What at first seemed like a surprise choice by the Browns in the 2008 draft, especially since they had only four picks to spend when the draft started, might not be such a surprise after all.
After trading with Dallas to move up 18 slots in the fourth round for the 104th overall pick to fill a need at inside linebacker with Beau Bell, the Browns swung another deal with the Cowboys seven picks later. But instead of reaching for a cornerback to fill another need, general manager Phil Savage grabbed Missouri tight end Marvin Tucker.
Tucker is a pass-catching tight end, not a workhorse blocker. That's why the pick raised eyebrows at first. Obviously, Savage had a sense of urgency.
