20 free agency targets for the Browns on the eve of legal tampering

The new league year is less than a week away with legal tampering starting Monday, March 13th. The Cleveland Browns have work to do if they want to return to the playoffs after a disappointing 7-10 campaign in 2022. The team has got to find massive improvements on the defensive line especially the interior of what was a historically bad run defense last year. While Ethan Pocic is not completely off the table, he may have priced himself out as well.

Outside of center offensively, the Browns will also be looking to add an explosive playmaker at the wide receiver position. There are plenty of options with several insiders saying the team will be aggressive and look to make some big moves in free agency, let’s look at some options.
