The Browns' interest in Thomas is obvious. Should the team continue to break in third-round pick Cody Kessler or use one of their first-round picks in the 2017 draft to select the quarterback of the future, having a steady presence at left tackle is paramount. While the rest of the offensive line struggles, the team can at least rest assured knowing that the traditional blind side is in the hands of a capable veteran who is eager to dispense advice and understands the peaks and valleys of playing in Cleveland.
