With new defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz now on board the reshaping of the Cleveland Browns’ defense is underway. A big area of focus for General Manager Andrew Berry will be improving the defensive tackle room. With the Colts in a potential rebuilding rumors suggest that former All-Pro DeForest Buckner may be available for trade.
This move wouldn’t make much sense for the Browns because of both the contract and assets. Though he may not take a first round pick the team is low on premium picks. On top of that, his current contract carries a cap number of nearly 20 million this season and over 20 next season in 2024.
