JUST NOW: Targets for Wide Receivers in Cleveland Browns 2024 Free Agency
![](https://360sportgist.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/download-35.jpg)
For the 2024 campaign, the wide receiver position could use some improvement and depth for the Cleveland Browns. These are a few players that Andrew Berry may choose to target in the upcoming free agency class.
Though not as great as in previous years, the positional needs of the Cleveland Browns this offseason will still have a big impact on general manager Andrew Berry’s decisions regarding free agency, the draft, and potential trades. In this article, we’ll examine unrestricted free agency options (players with expired contracts who have accrued four or more seasons of service) in specific positions where the Browns may benefit from an improvement, whether it be in terms of starting or depth/rotational players.
The Browns will likely pursue wide receivers with their first pick (number 54 overall) in the 2023 NFL Draft as well as through free agency and/or trade. The Browns need strong playmakers to help quarterback Deshaun Watson lead the offense to new heights because the output following Amari Cooper in 2023 was somewhat lacking. For our purposes, Mike Evans of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers re-signs with the team, while Tee Higgins of the Cincinnati Bengals and Michael Pittman of the Indianapolis Colts are assumed to be franchise-tagged.

A few metrics definitions used throughout
Amounts expected to be added (“EPA”) through Inside the Pylon: A football statistic called Expected Points Added (EPA) aims to quantify the worth of individual plays in terms of points. The Expected Points (EP) of the down, distance, and field position scenario at the beginning of a play are calculated, and the results are compared to the situation at the conclusion of the play. Conventional statistics typically fail to convey the differences between a three-yard gain on third-and-two and a three-yard gain on first-and-10. The Expected Points structure aids in converting unprocessed gains into useful information.
The prospect’s athletic testing results at a pro day or combine are compared to their size and past performance from players at the same position to determine their relative athletic score, or “RAS.” Each candidate receives a score ranging from 0 to 10, which is determined by comparing their RAS to historical data for the same position. compiled and computed by Pro Football Network’s Kent Lee Platte.
