Dawgs By Nature
Many Browns fans think the team’s wide receiver situation will come back to bite them.
During the offseason, Cleveland Browns fans vote in SB Nation Reacts to express their confidence level in the team or their thoughts on other topics.
In Part 1 of our wide receiver preview on the Browns, we looked at how Jerry Jeudy established himself as a top receiver in the NFL, so much to the point that he was recently named to the NFL’s Top 100 list for the first time. After that, there’s not a lot of proven experience, as we also saw in Part 2 of our wide receiver preview. There is some potential experience with Diontae Johnson, but that comes a year after he was traded twice and cut by the Ravens for refusing to play in a game.
With al of that in mind, we asked Browns fans if they thought the receiver position would be an issue for the team in 2025. 63% of fans voted yes. It’s understandable because, as mentioned earlier, Jeudy is the only proven commodity. Fans are hoping that Cedric Tillman can be a breakout player, but we’re basing that off of a very small sample size of about five games last year in which he thrived. After him, we’re still not sure if David Bell, Michael Woods, or Jamari Thrash can amount to reliable contributors in the offense.
On the positive side of things, though, for what Cleveland may lack at receiver, they are above average with at tight end, as David Njoku and Harold Fannin Jr. should make for a dynamic pass-catching duo.
Over at FanDuel Sportsbook, you can currently bet on whether the Browns will have over/under 2.5 wins, 3.5 wins, or 5.5 wins.
