As phase two of voluntary OTA’s restart today, there’s been some Browns news. By that I mean real news.

Salary Cap. As I’ve been saying, the Browns had about $8.9 million added to their cap because of the post June 1st cuts to Dalvin Tomlinson and Juan Thornhill. According to Over The Cap, the team now stands at $18.2 million under the cap. They could still create room by restructuring Denzel Ward and/or Ethan Pocic, but that probably won’t happen until July. Defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo is still a candidate to be traded of released. DL Alex Wright is in the last year of his rookie contract at $3.4 million, so a decision must be made on him. And Greg Newsome and Martin Emerson are both in the last year of their contracts. No word on Nick Chubb. He either will sign with the Browns and accept being RB3 or wait until an injury to a running back in training camp, whether it be with the Browns or another team. The market for veteran running backs is way down this year. Finally, an extension for TE David Njoku is expected this summer.

Joel Bitonio. It was refreshing to hear a veteran Browns player expressing optimism for the plan on offense. He has faith the team will play the best quarterback in 2025 and not focus on developing young talent. He likes the new offensive line coach Mike Bloomgren and hinted the offense will be similar to the 2020 offense. If you recall that year head coach Kevin Stefanski let the offense loose, mainly because the Al Wood’s defense couldn’t hold a lead no matter how big. QB Baker Mayfield threw for four touchdowns in a half twice, the first half of the Titan’s game and the second half of the second Bengals game. That year Mayfield threw for 3563 yards, 28 touchdowns, eight interceptions and a 95.9 QBR. I’m all for the 2020 offense.

Pro Football Focus. They rated all 32 NFL rosters, and the Browns came in last. I’m a fan of PFF, but this is ridiculous. Their reasoning was because of the offense. Yes, we all know it was terrible in 2024, but last, really? They ignore the fact the Browns signed two offensive linemen who were high in their ratings, OT Cornelius Lucas and OL Teven Jenkins. The Browns drafted two great running backs and one hell of a tight end. Yes, the quarterback needs to be ironed out, but the odds favor the Browns finding a player who can help them win.

Myles Garrett. Shock of shocks, Garrett wasn’t at the voluntary OTA’s. He’s not a team leader. Blah, blah blah. Garrett is a team leader like Flacco is a mentor. The Browns usually have four defensive ends on their final 53-man roster. Currently there are two locks, Garrett and Isaiah McGuire. Contenders for the other two spots are Okoronkwo, Julian Okwara and Joe Tryon-Shoyinka. Tryon-Shoyinka has looked very good in OTA’s. Others include UDFA Adin Huntington, Cameron Thomas and Jim Schwartz favorite Sam Kamara. The last three are practice squad candidates but keep an eye on Huntington. Basically, the Browns need to figure out the last two spots and the best way to do that is to give the players as many snaps in OTA’s as possible. Garrett doesn’t need to be there until he’s supposed to be there. I’m not worried and either should you. He’ll be there when it matters, and all his teammates know that. Stay safe and Go Browns.

The Browns off-season program begins again today, so be prepared for video on social media. Also be prepared for the continued argument on who’s having a better camp, Dillion Gabriel or Shedeur Sanders. I think I’ll start an argument on who’s better, Joe Flacco or Kenny Pickett to see if anyone notices. To me, I really don’t care which one does better, just find a quarterback who can win games and get the Browns to the playoffs. In 2023, the Browns won because they had four quarterbacks who could play in Kevin Stefanski’s offense. In 2024 they had zero quarterbacks who could play in any system. The team scrapped their entire offense for one signal caller thinking he could revive his franchise QB career. It didn’t work. It failed miserably. I understand why they did it. The last game Deshaun Watson played in 2023 was one hell of a game. The Browns trailed most of the game by at least fourteen points on the road against the Ravens. In the second half the team went on three long scoring drives including the game winning field goal with no time left on the clock. Hell, they even missed an extra point, which usually is a kiss of death for the Browns and still won the game.

