The Browns appear they are going to be relevant this year. And that all may depend on QB Deshaun Watson. Not only is he facing a suspension which may be for the entire season, but he hasn’t played in 18 months.
Past that, the offense is poised for great things with a good mix of run-first then pass. The defense has improved with the additions of DT Taven Bryan, CB Martin Emerson, DT Perrion Winfrey, DE Chase Winovich and re-signing DE Jadeveon Clowney.
Plus, the Special Teams unit is totally revamped with new kicker Cade York, newly-signed punter Corey Bojoquez and speedy return man Jakeem Grant.
