The Browns entered the offseason ready to make the necessary changes to ensure that a first-round play exit wouldn’t be the furthest they got in 2024.
In the week following the season, they let go of offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt along with their running backs and tight ends coach. The team brought in former Bills offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey and let linebackers Anthony Walker and Sione Takitaki walk in free agency. Without a first-round pick for a third consecutive season and hamstrung by the large number of guaranteed contracts on the roster, the Browns had to be fickle this offseason while tweaking a reigning playoff roster on the fly.
Because their starting roster is all but set and there wasn’t much salary cap room to maneuver, the Browns’ offseason, in terms of player personnel, was relatively quiet. Adding in the fact that they didn’t select until midway through the second round, much of the perception of how Cleveland’s offseason went trends toward mediocre reviews.
