The Cleveland Browns have invested a ton into their secondary, including two first round picks and a third round pick at the cornerback position. And outside of a staggeringly strong rookie season from Martin Emerson Jr., the trio underperformed under former defensive coordinator Joe Woods. The talent is there, but there is no doubt the unit needs a bounce-back season as a whole.
As a result of their uneven play a year ago, none of the three cornerbacks made the cut in Doug Farrar’s top 11 rankings at the position. Denzel Ward has played to the tune of a top seven, and Greg Newsome II even produced strongly as a rookie in 2021. The Browns need these guys playing like their old selves again under Jim Schwartz.
