    The Cleveland Browns march into this month's NFL draft minus the second-round pick they used to grab wide receiver Josh Gordon in last year's supplemental draft. That has led to plenty of speculation that the team is looking to wheel and deal in order to recoup the pick.

    Browns CEO Joe Banner downplayed that Thursday, saying he won't desperately chase a trade-down scenario to regain the pick without getting fair-market value, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Plain Dealer. Pegged as a team looking to shop its No. 6 pick, Banner did acknowledge, "If we got offered something that would make us a better team, we'd make the trade."
