Cleveland Browns: 6 Trade targets as the deadline approaches
By Randy Gurzi
DeVante Parker, WR, Miami Dolphins
One area of concern for the Cleveland Browns this season has been the wide receiver spot. They did go out and get Jarvis Landry from the Miami Dolphins and added Antonio Callaway in the draft. However, they also parted ways with Josh Gordon and lost Ricardo Louis and Rashard Higgins to injury.

If they really want to try and open the offense up more, they need another pass catcher. They could look back to the Dolphins and add one of Landry’s former teammates in DeVante Parker.
While Parker has struggled with injuries himself this season, he has flashed some big-play potential. He may also be had for a decent price considering he’s on the outs with Miami.
Mohamed Sanu, WR, Atlanta Falcons
If the Browns aren’t enamored with Parker, there could be another option out there in Mohamed Sanu of the Atlanta Falcons. Sanu is a big target with great hands. He excels at bringing in contested passes and despite not being a burner, he can help out tremendously.
Atlanta hasn’t shown any indication they want to move on from him, but it wouldn’t be a shock if they did. Sanu is behind Julio Jones and rookie Calvin Ridley in terms of targets and makes a lot of money. With many players up for extensions soon, they may be willing to part with Sanu.
