3. WR Jamison Crowder

The Cleveland Browns have invested a ton of money between Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry at the wide receiver position already, yet they have limited playmakers behind him. Besides, as the Browns face an out in Landry’s contract this offseason, and considering Landry is having the worst season of his career (yes, he is hurt), they may look to get out of his $14 million contract.

A highly productive asset on the Jets right now is Jamison Crowder, who continues to post great numbers despite a horrid offensive history in the Big Apple. Crowder would be due $10.5 million in 2021, but he too has an out after this season in his contract. Should the Browns opt to let go of Landry after the season, Crowder would already be a significantly cheaper option for a similar role as Jarvis.

However in the meantime, Crowder could serve as the third wide receiver on this Cleveland football team, a team which currently has a significant drop off in talent after their top two options. Just estimating at this point, but it seems unlikely that Crowder would cost anything more than a fourth round pick in a trade, and this may be a price that Berry and company are willing to pay.
