The Browns are scouring the trade market for a wide receiver, according to Tony Grossi of ESPN.com (Twitter link).
While Cleveland boasts a clear starting combination of wideouts in Kenny Britt and Corey Coleman, the club’s depth chart beyond those top two is a bit sparse (and inexperienced), as the Browns’ other options include Ricardo Louis, Rashard Higgins, Mario Alford, and Jordan Payton. Running back Duke Johnson has also been working as a slot receiver.
When I examined the premier NFL trade candidates earlier this month, I listed two wide receivers: Phillip Dorsett (Colts) and Cody Latimer (Broncos). While neither player has posted much in the way of professional results, each would give the Browns a young pass-catcher at a position of need. Of course, both Dorsett and Latimer are entirely speculative acquisitions for Cleveland.
One wild card in the Browns’ search for a wide receiver is Josh Gordon, who hasn’t been played since 2014 while serving suspensions. Gordon is eligible to apply for reinstatement this fall, and has reportedly spent time in a rehab facility, perhaps buoying his chances of returning to the NFL.
There’s your Osweiler market. Convert $10m in salary to bonus, ship to Denver or Indy for one of the WRs.
yeah because Elway wanted him the first time
Jarvis Landry on line 1
Should have kept Pryor
Tried to keep him. Pretty sure he took less money for a “prove it” year with an established QB in DC.
He took less money because Cleveland withdrew their offer for him because Rosenhaus overestimated his market.
Which means that I wasn’t necessarly wrong with my statement. 😉
I’d wager they have a strong interest in Jarvis Landry. I don’t blame them for it either. He’s far better than Kenny Britt and better than Coleman has shown so far.
Terrelle Pryor? Why exactly did they not resign him?
Cleveland didn’t want to meet the price he wanted so they took back the offer. Then he switch to a one year deal to go back to free agency next year for his original price
Corey Coleman in Madden 17 tho?!?! BEAST!!!
