Browns Receive: 2024 second-round pick (No. 53 overall)

Eagles Receive: CB Greg Newsome II

As previously noted, the Eagles could really use younger options on the outside of their secondary.

Darius Slay and James Bradberry were one of the best cornerback duos of 2022 but 2023 reminded us how quickly players can age at the position. Slay will be 33 next season and missed multiple games with knee and back injuries last season. Bradberry was downright bad, giving up 11 touchdowns.

Cap constraints most likely forced the Eagles to stick with both veterans, but finding successors is a big piece of the offseason puzzle that hasn't been completed.

An alternative to drafting one that may or may not take some time to adapt to the league would be trading for a younger corner on a cheap deal. Greg Newsome is on the fourth year of his rookie contract. The Browns have a fifth-year option, but his 2024 salary is just $2.4 million.

Newsome doesn't have much ball production (two interceptions in three years), but he has never given up a passer rating above 85.6 in a single season.

The Browns already have a lot of money invested in Denzel Ward and Martin Emerson was even better than Newsome last season.

That might make him the odd man out as the Browns won't be able to pay all three down the line and they don't have a lot of draft capital in this year's event.
