The Cleveland Browns will be watching the playoffs in the same place as last year – at home on their own big screen TV sets.

The playoffs this year will look a lot different, with a few surprise teams not getting into the postseason such as the Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens, and Detroit Lions.
But that is how the NFL is set up. Their system allows the weaker clubs to become bette,r and before you know it, they are doing well like the Chicago Bears and Denver
Broncos. Nobody had either team in this year’s playoff bracket.
And while Browns fans won’t be seeing their own favorite team perform and advance, there are plenty of former players who are gracing other rosters.
In fact, there could almost be a complete offensive unit of just former Cleveland signalcallers: Jacoby Brissett, Jeff Driskel, Nick Mullen, Kenny Pickett, Casey Keenum, Tyler Huntley, Josh Dobbs, Joe Flacco, Josh Johnson, and Jameis Winston, in addition to Baker Mayfield.
Here is a compilation of former Browns who could fill out a complete offense, defense, and special teams. This is not every former player, but rather the best at their position as an active member of their respective ball club.
