Heckert stated from day 1, this team will be built through the draft. When he took over, there was 0 talent on this team aside from Joe Thomas. In his first draft, he had 6 picks, and he yielded 4 bonafide starters. ( Taylor, Sheard, Little, Pinkston ) and he fleeced Atlanta for moving up to 6. This year, he has/had 13 picks. Browns fans should be giddy that Heckert is in charge of those picks. The guy can draft. You need even more evidence ? Look at his drafts in Philadelphia.
