A Cleveland Browns blog
All of a sudden, Cleveland Browns GM Andrew Berry is back and active in NFL free agency. Perhaps that uptick in salary cap space from insurance and poor performance gave the Browns general manager something to work with, or players have seen what the free agent market looks like and have decided to come to […]
The Cleveland Browns, to the surprise of no one, have not been big spenders in free agency. Such is life when you are in the stages of a soft rebuild (is there such a thing?) while continuing to deal with one of the worst contracts in league history. The good news is that general manager […]
The Cleveland Browns continue to make moves in NFL free agency, but none at the three positions that fans and media have identified as the biggest needs: Quarterback, left tackle, and wide receiver.

One of the things that makes football great is the number of variables involved in the game. Not only are there 22 players on the field, more than basketball and baseball combined, but weather, field conditions, the fans, and the referees can all impact the game in a variety of ways. For the Cleveland Browns, […]

Although the Browns have made some important moves in free agency, there are still some missed opportunities that could’ve helped to improve the roster. The Cleveland wide receiver room is still a major weakness on the team, and they have yet to sign anyone to help fill this void. Mike Evans is a vertical threat […]

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry was at a crossroads with the tight end position heading into free agency. Berry had secured a talented pass catcher at the position with the selection of Harold Fannin Jr. in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft. All Fannin did as a rookie was lead the team […]
Today, the NFL announced the annual performance-based pay distributions that were earned by players during the 2025 season. In total, $542 million of wealth is being dispersed out to players, none of which impacts teams’ salary caps. The league used to provide breakdowns of all the distributions a team’s players received, but lately, they have […]
The Cleveland Browns signed OL Zion Johnson to a 3-year, $49.5 million deal early in the free agency period, but now it’s time to look at a breakdown of his year-by-year contract details. We’ve gotten so used to how Berry structures his multi-year contracts. I pulled up a copy of Jerry Jeudy’s deal from a […]
The speed at which the NFL moves is quite impressive, especially for a sport whose actual schedule is just over four months long. While NFL free agency is now open until the Super Bowl, a vast majority of the moves have already been made. A few big trades, a variety of lower-level free agent signings, […]
As the Cleveland Browns continue to remake their entire offense during the offseason (the offensive line being the focal point), the rest of the unit remains unchanged. The wide receiver room still needs work. Another position that remains unchanged is the quarterback room. Second-year pros Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel, along with veteran Deshaun Watson, […]
The Cleveland Browns have been busy in this year’s free agency period. When a team loses 26 games in the past two seasons, there are plenty of problems and numerous holes to be filled. GM Andrew Berry has a long list of players he focused on, as well as positions of need. RELATED: BROWNS FAN […]

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry had a decision to make with linebacker Devin Bush heading into free agency. Bush had spent the past two seasons with the Browns and was entering free agency after a 2025 season in which he posted a career-high 125 tackles and returned two of his three interceptions for touchdowns. […]
It’s not often that an NFL team has the opportunity to roster two tight ends with almost identical skillsets, but the Browns have the option to do so with North Carolina State TE Justin Joly. He’s an exceptional athlete and can do most of the things that Harold Fannin Jr. can do from a schematic […]
The Cleveland Browns needed some inside defensive line help after the 2025 season had concluded. There were some answers already in place, but also some question marks. What didn’t need to be solved was rookie DT Mason Graham’s (6’-4”, 315 pounds) season. He came as advertised after being selected fifth overall in last year’s NFL […]
There is a bit of a lull across the NFL as teams embark on the second week of free agency. The big-money moves have all pretty much been completed, so teams are now looking for bargains. Perhaps it is a veteran looking for one more contract. Or an injured player willing to sign a one-year […]
As NFL free agency and the 2026 league year was beginning earlier this week, compensatory picks were unveiled, of which the Cleveland Browns did not have any. From 1994-2025, the Browns have a league-low 14 compensatory picks. Granted, Cleveland missed a year years as a franchise during that span, but those years wouldn’t have made […]
