Browns GM Andrew Berry differentiates approach from past regimes
Summary

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry is taking a distinctly different path from previous executives like Sashi Brown. Since the start of the 2025 NFL draft, Berry has focused on the future with strategic trades and player extensions, while avoiding a complete roster overhaul. Unlike prior tactics aimed at bottoming out for higher draft picks, Berry has actively retained key players such as Denzel Ward and Grant Delpit, emphasizing a balance between aggression in talent acquisition and roster stability. Observers await the results of Berry's philosophy as the team prepares for the upcoming season, including a critical decision on the starting quarterback.
