"Browns fans, please don't let your GM mess this up" - Ex-Eagles RB urges Cleveland to not pass on Travis Hunter in draft

Former Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy believes that the Cleveland Browns should select Colorado Buffaloes wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter in the 2025 NFL draft.

On the popular show 'The Facility' on Tuesday, McCoy said the Browns need to take Hunter if they decide against selecting his Buffaloes teammate, quarterback Shedeur Sanders.

​

​

"If you don't decide to get Shedeur, you gotta take Travis Hunter… Moving back when you got one of the best players you've ever seen in football, you can't miss out on that, even if he's not what we think he is… Browns fans, please don't let your GM mess this up."

McCoy then made clear how special a talent Hunter was on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.

​

​

"You finally got something special that we haven't seen before. Myles Garrett was a great pickup, we've seen great guys like that. You need someone who is a generational talent. Travis Hunter is your guy. Take him, please."

Hunter is one of the most unique players in recent football memory due to his ability to play as a wide receiver and a cornerback.

Travis Hunter 2025 NFL draft projection

Hunter is a complete prospect heading into the 2025 NFL draft. He is extremely quick and agile, has great hands, can create after the catch and has a high football IQ.

Hunter had 96 receptions for 1,258 yards and 16 total touchdowns last season. He also had four interceptions and one forced fumble.

In Daniel Jeremiah's mock draft 3.0, Hunter was projected to No. 4 to the New England Patriots, with the Browns tipped to select Penn State Nittany Lions EDGE Abdul Carter.
