Browns fans have a second team to monitor closely for the entire 2025 season: the Jacksonville Jaguars. After their massive draft day trade that resulted in Travis Hunter landing with the Jaguars, the Browns picked up a 2025 second-round pick (Quinshon Judkins) and their first-round pick in 2026 to move down three spots. Because of this, Browns fans might be cheering for the Jaguars' losses even more than the Steelers, Ravens, and Bengals.
Jacksonville is entering a new era in 2025, as they completely cleaned house for the first time since 2020. Head coach Liam Coen has been a fast-riser in the coaching ranks from the Rams to the Buccaneers last year, and general manager James Gladstone is in the same boat as the youngest general manager in the league.
