Quinshon Judkins
-
After week 14 Judkins is ranked 16th in the league in rushing. And he's the leading rookie RB in rushing.
Looking at his numbers one would reach the conclusion that he ain't anything special and that the team should look to upgrade the position in the draft. But if you watched the games you would know that that poor guy has had to smash through defenders just to get back to the LOS on quite a high percentage of his carries. His starting OL struggled and performed near the bottom of the league and throughout the season those starters have vanished with injuries one by one to the point where last week Bitonio was the only starter on the field.
He's had three games where he could only manage 19, 26 & 36 yards rushing because teams had zero respect for our passing game and focused on loading the box and stopping him, thus leaving the team dead in the water. Ironically, the 26 yard effort came this past week against the Titans and Shedeur made them pay for that with 364 yards passing and 3 passing TD's.
If he gets an OL. One that keeps him clean at least until he gets to the LOS...and can give Shedeur a little time to make a D pay for loading up on the run, I think he'd be hell.

Absolutely ! The oline is really lacking in power, depending on the defense they play, that is an understatement. How they try to fix that in one year will be intriguing. and the WR group doesn't scare defenses, helping them load up on the run. and, IMHO, running up the middle so much on first down just makes it worse. And Sanders being able to throw downfield nicely is just an added plus.

Also need a vaguely threatening passing attack to force defenses to unload the box.
Tell this to last week's OSU play caller who for 24 plays took both Tate and Smith off the field to play OSU's TE4 Bennett Christian, who shouldn't ever see the field.
Being petty is fun and all, but even without the injuries, I'm not sure what Browns 2025 game1 starter other than Bito would start even for OSU's OL.. the same guys who got Quinshon 1k yards last season with only 15 carries a game.

Good points! While Teller didn't have his best year - he still has talent or he wouldn't have made 3 Pro Bowls. The problem is when our Guards aren't working with Tackles they can trust - it's gonna be tough sledding in a game that counts on their chemistry. Unfortunately, the Browns need better talent in both Tackle spots. One other concern is Bitonio was hinting around at retiring if the Browns were going to make 2025 a total rebuild. Well, he decided to come back. It would be nice if the Browns can get him back for 1 more season. Teven Jenkins isn't a bad backup IMO.
