2017 NFL Mock Draft 11.0: Backup plans in case teams miss out on the best first-round fits
What’s a team to do when it misses out on that premier pass rusher or lock-down cornerback in the draft? This mock is all about helping to form those backup plans.
In addition to each team’s current projected Round 1 pick in the mock draft below, you’ll find a mid-to-late-round replacement option for the player selected.

The Browns are on the clock.