Like I said, I understand the change in offense. Did I agree with it? I was more wait and see. By the time 2024 was over, I no longer wanted to look. Now the team enters 2025 with a true quarterback competition. In Flacco, the team knows what it has, a veteran who can work in Stefanski’s offense. The question is was 2023 a fluke? The ball bounced the Browns way that year. From opponents missing game winning field goals to back-to-back pass interference calls in the end-zone leading to a fourth & goal game winning rushing touchdown. 2023 was magical, but it ended with a thud in the playoffs. The Browns traded for Kenny Pickett, so they see something there. He used his senior season at Pittsburg to parlay that into a first round pick by the Steelers. He was 15-10 as a starter in an offense that was almost nonexistent. Before Pickett the offense was whatever Big Ben dreamed up. In college Pickett ran basically the same offense as the Browns will run in 2025. Again, I’m in wait and see mode.

If the Browns can find their future quarterback between Gabriel or Sanders that would be the perfect situation. A few things to remember, in all the off-season programs, the pace will be quicker. The team is trying to get in as many reps prior to the summer months to get both rookies used to the speed of the NFL. Who takes the first snaps, or which two quarterbacks are working in tandem doesn’t matter. It’s all about getting in as many snaps in as possible. Second, I know a lot of fans are already planning trading Pickett to the Saints for a certain wide receiver. I’ve been told the Saints aren’t interested. Besides, the Browns want to wait and see what they have in Pickett. Finally, no one knows who the starting QB will be game one. It’s way too early for that speculation. All I know is, the Browns will keep three quarterbacks on their final 53-man roster and none of the four they have in camp right now will make it to the practice squad. This year’s training camp is going to be a true competition. Stay safe and Go Browns.

Currently the rookies and the veterans are in Berea working out. There’s no media access, which is good. According to those, who are reliable, both rookie quarterbacks have done well. Let’s not say one is better than the other at this point in the game. With the schedule release last week, people are trying to speculate when one of the rookies will start. I would prefer game one in 2026. If that happens, the Browns will probably have had a good season in 2025. Imagine finding your starting quarterback in the fourth or fifth round. Then add to that, a starting running back duo who are on rookie contracts for four years. By the way, for those of you who think the Browns are tanking this year, I’ve been told that’s not the feeling in the building. Yes, as of right now, the schedule is the second hardest in the league, but that’s as of right now, in May. I’ll wait till the league gets in the doldrums of training camp to decide. Remember last year they had the second easiest schedule. Things always change.

The new stadium in Brook Park is going to happen no matter how stupid the local politicians behave. The Haslam Sports Group will get the funding from the state for infrastructure and by 2029 the Browns will be playing in “Jimmy world.” They’ll have shovels in the ground by next month. The local politicians haven’t done anything to improve the lakefront for thirty years, why do you think they’ll start now. They all should be replaced for incompetence.

I’m still waiting to see the contracts of the two new safeties. The Browns, according to Over The Cap, are $17.6 million under the cap. Both Damontae Kazee and Rayshawn Jenkins should both receive one-year contracts for the veteran minimum of $1,255,000. The team will have about $10 million added back to their cap space after June 1 because of Dalvin Tomlinson and Juan Thornhill. If more cap space is needed, the Browns can restructure Denzel Ward and Ethan Pocic. Remember a restructure is not a pay cut. Also, only the top 51 salaries count against the cap.

Back to the QB discussion, it’s my opinion that Kenny Pickett will probably start training camp as number one. They traded for him, so that’s what I’m basing it on. All four have been told it’s a true competition and nothing will be assumed. This team needs to focus on winning, not quarterback development. If the coaching staff feels one of the rookies can win right out of the gate, then they’ll start. Winning is the goal in 2025. Stay safe and Go Browns.

Now that the NFL draft is over, the Browns still need to address the wide receiver and safety positions in free agency. Here’s link to an article I wrote with my suggestions, https://www.ffsn.com/the-fanatical-elfz-network/cleveland-browns-remaining-team-needs-in-free-agency/. The safety position is more urgent in my opinion. There are still plenty of players available.

Today the Browns made the signing of wide receiver Diontae Johnson official. He’s been a problem for his last two teams, but he can still get separation and run very precise routes. It’s a low price, potentially high reward signing. If it doesn’t work, the Browns will just cut him. That’s why I think the Browns should still add a veteran wide receiver. The team could also try and trade for a WR. Some potential candidates are Alec Pierce, Colts, Courtland Sutton, Broncos, Christian Watson, Packers and Noah Brown, Commanders.

The Browns have the draft capital to trade. They currently have two firsts, one second, one third, one fourth, one fifth, one sixth and two sevenths for 2026. Nine total so a trade wouldn’t be out of the question. The Browns roster is at 81 out of 90 players, so there’s room.

