Cleveland Browns: The benefits of signing a free agent quarterback

The Cleveland Browns surprised fans in 2016 by signing Robert Griffin III to a two-year deal, thus ending the talks of drafting a quarterback with the No. 2 overall pick.

The talks of Jared Goff or Carson Wentz ended, and Griffin became the starter, even though that doesn’t seem like the best decision in hindsight. The good news now is that the Browns got the first year of the rebuild out of the way, and can look to invest in a quarterback who can hold down the role for more than just a single season.
