As the NFL s biggest spotlight shined on Cleveland last weekend for the 2021 NFL Draft, the league, Cleveland Browns and other partnerships in the area went to work on maximizing the massive platform created by the draft to improve the Northeast Ohio community.
From NFL commissioner Roger Goodell assisting in groundbreaking efforts for a new football field, to Dee Haslam promoting the goals of the Cleveland Browns Foundation s Stay in the Game! Keep Learning, Every Day Network, the draft provided a monumental opportunity for the Cleveland community to create new campaigns and attain progress in previous initiatives, many of which were slowed in the past year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Kansas City Chiefs legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer Will Shields is scheduled to make the team’s selections on night two of the NFL Draft this Friday, April 30. This year’s draft is being held in Cleveland, Ohio.
Night two includes the second and third rounds and the Chiefs hold the 63rd overall pick in the second round and the 94th overall pick in the third round.
We will see if they still hold both picks after night one when the Chiefs are currently set to pick 31st in the first round. A first-round trade-up would likely require at least one of those night-two picks.