According to Over The Cap https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/cleveland-browns Cleveland is currently $16.6 million under the salary cap of $279,200,000. On June 2, the team will have about $10 million added back for the designated post-June 1 cuts of Juan Thornhill and Dalvin Tomlinson. So they’re sitting very well salary cap wise. I still wouldn’t be surprised if they restructure the contracts of Denzel Ward and Ethan Pocic. Browns GM Andrew Berry loves to carryforward any unused cap money to next year. That’s one of the reasons the Browns can sustain their roster, by using all the rules of the current CBA.

On Friday May 9, the Browns rookies will report to Berea to begin rookie minicamp. On May 12, they start the Rookie Development Program. OTAs are scheduled for May 27-28, and May30, June 3-4 and June 6 and June 16-19. The media crush on Friday is going to be unbelievable. Everyone will want to see Shedeur Sanders. This is going to be one crazy off-season. Stay safe and Go Browns.

The Cleveland Browns 2025 draft is complete and now everyone thinks it’s necessary to slap a grade on it. I’ll wait till the current draft class actually plays. I’m a stickler about that. All in all, the Browns drafted very good players. The players drafted with the first four picks will play and contribute to the Browns 2025 season, barring injury. Of the last three picks one will definitely play and the other two will make the roster with the potential to play. Cleveland got value at every pick especially the last one. No one and I mean no one saw that coming. I’ve let it be know I wasn’t a fan of Shedeur Sanders, but that was at pick number two, number 33, number 36 and number 67. I would’ve been fine with picking him at number 94, but I understand the reasoning for taking Gabriel. Of course, many Browns fans flew off the handle because of it. Total meltdowns ensued all Friday night and Saturday morning. To be honest with you, I kind of enjoyed it. The media convinced the fan base they knew more then 32 NFL teams.

All these young men are of good character, and all will bring a higher level of talent to their positions. The knock on Sanders was he didn’t interview well. So what. The NFL is a good old boy network. I’m glad Andrew Berry saw the value of the pick. Let’s set one thing straight, Owner Jimmy Haslam had no control over the Sander’s pick. This was Andrew Berry’s pick. Don’t believe the crap that’s being so called reported. Haslam let the front office do their jobs. One last thing on the subject, Paul DePodesta provides analysis not opinions. He has no say on what happens with the Browns personnel. I blame that false reporting on Tony Grossi. He started it and never apologized for the hit job article he put out. If you want to listen to Grossi, just remember he wanted Sam Bradford over Myles Garrett and Sam Darnold over Baker Mayfield. Plus, he still can’t see the value of drafting Sanders in the fifth round. Go yell at some clouds Tony.

Next up we’ll finally get a true list of the undrafted rookie free agents the Browns have signed. Looking at the current information, I like three so far. Defensive tackle Adin Huntington, Tulane, offensive guard Dartanyan Tinsley, Cincinnati and my favorite safety Donovan McMillon, Pitt. All three could have been drafted. Next up is rookie camp, which starts May 9. After that, the next big date on the calendar is the NFL schedule release, which is May 14. I can’t wait to see who’s the Browns opening game opponent. I have the feeling the selection of Shedeur Sander will have some influence. Remember, when it comes to the NFL, it’s all about the money. Stay safe and Go Browns.

It’s finally here Browns fans, the NFL draft. I guess because the team hasn’t had a first round pick in the last three years, it seemed like this week would never get here. But it’s here at last. These last three days will be filled with probably the dumbest Cleveland takes you’ll read. Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk started us off yesterday with a rumor that some team will trade up to number two to pick QB Shedeur Sanders. In the article, Florio dismisses the rumor as “nutty” and says, “he’ll believe it when he sees it.” This way if it happens (and it won’t) he can say he had it first and if it doesn’t happen (it won’t) he can say he knew it was silly. That didn’t prevent ESPN Cleveland from reposting the story and asking for opinions thus providing more ad revenue for their twitter account.

By Thursday, you’ll see plenty of articles on social media proclaiming they know what the Browns are going to do with the number two pick. Or how the Browns are planning to trade back from number two. Or the team’s plans to trade back into the first round to get their quarterback. All this information will come from league sources or inside sources or team sources inside Berea. None of this is true. This front office does not leak, ever. As I always say, “the voices inside your head are nor reliable sources.” At this point the Cleveland front office has their draft board set and it’s probably been set since the Combine. Do they know for sure who they’re going to select? Nope. It’s pretty much a guarantee the Titans are going to take QB Cam Ward. They overpaid to strengthen the offensive line, and they were never connected to any of the free agent quarterbacks wandering the league landscape. Last year the Tennessee head coach Brian Callahan threw Titans starting QB Will Levin under the bus so many times, he still has tire marks on his butt.

