For some time, the intrigue on this pick has fizzled with Cleveland locking in on the two-way Heisman winner from Colorado. Perhaps the biggest intrigue is how they will deploy Hunter in 2025, as well as the long-term plans for his primary position. This offense is desperate for playmakers, and he can fill that role immediately.
While the need for a cornerback is not all that pressing at the moment, it's still something Hunter can offer in sub-packages from Day One. Considering how difficult it is to get your hands on a top-notch cover man, I certainly would think the Browns would try to find time to develop him on that side of the ball with the idea of that being his long-term home.
Still, it could go either way. He's that kind of athlete and with Hunter
insisting on wanting to play on both sides of the ball, Cleveland better have a plan to accommodate those wishes when they turn in his card. After that, the next question will be whether or not someone (possibly a quarterback) slides low enough on draft night to warrant Andrew Berry moving up from pick #33 back into the first round.
