The stats speak for themselves. As most fans of the Cleveland Browns can remember, the wide receiver position has actually generally been a strength of the team over the past decade. 2016 was a perfect example of this, a season in which Terrelle Pryor surpassed the 1,000 mark in overtime of the season finale.
It’s not that the receiver position has been perfect, but the play of the majority of Cleveland’s wideouts over the past season has actually been adequate. The ability of this group to perform so well at times is very impressive given the circumstances, and underscores the need for a stronger offense around them.
