The Cleveland Browns, like every other team in the league, are constantly looking for ways to improve their roster.
The Browns enter the 2023 NFL Draft without a first or second-round pick thanks to their trade for then-Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson last season. The Browns won’t make a selection until the third round with the 74th overall selection, a pick acquired in a trade with the New York Jets.
Browns general manager Andrew Berry, who has made several keen trades over his three-year tenure, could make another one before the season starts.
Mary Kay Cabot, a longtime Browns beat reporter for cleveland.com, agreed with a reader’s question if the Browns could make a “big trade” to improve the roster.
“I could see the Browns making another trade or two during draft weekend or at some other point before the trade deadline in early November, because Browns GM Andrew Berry takes full advantage of the trade market, and some of his best acquisitions have come via trade, including receivers Amari Cooper and Elijah Moore,” Cabot responded.
“I think there are several other key positions they need to fill before the season, including defensive tackle and defensive end, and they will look everywhere to upgrade the roster at any position.”
Cabot went on to say the Browns have a “very good chance” of making the playoffs despite playing in an “always tough” division like the AFC North.
