Browns training camp is getting rolling and the roster has a lot of doubters
The Cleveland Browns have had an interesting offseason with a few splashy moves (extending DE Myles Garrett, trading out of the second overall pick, and drafting QB Shedeur Sanders after a huge drop in the NFL draft). Beyond those moves, the Browns biggest decision may have been to let RB Nick Chubb go in free agency.
With a big question at quarterback and coming off of a paltry three-win season, expectations around the Cleveland team are pretty low. The roster hasn’t had huge changes, although a change in offensive philosophy should help, with the defense seemingly needed to carry the squad to victories.
Noting the Garrett extension, adding Sanders and picking up an extra first-round pick in 2026, Sam Monson believes strongly in what Browns GM Andrew Berry pulled off this offseason around the most important positions:
In the end, much like how much Sashi Brown’s time in Cleveland was celebrated by Pro Football Focus (where Monson and co-host Steve Palazzolo recently departed), outcomes on the field are far more important than analysis of what could be. If the Browns find a quality starter in Sanders, Garrett stays engaged as the top player in the NFL and the extra first rounder becomes an impact player (along with DT Mason Graham), Berry’s moves this offseason will deserve lauding.
Hearing Monson, do you think it was a good offseason in Cleveland or is the analyst just being too positive about Berry and company?
