Hindsight is always 20/20 and Gregg Williams recounted a story from the Browns' 2018 war room that nearly saw the franchise make a massive mistake.

Friday kicks off day two of the NFL Draft , one of the most pivotal days for both NFL Franchises and the players that they are selecting. Teams have a chance to put their team on an upward trajectory or dig themselves into a massive hole.has sure had its fair share of blunders on Draft weekend and according to former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams , he helped stop what could have been one of the worst in 2017., fell just outside the top 10 when he was selected by Houston with the 12th pick.

The story of how the Browns 2 hours before the draft were going to take Mitch Trubisky over Myles Garrett & it took Gregg Williams threatening the front office is still wild 😂Trubisky's career has been just north of solid. He led the Bears to two playoff appearances but has become a quarterback journeyman.

During the pre-draft process, teams evaluate every player that's available, especially the team with the No. 1 overall pick. Cleveland's due diligence turned to serious interest in the UNC product, according Williams, so much so that the debate over their selection went all the way up until two hours before the draft.

At that point, Williams had had enough. When it got to crunch time,he exclaimed to the members of the room,"I'm going to have a press conference after this and let them know about the conversations around here about not taking Myles Garrett."Thankfully, William's threat helped result in Cleveland taking Garrett and hitting on a generational, hall-of-fame-type talent.

The 2024 draft won't likely yield that contentious of a draft-night discussion, especially with where Cleveland is picking. But if it does, hopefully, Cleveland finds itself on the right side of history again.Jameis Winston: His Farewell Video And Expressions Of Gratitude, Fond Memories, And Love For New Orleans, Saints, And Who Dat Nation
