Cleveland Browns reported 2020 undrafted free agent signings tracker
By Dan Justik
The Cleveland Browns made seven selections in the 2020 Draft, but they are not done, as we track all of Cleveland’s reported undrafted free agent signings.
Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry has been busy over the past three days during the 2020 NFL Draft working on building his ideal roster. Berry was not as active in the trade market as expected, but he did acquire extra draft capital and still landed players to address their biggest needs.
After addressing their biggest need in the first round with the selection of offensive tackle Jedrick Wills, Berry selected several high-value players. Although some players were upside picks, Berry knew where the roster was lacking and aggressively added talent.
The Browns took a balanced approach to their draft, selecting four players on the offensive side of the ball and three defensive players. It was expected the Browns would focus on the defensive side of the ball, but there was great value where the Browns landed offensive talent.