In my opinion, after the Titans draft Ward, the Browns will have their choice of wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter or defensive end Abdul Carter. They’ll take as much of the clock necessary to listen to trade offers, they started to formulate at the Combine. But in the end, these two players are the best in the draft. One can change the direction of an NFL offense (no, Hunter will not play both ways) and the other can change the direction of an NFL defense. I’ve let it be known I’m for the Browns drafting Carter, but ether player will be fine by me. Both are great value at number two.

As for the rest of the first round, the media is pimping the notion the Browns will have to trade back into the first round to get their quarterback of the future. Not really. The only teams who might be interested in drafting a quarterback in the first round are New Orleans and Pittsburg. According to national reporter Benjamin Allbright, the Saints aren’t picking a QB at nine and there are reports out of Pittsburg that the Steelers won’t be taking a QB at 21 unless it’s Sanders. The Browns can afford to wait till the first pick in the second round to pick their QB of the future. Why waste draft capital when you don’t need to. Besides, this front office (Andrew Berry) in the last five years have shown no inclination to trade back into the first round. Have they asked other teams about it, sure. Have they asked the Titans about trading to number one even though it’s never happened in the history of the NFL draft, sure. It’s called due diligence. Could the Browns pass on a quarterback with the number 33 pick, sure. What happens on day two is determined by what happens on day one. So buckle up Browns fans, it’s going to be a long three days. Stay safe and Go Browns.

A week from Thursday, the NFL draft will begin, and the Browns will finally have a first-round draft pick. Since the season ended, the media and draft experts have been all over the board for the Browns. On Friday Cleveland brought back quarterback Joe Flacco, so the need to overdraft a QB at number two is no longer an option. The only exception would be if the Titans pass on Miami’s Cam Ward, and they aren’t passing on him. They’re in desperate need of a QB and taking the best quarterback in an average quarterback draft is right on point for them. The very first pick by a new GM leaves a mark forever, just ask Andrew Berry and Jedrick Wills.

Now it seems the consensus for the Browns with the first pick is WR/CB Travis Hunter. I’m a little apprehensive about Hunter due to his desire to play both ways in the league, which isn’t going to happen, his injury history, (missed fourteen games when he was at Jackson St.) and his size (six foot, 188 pounds). I still want the Browns to draft defensive end Adbul Carter. I know Browns fans are clamoring for more offense, but Carter and Garrett is too good to be true. Besides I watched what the Eagles defensive line did to Patrick Mahomes, and I want that for the Browns.

Just to get your minds on draftable players, here’s a list of players who the Browns have visited with in Berea, as of today.

Shedeur Sanders, QB, Travis Hunter, WR/DB, Abdul Carter, DE, Cam Ward, QB, Will Campbell, OT, Tez Johnson, WR, Tyler Shough, QB, Nick Martin, LB, Harold Fannin, TE, Isaiah Bond, WR, Deone Walker, DT, Quinshon Judkins, RB, Nic Scourton, DE, Mason Graham, DT, Elijah Arroyo, TE, Jalon Walker, LB/E, Jaxson Dart, QB, Jalen Milroe, QB, Omarr Norman-Lott, DT, Bhayshal Tuten, RB, Terrence Ferguson, TE, Jordan Hancock, DB, Cam Skattebo, RB and Tetairoa, McMillan, WR.

That’s twenty-six, they have thirty to use and might not use all of them, but that’s a lot of players on offense. Stay safe and GO Browns.

Everyone hears what they want to hear. Last week, defensive end Myles Garrett again made a comment on the quarterback plans of the Cleveland Browns. Previously, in an interview with Browns play-by-play man Andrew Siciliano, Myles hinted he knew who the Browns quarterback was going to be this year. Here’s the clip, https://x.com/Browns/status/1900653247032856737. Does Garrett really know who the quarterback is going to be? Or does he know what the planned intentions are. At this point, the Browns have no idea who they are going to draft at number two overall because the Titans haven’t drafted yet. That’s how this all works. Titans pick, then Browns pick, simple. The Cleveland media, who have completely let down Browns fans while also destroying their creditability, (a two for one deal), are currently throwing whatever they can at the wall. What’s disturbing is people believe them. Again, the Browns have no idea who they’re taking with the second pick overall. So why do you think Myles Garrett has the definite answer on who the quarterback is going to be in 2025?

