After trading away three picks before the start of the 2012 NFL Draft to pick running back Trent Richardson, the Browns are reacquiring picks.

The Browns sent pick No. 67 to the Denver Broncos, who picked San Diego State running back Ronnie Hillman. Denver sent picks 87 and 120 to Cleveland.

The Browns are now scheduled to have seven picks on Saturday: 100, 120, 160, 204, 205, 245 and 247. Several of those picks are compensation picks that can't be traded. They may also add another selection if quarterback Colt McCoy is traded before the weekend is over.

The Browns have currently added Richardson, quarterback Brandon Weeden and offensive tackle Mitchell Schwartz. After No. 87, look for the Browns to add depth on the defensive line and linebacker positions.
