DT Andrew Billings

A second defensive tackle on this list?

The Browns were quite taken with Andrew Billings back in the 2016 NFL Draft, but were unable to select him then. When they saw him hit the market this offseason, they were thrilled to have the opportunity to land the versatile defensive tackle.

Expect Woods to use Billings as a chess piece in both the one gap (over the center) and in the three technique (over the guard). It would not be a shock if Billings and Elliott usurped the majority of Ogunjobi’s reps in 2020, making Larry’s chances of earning a new contract harder to come by.

After four years down the I-71 in Cincinnati, Billings makes the four hour drive north to Cleveland to resume his career. After seeing no depth at the defensive tackle position a year ago, the Browns now have four solid interior defensive lineman to shuffle through.

Should Billings thrive and be used in multiple looks like many, including this writer, expect, then he could be well on his way to earning a long term deal with the Browns beyond the one year contract he inked this offseason.
