3 players the Cleveland Browns could trade away still despite picking up a win over the Miami Dolphins

RB Jerome Ford

Ford’s role on this team couldn’t be clearer: he’s the third-down back. To this point, the Browns haven’t trusted rookie Dylan Sampson in that role, and they may not fully trust Quinshon Judkins to step up in pass protection yet. Ford remains valuable to Cleveland for that reason—and if they decide to keep him, that’ll likely be why. Still, Judkins is clearly the running back of the future, as he showed again on Sunday against Miami with three touchdowns. Ford has had a good run in Cleveland as a former fifth-round pick, but the Browns aren’t likely to bring him back next season.

DT Shelby Harris

Harris played well for the Browns on Sunday against the Dolphins, recording three tackles. The veteran defensive tackle has 11 tackles this season as a rotational piece on the interior and remains a solid player at 34 years old. Cleveland’s defensive line is its biggest strength, and it’s not even fully healthy yet. Second-year DT Mike Hall Jr. could make his debut against the New England Patriots in Week 8 after being listed as questionable for the first time against Miami. Once Hall returns, it could open the door for the Browns to trade Harris to a contender. Since Harris is likely to walk after the season, getting a draft pick in return would be a smart move.
