The Cleveland Browns "floated" the possibility of acquiring Russell Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks for the top pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.

The Seahawks were starting at another extension for Wilson at the time.

Wilson currently has a no-trade clause and is contract will expire after the 2023 season.

Some close to the situation believe Wilson will eventually be traded.

Trevor Lawrence, Penei Sewell Headline Mel Kiper's 2021 Big Board

May 5, 2020 4:30 PM

Mel Kiper Jr. unsurprisingly has Trevor Lawrence as his top projected prospect for the 2021 NFL Draft.

Lawrence will be a true junior in 2020 and is widely expected to be the top overall pick in 2021.

Oregon offensive tackle Penei Sewell ranks second, followed by Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields, LSU wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase and Penn State outside linebacker Micah Parsons.

Trey Lance of North Dakota State is the third quarterback on the list at 15th overall.
