5. Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns are going to have a major need at the wide receiver position, especially with the latest issue that Josh Gordon has run into by failing another drug test. Randall Cobb would be a perfect target for them, and he would be a nice fit to grow alongside the young team that they have put together.

Cobb would be able to fill the big play ability that has made Gordon so dangerous throughout his career, but he is also able to make plays over the middle and in the short game.

It is unclear at this point in time who will be the Browns’ quarterback next season, which is likely to be a big deal for Cobb. He has become accustomed to playing alongside of Aaron Rodgers, and heading to a team that has Johnny Manziel as their starting quarterback simply isn’t ideal. That being said, if Manziel gets his head on straight he could be a very good quarterback.

Cleveland is certainly an option for Cobb, but they aren’t going to be his first choice. They might offer him a deal he can’t refuse, but he will have other options that are far more attractive than the Browns.