Here’s the quote that’s getting all the run this past week: “Any team that’s going to go far needs a quarterback and one that’s young, can learn and is willing to be patient with the process.” Of course, all the have to draft a quarterback at number two people screamed, they’re taking a quarterback at number two. Read the last part of that quote, “can learn and is willing to be patient with the process.” Willing to be patient. If an NFL team is drafting a quarterback that high up in the draft, the quarterback better start day one. Willing to be patient with the process. Patience tells me a rookie quarterback who’s going to sit on the bench and learn. Who’s he going to learn from? A veteran quarterback.

I’m not going to push away the Kirk Cousin rumors. I know he was outside Cleveland this past week, but the Browns front office was elsewhere and they’re too smart to tamper. He was there visiting friends and one of his friends just happens to be the right tackle of the Cleveland Browns Jack Conklin. This is still not tampering. I would dismiss all this, but the rumor of Cousins going to the Browns will not go away. It makes sense for Cousins to wait until draft weekend to choose his next team. Wait to see who they draft and if it’s the right situation to wave his no-trade clause. He doesn’t want the same situation he had in Atlanta, waiting to be replaced by a rookie during the year. “Can learn and is willing to be patient with the process.” The Browns can sell Cousins on starting for a year and letting the rookie quarterback (who isn’t the second pick overall) sit and learn. Cousins builds towards one last big contract (something he’s very good at) and the Browns get the process they desire. Simple.

Finally, this front office stresses best value with any draft pick. They let the draft come to them. They’ve been preparing for this draft for a year and a half. They spent the entire month of January in Berea from 7:00am to 7:00pm running every draft scenario known to man. They are ready. But until Tennessee decides what to do at number one, the second pick will is still unknown. Stay safe and Go Browns.

I can’t believe we’re about thirty days away from the NFL draft and we have some of the dumbest arguments going on between Browns fans on the social media. I know the Browns need a quarterback and I know Browns fans are great at pretzel logic on wanting a quarterback. But this draft isn’t it. Don’t get me wrong, if Cam Ward is available at the number two pick, the Browns will draft him, but any other QB at two is a reach. A drastic reach. In 2017 everyone said, “you have to draft a quarterback.” with the number one overall pick. The draft experts said Mitch Trubisky was the next franchise quarterback, while Myles Garrett was the best player in the draft. Tough choice, Garrett or Trubisky. I’m glad the Browns didn’t overdraft a QB.

They did try and trade back up to get some guy named Mahomes, but the Chiefs beat them to it. As I recall, there were three quarterbacks considered as first round talents. Trubisky, Mahomes and someone named Watson. The draft experts didn’t like Mahomes because he played in the Big Twelve Conference. No defense, every offense lines up in the shotgun, NFL quarterbacks have to be under center so they can turn their backs to the defense. Deshaun Watson wasn’t considered to be NFL ready because he was a “running quarterback.” Maybe he should tryout as a wide receiver. Cleveland did have a great first round draft that year. After Garrett, they drafted safety Jabrill Peppers at pick 25 and tight end David Njoku at pick 29. Bottom line, the Browns knew Trubisky wasn’t the answer at number one, went with the most talented player, tried to get back in the first round to get Mahomes and then filled out their first round with two great players. Now, before you say the name DeShone Kiser, I know he was taken in the second round on the recommendation of head coach Hue Jackson, (Mr. 1-31). Consider the source. The QB whisperer, except no one can hear you when you whisper.

Move to 2025. The Browns need a quarterback, but this draft is a bad quarterback draft. So let’s overdraft an average quarterback. Sheduer Sanders is not a top five pick. He’s not even a top ten pick. He’s a mid-twenty pick. The Browns will not overdraft a player. You don’t draft an average player in the top ten, just to draft a quarterback. Browns fans need to not listen to so called experts who are presenting opinions as analysis. The Browns front office does not leak any information. They are high on quarterback Cam Ward and defensive end Adbul Carter. No one knows what the clown show in Nashville is going to do with the first pick. If the Titans, or whoever picks number one doesn’t take Can Ward, he’ll be a Brown. If Ward is gone the Browns will take Adbul Carter at number two. And finally, no, the Browns aren’t going to trade up to number one to take Ward. They’re in win now mode, so why take a QB who’s going to sit on the bench in 2025? Stay safe, ignore the stupid and Go Browns.

