On this Gotta Watch The Tape, Scott Patsko, Ellis Williams and Doug Lesmerises start moving through Browns opponents and analyzing them through a Cleveland lens. First up, the Baltimore Ravens.

Scott examines the Baltimore defense, what the Ravens lost in their pass rush in free agency, what they still do well on the back end, and what to expect from Baker Mayfield in handling Baltimore's blitzing in 2021.

Then Ellis Williams looks at the Baltimore offense and the signings of offensive lineman Kevin Zeitler and receiver Sammy Watkins. Is the Baltimore offensive line trending up or down? Is Watkins the kind of receiver that will actually help out Lamar Jackson? And how much better equipped are the Browns to deal with Jackson throwing in the middle of the field after their offseason additions?

What Baltimore does always matters in Cleveland, and you'll know much more about that after this Gotta Watch The Tape from cleveland.com.

Tuesday brings the latest edition of our Hey, Mary Kay! Orange and Brown Talk. Mary Kay Cabot answers questions from our Football Insider subscribers.

Questions include:

Will the Browns sign Jadeveon Clowney or another DE before the draft and, if they do, does that mean they take a cornerback at No. 26? (0:56)

Is it too harsh to say the Browns swung and missed on the big-time edge rushers in free agency? (6:11)

Aren’t the Browns still awfully thin at linebacker? (8:10)

Would the Browns consider signing Geno Atkins? (12:25)

Why does anyone care what Hue Jackson has to say? (15:27)

Do you think the Browns will target a quick-twitch receiver in the draft, even with Odell Beckham Jr. returning? (23:10)

Why haven’t we heard from Grant Delpit? What’s the latest on his recovery? (25:56)

Which Browns coach’s tell-all book would you read? (27:47)

Jeff Lloyd is joined by SI's Pete Smith. The NFL is going to 17 games, and that's a win for everyone, but the players. Today was a big day for pro days at the edge position, it didn't help the Browns in landing one at 26 though. Questions on the 49ers trade up, the Dolphins continue to do good work, the Eagles? it's gonna be awhile. #Browns #BakerMayfield #NickChubb #Odellbeckham #MylesGarrett #DenzelWard #JohnJohnsonIII
