Cleveland traded their 2027 sixth-round pick to the Texans for their 2027 seventh-round draft choice and Robinson, which is a nominal fee to address this problem for the remainder of the year.
Robinson is twenty-nine and spent the first seven and a half years of his career with Jacksonville, which drafted him in the second round from Alabama in 2017.
Midway through last season, Robinson was traded to Minnesota, where he finished the year and signed with Houston as a free agent in the offseason.
Robinson played in Houston's first three games, starting one, but was inactive in Houston's game yesterday as the trade was worked out.
The 6'6, 335-pound Robinson is in his ninth season, has started over one hundred games in his career, is known for his strength in pass blocking, and should be exactly what the Browns are looking for right now- a veteran left tackle who can steady the ship at the position.
The cost is reasonable, the need is vast, and Robinson is signed only through the end of the season, so the financial obligation isn't high. So credit Andrew Berry for attempting to do something rather than running lesser players out and hoping for the best.
Cam Robinson isn't a Pro Bowl tackle, but he's solid enough to get by with at left tackle at a time when the alternatives are severely lacking.
