2. Jarvis Landry

Like Julio Jones earlier, Jarvis Landry isn't the most fleet of foot wide receiver on the market this offseason, but he is a savvy veteran and a proven leader for the Cleveland Browns locker room. A player like Landry would be a welcomed sight for Deshaun Watson as he looks to take over this Cleveland franchise.

On the field, Landry still understands how to take advantage of soft spots in zone coverage. He utilizes leverage and change of speed to create separation at all three levels of the field. He still has great hands and is physical at the top of his route, as well as with the ball in his hands. If he can stay on the field, he can still be impactful on it in 2023.

Where Landry would truly help elevate this Browns offense and team is with his leadership in the locker room. When he came to Cleveland, Landry truly helped shift the culture and helped turn the Browns into the playoff team that they turned out the be in 2020.

Cleveland fans, including myself, were devastated when he was released ahead of the 2022 season, with the team surely missing his leadership with his departure to New Orleans. A Landry return could bring the "juice" back to Cleveland, and help get them over the top with this talented roster that they have going into 2023.
