Latest news and updates about the Browns
If one position group that needs a complete facelift this offseason for the Cleveland Browns, it’s the wide receiver room. Going into last season, the group had massive questions, and those questions were never answered as the season went on. Wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is a WR2 at this point in his career, not a […]
The 2026 NFL Draft class is loaded with talent at both offensive tackle and guard, which means the Browns should have lots of excellent options to rebuild in the trenches. Andrew Berry and Co. have to put a lot of stock and thought into this year’s draft class when it comes to the offensive line, […]
Cleveland Browns linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah has been sidelined since the middle of the 2024 season after suffering a neck injury against the Baltimore Ravens. While obviously scary, there was hope that JOK would make it back to the field for the 2025 season and regain the form that sent him to the Pro Bowl in […]
NFL free agency doesn’t officially start until the poorly-nicknamed “legal tampering period” opens on March 9th. No one is fooled by that date, as conversations about free agents and trades started last year during and after the NFL trade deadline. Things will really heat up at the NFL combine next week when dinner and drinks […]
There was a time when the Cleveland Browns’ linebacker room was quite full. That is no longer the case. While Carson Schwesinger had a terrific year and has provided stability and a reliable tackler, along with league awards, the other positions are currently in flux. And as the free agency period approaches on March 9, […]
The Cleveland Browns have a real opportunity to fill in some major roster holes through free agency this offseason. They have several possible paths to consider, but focusing on their biggest areas of need in free agency will be crucial to positioning themselves for success in the draft. GM Andrew Berry historically does not like […]
Cleveland’s new defensive coordinator, Mike Rutenberg, is known for a few things, and one of them is his gravitation towards relying heavily on his slot cornerbacks in multiple ways. The “Einstein of the secondary” has always been able to find above-average athletes to play nickel for him, and there’s a player in this year’s class […]
Happy Saturday, everyone, and hope you are enjoying the final quiet days of the NFL calendar. It was a bit of a lazy week in Browns Town, although head coach Todd Monken did hire Mike Rutenberg as defensive coordinator, along with making a few other reported hires official. Sadly, the week also brought news that […]
Things are starting to come together for HC Todd Monken’s Cleveland Browns coaching staff, just days away from the NFL combine kicking off. There has been a lot of reporting about who will be joining Monken in his first-ever head coaching gig, including a number of former Baltimore Ravens coaches. On Friday, the Browns made […]
With the NFL combine kicking off early next week (This staff member will be there and is seeking your questions in The Feed), the Cleveland Browns are slowly putting their defensive staff together, even if they have not made any of the decisions official. New HC Todd Monken has chosen Mike Rutenberg as the team’s […]
Football is a violent game, a collision sport full of athletes who are getting bigger, stronger, and faster, with protective equipment only able to do so much. For teams, like the Cleveland Browns, injury luck (or lack thereof) is one of many variables that can dramatically impact the outcome of a game, a season, or […]
The Cleveland Browns have a new defensive coordinator. That was one of the last pieces of the puzzle. The new head coach, Todd Monken, had several names on his list for the position. That was shortened down to about four names. When Monken was hired, he held a press conference. In that presser, a reporter […]
As we enter the NFL off-season with the scouting combine starting soon and NFL free agency starting next month, the Cleveland Browns will focus on building a competitive team in 2026. The roster has a ton of holes that need to be addressed, and how the team goes about addressing them will be intriguing. In […]
The latest Cleveland Browns coverage from Dawgs By Nature: More Cleveland Browns news:
While the NFL draft gets a lot of attention, for good reason, NFL free agency and trades happen first on the NFL offseason calendar and greatly shape what happens for teams in the actual draft. The Cleveland Browns may not be very active in free agency, but face an important offseason nonetheless. The need to […]
The need for the Cleveland Browns starts, and basically ends, on the offensive side of the ball. Could the defense use a third starting cornerback? Sure. Could special teams improve in a variety of ways, including a great returner? Certainly. Would any of that matter if the Browns offense continues to be terrible? Obviously not. […]
Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken went “outside the family” to hire Mike Rutenberg as the team’s defensive coordinator. While Monken’s offensive coaching staff has seen almost a complete turnover, save for wide receivers coach Christian Jones and running backs coach Duce Staley, the situation has been somewhat quiet on the defensive side of the […]
The Cleveland Browns offseason will be very telling about what the front office and ownership expect for the 2026 NFL season. If the Browns are aggressive in addressing their needs in the short term, it will likely mean competing for the AFC North and a playoff spot is expected. If Cleveland is more reserved, as […]
Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett further stated his case as one of the game’s best in 2025. When Garrett brought down Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow in the season finale, it established a new standard for sacks in a single season with 23. Other notable achievements in Garrett’s nine seasons: Garrett’s record-breaking season earned […]
There is a saying in the NFL: You can never have too many great cornerbacks. The Cleveland Browns have Denzel Ward, Tyson Campbell, and Myles Harden at cornerback. Are they good there? Do they need another guy? Is M.J. Emerson going to return? Will GM Andrew Berry re-sign Emerson or allow him to walk in […]
The latest Cleveland Browns coverage from Dawgs By Nature: More Cleveland Browns news:
The list of players that will enter NFL free agency for the Cleveland Browns is long. While TE David Njoku has already announced that he will not return to the Browns, and said goodbye to Cleveland, there is still hope that OL Joel Bitonio and a number of other quality players could return. Cleveland GM […]
Promoting Zak Kuhr to defensive coordinator was the logical choice in the aftermath of Terrell Williams moving to a different role on staff, but the New England Patriots still had to adhere to the NFL’s hiring processes. This meant satisfying the Rooney Rule by interviewing at least two minority or female candidates for every open […]
The Cleveland Browns head into the 2026 NFL draft with a few extra draft picks and a few too many needs, especially on the offensive side of the ball. Almost every Browns mock draft will include the team adding multiple offensive linemen, wide receivers, and maybe even a quarterback. NFL free agency and trades could […]
