Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Denzel Ward is exactly the player Cleveland needs in 2018
The No. 4-overall pick proved why he is a perfect fit for the Browns.

“The speed of the game is a little faster, but I do not pay attention too much to that and I do not think it really affected me. I was fine. I was only a little nervous. I was more excited than anything going into it.”

It was a pleasant surprise for Ohio State fans when the Cleveland Browns took former Buckeye cornerback Denzel Ward with the fourth-overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. For the rest of the football world, however, the pick looked like a reach. Undoubtedly a first-round talent, Ward was generally considered to be more on the level of the No. 10 overall pick. Many critiqued the Browns--who had taken Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield No. 1 overall in another questionable selection--for not taking former NC State defensive end Bradley Chubb, who was taken with the next pick by the Broncos. However, if the first weekend of NFL football is any indication, the Browns made the right decision in taking Ward.
Despite coming off an 0-16 season, there is a resurgence of hope for Cleveland football, with most analysts predicting that the Browns will win at least a few games in 2018 (it can only go up from here, after all). Still, starting the season with what has been a lopsided rival in a downpour seemed a poor way to spark the miraculous comeback. Nonetheless, the Browns managed the unthinkable versus the Steelers: A tie.
