Reports of top-30 visits continue to leak out around the NFL and Saturday brought confirmation that the Browns hosted another offensive lineman recently.

Former TCU Horned Frogs offensive lineman Brandon Coleman has reportedly met with not only the Browns but also the Eagles, Bengals, Cowboys and Chargers. Coleman is scheduled to meet with the Commanders next week as well.

Despite not being one of my top 50 offensive linemen, Coleman's versatility makes sense as to why he has such appeal to numerous teams in the league. He has experience starting for the Horned Frogs at both left tackle and left guard. In recent times, he has seen his draft stock soar and some experts believe that he could go as early as day two of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Coleman is listed at 6'4" and 313 pounds. His wide frame combined with length is an asset when trying to hold up against elite pass rushers. Coleman is pretty strong and flashes strong traits in pass protection.

When looking at Coleman, many would expect that he would perhaps be best inside at guard and be dominant in the run game. Instead, Coleman's lack of a mean streak in the run game and his struggles against counter moves may limit his ceiling at guard. Edge rushers that can dip and bend well around the edge give him some troubles, but he will still likely be more successful on the outside.

If Coleman makes it to day three or happens to be available as an undrafted free agent, then the Browns would be wise to explore adding Coleman. Reaching for him on day two would be shocking from a Cleveland standpoint.
