Just missed the Top 10:

Kevin Johnson

The second-round pick in the 1999 NFL Draft, Johnson had five solid seasons with the Browns. While the team struggled to win because they were a reboot of the original franchise, Johnson provided some exciting moments in team history. He finished with 315 catches for 3,836 yards and 23 touchdowns during his tenure.

Braylon Edwards

Some have listed Braylon Edwards in their top 10 of other wide receiver rankings but he just misses the cut here. He was drafted out of Michigan in the 2005 NFL Draft at the No. 3 spot and did not disappoint in his five seasons with the Browns. He finished with 238 receptions for 3,697 yards and added 28 touchdowns.

Greg Pruitt

Greg Pruitt is a running back but is considered one of the best pass-catchers in Browns history. Pruitt played nine years in Cleveland. While he was a great running back, he was also a fantastic receiver and ended up catching 323 passes for 3,033 yards and 17 touchdowns.

Eric Metcalf

Following Pruitt’s skill set, Eric Metcalf, another running back came to Cleveland in 1989 and played the next six seasons with the team. He finished catching 297 passes for 2,732 yards and 15 touchdowns. Metcalf was also a fantastic kick and punt returner.
