One of the Browns' most important moves of 2018 happened well after the start of the league year.
On March 30, Cleveland signed veteran Drew Stanton, who served an invaluable role in the Browns' quarterback room. It's a luxury to have a third option with as much experience and as much ability as Stanton possesses, and Cleveland took full advantage.
It's been a little less than a full week since the 2019 league year opened with a flourish, and the vast majority of high-profile free agents have found their new homes. But there are still plenty of fish in the sea, and the value is there.
Will the Browns take advantage? That remains to be seen.
