The Cleveland Browns have undergone significant roster changes in 2022, with several players potentially on the trading block. Here are three leading candidates who could be traded:

Baker Mayfield

  • Currently carries an $18.8 million cap hit
  • Lost starting role after Browns acquired Deshaun Watson
  • Trade timing depends on Watson's NFL ruling
  • Browns may keep him as backup if Watson faces suspension
  • Trade likely but timing uncertain

Greedy Williams

  • 2019 second-round pick with underwhelming performance
  • Limited to backup role behind Ward and Newsome II
  • Started only 8 of 16 games in 2021
  • Contract expires after 2022 season
  • Trade likely before losing him in free agency
  • Value higher in early season if Watson suspended

Jordan Elliott

  • Third-year defensive tackle with limited production
  • Only 4 career starts and 0.5 sacks
  • Played 44% of defensive snaps in 2021
  • Faces competition from new additions:
    • Taven Bryan (free agent signing)
    • Perrion Winfrey (rookie)
    • Glen Logan (rookie)
    • Tommy Togiai (2021 draft pick)
  • Could be traded if Browns add veteran DT

The Browns currently have +2000 odds to win the Super Bowl, with these potential trades potentially impacting their championship aspirations.
