BEREA: Coach Hue Jackson likes the idea of the Browns pursuing Jeremy Maclin, the best wide receiver on the open market.
Jackson’s preference doesn’t mean they’ll sign Maclin, but it supports the logic that the Browns must at least kick the tires on a player of his caliber at a position of need.
The Kansas City Chiefs shocked the rest of the NFL by cutting Maclin on Friday. ESPN reported he had been scheduled to visit the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday with plans to meet with the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday. The Browns and Philadelphia Eagles also have expressed some interest, according to the network.
