So far, so good for the Cleveland Browns 2026 NFL draft class, as eight of the 10 rookies have signed their deals at the start of rookie minicamp. The NFL’s Collective Bargaining Agreement has all but eliminated holdouts for NFL draft picks, with the rare exceptions being about guaranteed money and offset language in deals.
Last year, the issues happened around second-round picks who have slowly earned fully guaranteed contracts, like first-round picks have for a while. Browns RB Quinshon Judkins
was a part of that issue.
On Friday, the first day of rookie minicamp, Cleveland announced that they have signed:
- OT Spencer Fano
- WR Denzel Boston
- OT Austin Barber
- C Parker Brailsford
- LB Justin Jefferson
- TE Joe Royer
- QB Taylen Green
- TE Carsen Ryan
That leaves WR KC Concepcion, the Browns second pick in the first round, and S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, the team’s second pick in the second round, unsigned.
