How many new starters will the Browns have on the offensive line in 2026 & how many will be rookies?

If you were to glance at the Cleveland Browns’ projected salary cap space for 2026, you would see the team sitting at just over $2 million, according to Spotrac.

The NFL salary cap can be manipulated in a number of ways, though, and Browns fans have watched general manager Andrew Berry perform some elite gymnastics in that regard over the years. Cleveland’s first order of business — after completing their search for a new head coach, of course — will be to re-address the Deshuan Watson contract fiasco. As it stands, the Browns owe Watson $46 million in fully guaranteed cash for the 2026 season, per Spotrac; the QB’s cap hit, however, is an NFL-record $80.7 million due to previous contract restructures. | https://dawgpounddaily.com/browns-may-have-a-70-million-answer-to-potential-offensive-line-disaster-nfl

  6. If the Browns can get Mauigoa, they'll probably draft another OL in rd 2 or 3. And they'll probably sign an OL too, so their line has the potential to have 3 new starters next year. And if you add in guys who weren't week 1 starters for them last year in Tevin Jenkins and Luke Wypler, it's possible that the entire starting OL for week 1 of 2026 will be completely different than it was in 2025.

  7. 2:34 That does apply to tackles, but not necessarily Gs and Cs. IOL drafted in the first round are generally expected to start,
    Donavan Jackson went 24th in the 2025 draft and started 14 games for the Vikings (go Bucks). Jonah Savaiinaea went 37th overall for the Dolphins and had 17 starts. Tate Ratledge went at # 57 and started 17 games for the Lions.
    In 2024 Graham Barton went at 26 to the Bucs and started 16 games. Jackson Powers-Johnson went at # 44 to the Raiders and started 14 games. Zach Frazier went at # 51 to the Steelers and started 15 games.
    If you need starters in the draft, late-1st and second round Gs and Cs are a great value.

  8. You have to get two new tackles. If Bitonio doesn't come back, he has to be replaced. Bring back Teller. What's the deal with Pocic? He can still play. Focus on the tackles.

  15. I want 5 new starters on the offensive line. Wypler at Center, and 2 new guards and 2 new tackles. I also want a new quarterback, preferably not one that is currently on the roster.

  16. you can tell at the beginning the body language was weird at first. Because they know the Jayson dude is an OPP. Cant believe dude said he doesnt want the Sanders kid on the roster at all

  19. I love when these Jokers try to pretend that playing football is difficult. The people in the NFL have been doing it for like 8 plus years, let's not pretend that playing on the offensive line is that big of a deal. Child please.

  23. Draft 5 "hungry dawg"offensive linemen that "want" to block, the opposite of Cam Wasington. You have 9 picks. Add 2 WR's, a Safety and a D-linemen.

  24. The Cleveland Browns need to look into the Big Ten for their answers at offensive lineman there's plenty of good players there that are overlooked by us on a regular basis it needs to stop
