Cleveland Browns snagged a potential first-round talent, Denzel Boston, to pair with first-round pick KC Concepcion, revamping their wide receiver room with back-to-back picks.
The offensive overhaul continued for the Cleveland Browns on the second night of the NFL Draft.
After Andrew Berry used the team's two first-round picks to address the team's biggest needs at offensive tackle and wide receiver, Cleveland's general manager doubled-down on rebuilding the wide receiver room by selecting Washington wideout Denzel Boston with the No. 39 pick.
Boston was regarded by many as a first-round talent who managed to slip into Friday night. As the second round began with a heavy run on defensive players, Boston continued to slide to Cleveland.
The 22-year-old spent his entire college career with the Huskies, breaking out in 2024 when he racked up 834 yards and nine touchdowns on 63 receptions. He followed it up this past fall with a 62 reception campaign but delivered even more production, with 881 yards and 11 scores, a figure that ranked 9th in all of the FBS.
In 2024, he received Honorable Mention All-Big Ten recognition, following it up this past season by earning Third Team All-Big Ten Conference. At 6-2, 212 pounds, his ability attack teams vertically and win contested catches is well-documented.
Boston will instantly factor into the Browns wide receiver room and slots as an outside threat at the X or the Z spot. He joins Texas A&M wideout KC Concepcion, who Berry selected at 24th overall in round one to form a new, young dynamic duo at wide receiver.
Along with Concepcion, Berry used the team's first selection after trading back from No. 6 overall to No. 9 overall to select Utah tackle Spencer Fano. He'd expected to be the team's starting left tackle.
Cleveland still holds eight additional picks across the remainder of draft weekend. That haul of selections includes picks 70 and 74 in the third round, which the team will also use on Friday night. The Browns Day 3 collection of picks consists of Pick 107 in the fourth round, three fifth round selections at 146, 148 (from the Kansas City Chiefs) and 149, pick 206 in the sixth round and pick 248 in the seventh round.
