Daily Dawg Tags: Richard Sherman may not be a great fit in Cleveland
The Seattle Seahawks are reportedly open to listening to trade offers for Richard Sherman, but the Cleveland Browns may not be a great fit for the veteran defensive back.
The NFL offseason always allows Cleveland Browns fans to dream about stars from around the league coming to Cleveland. While bringing Brock Osweiler to town didn’t exactly fulfill this dream, another name has popped up as one for fans to consider.
The Seattle Seahawks are reportedly open to listening to offers for Richard Sherman, although that doesn’t necessarily mean they want to trade him, yet they wouldn’t turn down a team overpaying for the defensive back.
We know the Browns likely won’t make an offer, but it is still interesting to consider the possibility, as perhaps he can be a target in the future. However, he may not be a great fit on the Browns.
With Sherman’s age, the youth movement in Cleveland, and the money already invested in Joe Haden, it is unlikely the Browns would make an offer not only for Sherman, but for any veteran defensive back.
Money is not only invested in Haden, but also in Jamar Taylor. And with the slew of draft picks in the next few years, veteran signings will not be common for the Browns.
But it is always fun to ponder the possibilities during this time of year, so let’s take a look at Sherman and more in today’s edition of the Daily Dawg Tags.
