The defensive line needs a major addition in the worst way.
The ends are good enough as part of a rotation,but not good enough to put a serious hurting on the passer.
Billy Winn,John Hughes and Desmond Bryant are OK,but I'm looking for more than OK.
Phil Taylor missed time last season,is a free agent at the end of this season and Randy Starks provides pass rushing after being signed from Miami,but lacks the run stuffing ability that one likes to see on the nose.
The Browns will likely address the nose tackle and could add an end as well..
The Browns could use some help at linebacker as well.
Paul Kruger increased his production at one outside spot with an excellent 2014 and the inside player were strong with veteran Karlos Dansby performing well and Craig Robertson surprising me with a breakout season with Christian Kirksey showing promise off his rookie year.
Former first rounder Barkevious Mingo played all last season with bicep problems,but has not delivered the pass rush expected.
Armonty Bryant is being moved from defensive end to attempt the move that Jabaal Sheard failed to make and I wonder if this will be any more successful.
A outside rusher to complement Kruger is a huge need...
The Browns seem safe at corner with Joe Haden and the latest signing of Tramon Williams.
Pierre Desir showed some ability in his late season games and K'Waun Williams was a find as an undrafted free agent.
If the Browns can get anything out of Justin Gilbert,this could be a strength of the team.
Cleveland could use a safety to build up depth behind Donte Whitner and Tashaun Gipson as the Browns really don't have anyone of note beyond special team types in case of injury.
Spencer Lanning is likely to return as punter and although I'm not against challengers,I wouldn't favor a draft pick on one..
