5. Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns are an extremely intriguing possibility for DeMarco Murray, as they are looking for a move or two to boost them back into playoff contention. He might be out of their price range, but would be a perfect addition for them on the field.

Johnny Manziel appears to be the top option at the quarterback position, which is cause for concern in and of itself. He struggled in his first two career starts, and the offense sputtered. There are plenty of playmakers on the Browns’ roster, but they could use someone that can be a workhorse offensively to help take pressure off of the quarterback.

Murray fits that description perfectly, and would be an excellent pickup for the Browns to play alongside of Manziel.

Cleveland finished up this past season as the 17th ranked rushing offense in the NFL, averaging 108.0 yards per game. That number would likely take a major leap forward with the addition of Murray.
