One of the hardest things for a fan is to have to choose between rooting for a player or rooting for a team. With some situations, it’s easy; most Browns fans chose team over player when it came to Deshaun Watson. The name on the front of the jersey was there before him, and will continue to be there whenever he is playing for someone else, crossing fingers that it’s as soon as next year. The flip side of the coin is the decision to not bring back Nick Chubb.

As the 2025 NFL Draft has come to a close, it’s been widely acknowledged that Cleveland had a good-to-very-good draft. They might not have used their second overall pick to take the player with the highest ceiling, but they did use the pick to properly set themselves up for the future. In the trade with Jacksonville, they acquired the fifth overall pick (DT Mason Graham), the 37th overall pick, (RB Quinshon Judkins), the 126th pick (RB Dylan Sampson), and the Jags' 2026 first-round pick.

Well this certain didn’t go the way we expected. When Cleveland went 3-14, we all assumed it was to pick as high as possible, to acquire the bluest of blue chippers, whether that be the best QB in a one QB draft (It wasn’t) or the two-way-playing, reigning Heisman champ who everyone concluded had the highest of ceilings (Nope x2).

We did it. We finally got to Opening Day. This winter felt eternal and interminable, mostly from a weather standpoint, but also from a “oh god oh god, the Browns suck again” view. Not even the red hot, best-record-in-the-East-and-often-the-NBA Cavaliers could make the winter months tolerable in Northeast Ohio. But we are finally here. We made it through the “hot” stove season, spring training split squad matchups, and 87,000 “DoLaNz ChEeP” memes on Twitter til today. Opening Day.

At this point in spring training, there are very few questions when it comes to roster management. We know the guys that are gonna land on the injured list, most of the obvious names are optioned back to the minors, and all that’s left is one or two spots on the bench or rotation. Come Thursday at 4:10pm, we will know all 26 men on the roster, but today, we still have questions about who will be the last guy on the bench.