Over the course of this year, the Cleveland media and some in the national media have reached the point absurdity. It started with the season ending news conferences by Browns GM Andrew Berry and head coach Kevin Stefanski. As is the annual tradition, neither said anything the media wanted to hear, because they never say anything. Surprise. The Myles Garrett drama was really simple to figure out, he wasn’t going to be traded because of the potential destroying of the team’s salary cap. When media members don’t or don’t want to understand one of the most important parts of the league, they say stupid things. Every team in the NFL functions under the same financial limitations. Some teams take advantage of every benefit in the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) and some don’t. Since Berry and his staff have been running the Browns, the team has used what is allowed to continue to maintain salary cap stability. They Spend more than $50 million more on the roster than any other team. You call them nerds all you want, but this is how the NFL works.

Some of the imaginary trade proposals by imaginary league GMs bordered on insanity. Some moved closer to stupidity. Garrett didn’t help himself by going on a media campaign to push his case, which proved he had no leverage. Stefanski, Berry and team owner Jimmy Haslam held their ground and insisted Garrett wasn’t going anywhere. When Garrett’s side leaked the news that the owner wouldn’t meet with the player, the Cleveland media made ass’s out themselves by claiming it was a “bad look” for the Browns. No, a team owner should never involve themselves in the daily business of the team. That’s why you hire general managers. A NFL owner should only smile and wave to the fans and sign the checks. That’s it.

Leaking the Haslam news was the last desperate attempt to force something prior to free agency beginning that was never going to happen, a trade. Two days later, Garrett signs the extension he and the team were working on prior to the season ending. Great, now everyone is happy, right? Nope. The media tried to push the narrative the contract makes him easier to trade. Or he’ll be gone in a couple of years. Or the team still sucks, so what’s the difference. Or they should’ve traded him anyway. Immediately after the news last Sunday, local media members started complaining Garrett hadn’t issued a statement yet. Well guys, the start of free agency was the next day, Monday, and the team was a little busy.

On Friday, the media finally got its chance. A Myles Garrett news conference. Of course, the focus quickly turns to the decor his agent set up, toy dinosaurs and cupcakes. Here we go. It’s the team’s fault; they’re an unserious franchise. Or maybe the agent used the decorations because that’s what their client wanted? The man just made the agency a crap load of money, he gets whatever he wants. Of course, he was late, when is comes to players, these things never start on time. Prior to the news conference, reporter Jason Lloyd reported Garrett was always late to team meetings and skips mandatory team events. Wrong. After Garrett signed, Lloyd concluded Haslam was a bad owner because the way he solves problems is by throwing money at them. See my above-mentioned description of what a team owner should do. Someone in the Browns office peed in Lloyd’s cereal, because he’s been on an anti-Browns binge for a while now. The question-and-answer period really didn’t provide any earth-shattering news because after it was over, the media was still talking about the toy dinosaurs and the cupcakes.

The real news came later that afternoon when Garrett appeared on Andrew Siciliano’s podcast and confirmed he knows who the next Browns quarterback is going to be, and he agrees with the plan. Here’s the link, https://x.com/Browns/status/1900653247032856737. Now, before you go off the deep end and get your hopes up for certain players, in my opinion this confirms what I’ve been saying, the Browns gave Garrett a general idea on what the plan is moving forward. They probably gave him a list of names and assured him the QB problem was going to be solved soon. The Browns don’t have a trade with Tennessee, they don’t know who they are drafting, or they don’t have a secret deal with Russell Wilson or Kirk Cousins. They have a plan, and they have options. If there was trade for the number one pick, the Titan’s would’ve leaked it already. The Browns will know who they are drafting after the first pick is chosen. Wilson is going to take his time to decide, as he should. By the way, the Wilson visit went well, he impressed with the team and their openness. The Cousin’s situation will be determined on Monday when he’s due a $10 million bonus. Stay tuned.

Just a reminder to choose who you believe very carefully. The Cleveland media right now is at their worst and it won’t get any better anytime soon. Stay safe and Go Browns.
