The Cleveland Browns enter the 2026 offseason in a position they haven't been in for years: holding a surplus of premium draft capital. Thanks to the Jacksonville Jaguars’ wild-card playoff exit, general manager Andrew Berry officially holds the No. 24 overall pick to go along with Cleveland's own No. 6 selection.
While the "draft and develop" crowd wants to use every one of Cleveland's 10 picks on fresh faces, the reality of Todd Monken’s new offensive system is that it needs proven producers to compete in the AFC North right now. With the roster currently in a state of flux, headlined by the departures of Wyatt Teller and David Njoku along with uncertainty across the rest of the offense, Berry might be better off trading that 24th pick for a "sure thing" rather than another rookie prospect.
