Cleveland did not just add a flyer. The Browns handed Isaiah Bond a three‑year, fully guaranteed contract worth just over $3 million. That is a historic level of commitment for an undrafted rookie. You do not guarantee that money unless you plan to use the player.

Bond brings verified speed and vertical juice from Alabama and Texas. The timing is perfect. Joe Flacco was just named the starter, the receiver room is deep with route runners, and the offense needed another player who can threaten leverage and force safeties to honor the third level.
