The Cleveland Browns would be wise to sign these three ex-Cleveland Browns players.

The Cleveland Browns have said goodbye to lof players this offseason. Guys fans will always remember like JC Tretter and Jarvis Landry, while other guys were less noteworthy but still valuable like Porter Gustin and Rashard Higgins.

This isn’t new or shocking, every NFL team releases players every year. Some retire, others move to other teams while others still move to other leagues. There’s always turnover and with turnover and departures comes the possibility of reunions.

It’s not the most likely of things to happen but a player returning to the team he made his bones with is always a possibility. Randy Moss returned to the Vikings, Darrelle Revis to the Jets, Charles Woodson back to the Raiders, and Julius Peppers to the Panthers.

It’s not the norm, it’s simply possible. So when we think about guys who can still help the Cleveland Browns and have been former players, just know that I don’t think they will return to the team, only that their return makes sense.

This is not a complete squad yet, and they still need some depth at key positions. Relying on so many rookies and young players when you’re a built-to-win now squad is just peculiar. The Browns are a team that needs known commodities. The rookies and second-year players are not going to provide that reassurance.

So I found three names who can help the squad now.
