Cleveland Browns

If the regular season ended today, the Cleveland Browns would be in the playoffs as an AFC Wild Card thanks to a 5-2 start.

However, losing Beckham will make the road to the postseason significantly more difficult for the Browns. Additionally, there is no guarantee that Beckham will be healthy in time for Week 1 of the 2021 season, so the Browns might view Tate as a depth play for next season as well.

In addition to their own picks, the Browns also have an additional third-rounder (via Saints), fourth-rounder (via Eagles), fifth-rounders (via Jaguars, Rams), and seventh-rounders (via Buffalo Bills), so GM Andrew Berry has plenty of ammunition to pull off another deal with Dave Gettleman involving a wide receiver.
