GM Andrew Berry is solidly stacking Cleveland’s roster. Encourage #Browns fans to study the back third of Clowney’s last season in SEA &/t postseason run, after battling a core issue. Impact is on video. Yes he’s a great run-defender, ability to rush (circa ‘17 & ‘18) is there.

2017: DE Myles Garrett
2018: QB Baker Mayfield
Done deal: The #Browns are signing pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney, pairing him up with Myles Garrett. This offseason alone, GM Andrew Berry has added John Johnson, Troy Hill, Takk McKinley, Malik Jackson, and now Jadeveon Clowney to the defense.
