Sashi Brown on Myles Garrett & Browns' draft

Browns GM Sashi Brown dishes on selecting Myles Garrett with the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, Cleveland's QB situation, the decision to draft Caleb Brantley and more.

Mike Rodak ESPN Staff Writer 

The Bills hosted TE Gary Barnidge on a visit Wednesday, the team announced. Barnidge, 31, started 16 games last season for Cleveland, catching 55 passes for 612 yards and two touchdowns. If signed, he would slide into the No. 2 tight end role behind Charles Clay. The Bills' other tight ends are Nick O'Leary, Logan Thomas and Blake Annen.
