The Browns hold the 130th, 147th, and 148th selections in the 5th round. With the 130th pick the team should select RB Deshawn Wynn from Florida. Wynn is a large back at over 230lbs and runs in the sub 4.5s. His lack of production in college was a result of the scheme he was in. Wynn should supplant Lewis as the starting RB next season assuming he can stay injury free.
With the 147th selection the team should pick WR Roy Hall from Ohio State. I originally had Hall pegged as an undrafted steal but his amazing performance at the Ohio State pro day shot him into the draft. Hall, at 6'3 230lbs, ran 40s in the low 4.4s to high 4.3s. However he spent his entire career stuck behind 1st round talents like Ted Ginn, Tony Gonzalez, and Santonio Holmes. Hall will no doubt have a much better pro career than collegiate. He is a fine blocker on the perimeter and a great leaper in traffic. He can become an immediate goal line threat and could eventually be bulked up in to a TE.
With the 148th pick the team should select ILB Jon Abbate from Wake Forrest. Abbate is a Zach Thomas type that lacks the measureables but just stands out on film. In most Wake Forrest games he seems to be making every tackle. Abbate will be a productive pro despite whatever his measureables say.
