. led all tackles in a freaky draft class in big-time blocks (basically pancakes) last season. The dude flies around the field like a tight end #Browns

The #Browns drafted the best OT in the draft.

Jedrick Wills is the best tackle in this draft in my opinion. He plays with technique, he's nasty, he can unlock his hips and drive flesh off the spot and he's got basketball feet to set out to speed and redirect inside. Rare to find college tackles who can pass pro & drive block

Congrats, Baker: You just got the offensive tackle considered by many the best in the draft. Jedrick Wills Jr can play left, Jack Conklin right. Now, Baker, fewer commercials, more time to throw, more production than last season.

Browns new OT Jedrick Wills Jr. career at Alabama:

This was always going to be a tackle for Cleveland. Might have gotten the best one in the draft at no. 10. Jedrick Wills EXPLODES off the screen in pass protection. Just crazy smooth movement skills. The Jason Peters comparison is fitting to me.

#Browns pick Jedrick Wills' play gives off a Donald Penn vibe. Dude is a legit bully up front.

Initial reaction: The #Browns didn’t outsmart themselves. They addressed their biggest need and got in the words of @dpbrugler the best tackle in the draft.
