General manager of the Cleveland Browns Andrew Berry is working hard to be ready for the April 25 NFL Draft, just like every other team. However, it doesn’t mean Berry isn’t looking for other chances, through trade or NFL free agency, to bolster the Browns’ roster.
The Browns are a squad that other teams would love to add to their core because of their outstanding roster on both sides of the ball. However, the Browns are not prepared to start off-loading some of their talent; they are in the business of fighting for a chance to make a run at the postseason.
However, it hasn’t stopped other clubs from getting in touch with Cleveland regarding a few of the players on their roster, including Greg Newsome II, the 26th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
The Browns of Cleveland are unwilling to trade Greg Newsome II.
Despite multiple trade speculations involving Newsome, the 23-year-old appears to be uninterested in leaving the Browns.
Newsome hasn’t lived up to his draft status, despite starting 39 of the 41 games in which he has participated since joining Cleveland three seasons ago. However, Newsome is a useful player who, as Berry mentioned, contributes significantly to Cleveland’s defense under Jim Schwartz.
Although Newsome’s rookie deal with the Browns is about to expire, the team still has the option to exercise his fifth year, which would keep him with them through 2025 at a cost of $13.3 million.
