The Cleveland Browns spent most of the offseason revamping the offense while bringing back a majority of the defense from last year. Retaining DE Jadeveon Clowney and LB Anthony Walker Jr. while getting a long-term extension with CB Denzel Ward were the highest priorities.
The team also spent a lot of their draft capital on the defensive side of the ball, drafting CB Martin (MJ) Emerson, DE Alex Wright and DT Perrion Winfrey with three of their first four selections.
The biggest veteran addition on that side of the ball was DE Chase Winovich. The Browns traded LB Mack Wilson to the New England Patriots in exchange for the former Michigan star. Winovich’s role was to replace what DE Takk McKinley gave the team before he got injured.
