Browns legend takes coaching role at alma mater

The Cleveland Browns have not had much go right since returning to the NFL in 1999.  But one thing they absolutely nailed was signing Josh Cribbs as an undrafted free agent in the spring of 2005. A standout quarterback at Kent State for four years, Cribbs left the Golden Flashes as the program’s all-time leader […]

Browns UDFA’s contract seems to all but guarantee his roster spot

The Cleveland Browns had a large 2026 NFL draft class. With 10 new rookies added to the roster, on top of all seven of last year’s draft class who contributed to the team in 2025, the Browns may not have a lot of room for undrafted free agents to make this year’s roster. With a […]

AFC North: Checking on, grading the Ravens 2026 NFL draft haul

A few days out from the 2026 NFL draft, okay, almost a week, and there is still a lot to digest. Cleveland Browns fans were riding a high from their team’s picks this year, then got dealt the interesting information that QB Deshaun Watson was in the lead, with a significant gap for QB Shedeur […]

Browns lose another defender in NFL free agency

With the 2026 NFL draft in our rearview mirror, the Cleveland Browns prepare for rookie minicamp, followed by OTAs and mandatory minicamp. All of a sudden, NFL free agency has picked back up around the NFL, including the Browns adding FB Michael Burton and losing CB Martin Emerson Jr. to the New Orleans Saints. While […]

Browns 2026 NFL draft: OT Austin Barber interview with DBN

Take a look at the final 2025 offensive line rankings in the NFL. Where did the Cleveland Browns rank? Try #32. That’s out of 32 teams. So, dead friggin’ last. This is an offensive line group that just a few years ago was ranked #3 in the league. Which is pretty sad. Editor’s update: Cleveland […]

Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders: Browns QB competition has strong leader

Everything that was old is new again when it comes to the Cleveland Browns. After getting to see the three quarterbacks on the field for the first time, new HC Todd Monken verbalized a similar approach as old HC Kevin Stefanski, plus the use of helmet cams. Then, when the Browns added QB Taylen Green […]

Browns NFL draft: Biggest impact after the 1st round picks

With two first-round selections in the 2026 NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns hope that Spencer Fano and KC Concepcion will make a huge impact. A great deal of attention is given to the first-round draft picks, but numerous other selections are made over the remaining two days of the draft. Of those taken in the remaining rounds, which rookies […]

Browns: What is the latest on players still in free agency?

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry opened the offseason by promising that the team would be making a heavy investment in the offense.  Say what you will about Berry, but no one can accuse him of not being true to his word. Berry started in on the offensive line by working out a trade for […]

Browns lose veteran free agent just days after NFL draft

The give and take of the NFL is consistent with roster changes happening throughout the year and around tentpole events. The start of the NFL league year sees the opening of NFL free agency, where teams shuffle bodies in an attempt to right the wrongs of the past season or add to the success from […]

Browns NFL draft grades: 24 graders, only 5 “B’s” and top overall grade

Some are very excited about the Cleveland Browns finally adding a fullback for HC Todd Monken’s offense. A few more (sarcasm) are excited about the Browns results from the 2026 NFL draft. FB Michael Burton may have a huge impact on Cleveland’s season, but it is far more likely that the 10 rookies brought in via draft […]

Nailed it: Browns fans give Cleveland’s draft an A, the highest in the NFL

Cleveland Browns GM Andrew Berry faced a tall task of having to build upon last year’s successful draft class that saw the likes of DT Mason Graham, RB Quinshon Judkins, LB Carson Schwesinger, and TE Harold Fannin put up impressive numbers. He may have out-done himself in 2026. The top four picks in this year’s […]

AFC North: Checking on the Bengals 2026 NFL draft haul

What we know about Cleveland Browns fans, besides that they’ve been through enough negativity since The Return in 1999, is that they know almost everything they can about their team. It is why, for years, Chris Pokorny’s undrafted free agent tracker here at DBN was the first and best in the game. In some ways, […]

Browns 2026 draft grades: ‘A potential home-run class’

The NFL Draft is always a bit of a crapshoot, no matter how much people want to believe that certain teams or general managers have unlocked the secrets. But one area that might provide a window into how a team can succeed is its culture. That is according to Tim Derdenger, an associate professor of […]
