All NFL teams must decide on 2020 first-round picks and their fifth-year option by May first. The first-round pick of the Cleveland Browns that year was Jedrick Wills at number 10 overall, so a decision will be made on his future this offseason. Cleveland.com’s Mary Kay Cabot believes that the team is happy with the direction that Wills is trending in and that they will exercise the option.
“This year, it’s left tackle Jedrick Wills Jr.’s turn, their No. 10 overall pick that year. The Browns were pleased with Wills’ progress in 2022 and will likely pick up the option for 2024. It’s $14.175 million — fully guaranteed when exercised — unless they negotiate a multi-year deal.”
The fan base seems to be split over this decision with people wanting him gone and others wanting him retained. Overall this is the right decision because as far as salaries go for left tackles this isn’t that high. Wills has been mostly average with spikes below and above but there is no denying he has the talent to be a great player if he consistently puts it all together.
