The Cleveland Browns can still win the AFC North and making one of these moves ahead of the 2019 NFL Trade Deadline would surely help in that endeavor

The Cleveland Browns (2-5) are off to a terrible start. The offense has failed to score 14 points four times this season. Off-season projections had this being one of the most explosive units in the league, but the Browns have fallen well short of that.

The offense is 20th in total offense, and 25th in points scored. The statistics that the Browns rank highest in aren’t ones you want to be associated with your team. They are number one in turnovers and penalties. Two things that have plagued them in their two most recent contests.

The defense was lauded by every offense member during training camp pressers, and they too have underachieved. The Browns rank 22nd in points allowed and 21st in rush defense. However, they rank seventh in passing yards allowed.

At this point, it’s easy to pile on to Cleveland’s disappointing start. Bu the good news is, they’ve had the toughest schedule to begin the season but now enter a stretch the is second-easiest remaining.

Baker Mayfield says their discipline issues will be fixed in time to right the ship. Freddie Kitchens says they’ve seen how good they can be, but need to become a team, not a group.

The start has been poor, but nine games remain. The Browns know they have the tools to turn things around, and they have them the schedule for it as well.

There are position groups that need to be improved before tomorrow’s deadline. John Dorsey says it takes two to tango, and here are the teams he needs to join him in the dance.
