Browns tried to trade Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy “multiple times.
Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy.The Cleveland Browns have been trying to gain some firepower this offseason, knowing they needed more firepower in their front office for months.
“[Jeudy] was the subject of trade rumors during the offseason,” Legvold wrote.
“Team sources say Cleveland Browns have made multiple attempts to sign Jewdy.”
Jeudy enters 2022 with a career-high 67 catches for 972 yards and six touchdowns.
The pursuit of Jerry Jeudy gives an idea of the type of receiver the Browns are looking for.
Cleveland’s interest in Jewdy offers insight into the type of player the Browns want/want to add to their offense — a first-round pick, and a first-round pick, ideally on a rookie contract.
Jeudy is a power threat with tremendous speed who can play on the outside against Amari Cooper.
Former first-round pick (No. 15 out of Alabama in 2020), draft analyst Lance Zierlein correctly predicted Jeudy as the freshman starter.
Judy’s talents command a huge salary. However, he is in the fourth season of a four-year, $15 million initial contract, so he could be relatively affordable in 2023.
The combination of package and talent the Browns are looking for in Jewdy extends through 2024, when Denver pays a generous $13 million in a fifth-year option.
If Cleveland trades Jewdy, the team would not only have control over the cost of the receiver’s final two seasons, but would also have the option to keep Jewdy under the franchise tag through 2026 if the Browns decide he’s worth the investment.
Jeudy isn’t having a great season, but his relatively low production could be due to the Broncos’ 1-5 start.
Through 12 games, including eight starts, Jeudy has caught 42 passes for 507 yards and one touchdown, according to Pro Football Reference.
Amari Cooper continues to battle injuries.Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper left Sunday’s game against the Rams with a concussion.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper. The Browns offense has been hampered by injuries this season, but receivers are the only position group that can stay relatively healthy.
A big part of that is Cooper’s ability to stay on the field despite a number of ailments that could keep him out for multiple games.
Cooper played in all 13 of Cleveland’s games this season, but was forced to sit out a few midseason games due to injury.
He is questionable due to a concussion suffered in the second quarter of last weekend’s Jacksonville Jaguars game against the Los Angeles Rams.
The wide receiver left the Browns’ game against the Denver Broncos three weeks ago after suffering a rib injury.
But X-rays came back negative and he was able to pitch against the Rams. Cooper has been productive in every way this season.
But considering the injuries that have forced him to play and all the revolutions the Browns have had at their quarterbacks, his numbers are impressive.
The team has started four QBs this year and have four games left. Cooper caught 57 passes for 876 yards and 78 touchdowns in 2023 after passing for 1,160 yards and nine TDs last season.
The Browns’ offense will look to complement Cooper with a true No. 1 receiver. 2 in Jeudy before the season and before the October 31st trade deadline.
Cleveland may need to replace Cooper entirely next season.
That’s because Cooper will cost the team about $24 million, making him a prime candidate to hit the salary cap.Max Dible covers the Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns and Golden State Warriors for Heavy.com.

Browns tried to trade Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy “multiple times.
The Cleveland Browns have been trying to gain some firepower this offseason, knowing they needed more firepower in their front office for months.
ESPN’s Jeff Legvold reported on Saturday, Dec. 16 that Cleveland has tried to negotiate for Denver Broncos tight end Jerry Jewdy multiple times to no avail.
“[Jeudy] was the subject of trade rumors during the offseason,” Legvold wrote.
“Team sources say Cleveland Browns have made multiple attempts to sign Jewdy.”
Jeudy enters 2022 with a career-high 67 catches for 972 yards and six touchdowns.
