Browns Draft Fano, Fortify Line with Versatile Tackle

About this episode

The Cleveland Browns selected Spencer Fano in the 2026 NFL Draft to address their tackle needs and traded for Tytus Howard to enhance their offensive line.

The Cleveland Browns selected Utahs Spencer Fano with the ninth pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, securing their top tackle need early. Fano, who started 36 games in college, primarily at right tackle, is expected to transition to left tackle immediately. The Browns traded a fifth-round pick for Tytus Howard, who will man right tackle, filling the void left by Jack Conklin. Howards versatility allows for line flexibility. Projections have Fano at left tackle, with Austin Barber as backup, Elgton Jenkins at left guard, Parker Brailsford challenging at center, Zion Johnson at right guard, and Howard on the right. Dawand Jones is set to be the swing tackle. If Fano and Brailsford perform well in camp, this young, versatile front five could dominate, setting the Browns up for success in the long term.
