4 Potential Landing Spots for Tyrod Taylor
By Jon Dove
Cleveland Browns
Tyrod Taylor and the Cleveland Browns are an excellent match. The Browns are a team in desperate need of some stability at the quarterback position and have money to spend. Taylor would land with a team that would hand him the starting job and have a coach with a good reputation of working with quarterbacks.
Cleveland’s huge amount of salary cap space should not be understated in this situation. They have the money to outbid any team looking to bring Taylor into the mix. The Browns have the flexibility to “overpay” Taylor and structure it in a way that it doesn’t hurt their long-term salary cap standing.

Taylor would give the Browns stability at the quarterback position and allow them to avoid reaching for one in the upcoming draft. His presence would make it easier for the team to attract free agency and keep their own like Terrelle Pryor.
The Browns roster obviously is a major work in progress, but they have some solid offensive weapons. Pryor has emerged as a legitimate talent and rookie Corey Coleman has shown a ton of promise. Joe Thomas is still in place along the offensive line with several younger players rounding into form.
Hue Jackson is also someone who could draw a quarterback to the Browns. He’s a good players coach and works to build an offense around his signal caller.
