The Cleveland Browns are reportedly eyeing a potential blockbuster trade for two big-name wide receivers.

With a mountain of cap space and two first-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns are well-positioned to make some big splashes this offseason. The Browns are already said to be targeting pending free agent quarterback Malik Willis and Alabama QB Ty Simpson.

Additionally, a new report indicates that Cleveland GM Andrew Berry is exploring a possible trade for not one, but two young star receivers.

According to Jared Mueller of SB Nation’s Dawgs By Nature site, the Cleveland Browns are eyeing New Orleans Saints star Chris Olave and Arizona Cardinals wideout Marvin Harrison Jr.:

“Berry is well respected for his process, including being very straightforward about his discussion, price points, and desires. He’s also considered persistent and resilient in that he’ll revisit trade ideas from the previous trade deadline just a few months later to see if they can happen again.

“WR Chris Olave is an example of that and is back on the Browns trade radar. I may have called WR Marvin Harrison “the Trent Richardson of receivers” to a few film and scout guys I trust…and didn’t get much push back…

He’s also a player Berry has at least touched base on acquiring to help Cleveland’s issues at the position. Many wonder if he has the physical traits to be the dominant player he was at Ohio State, with almost zero certainty given his lack of predraft testing.

Olave is just 25 and coming off a career year in New Orleans, notching 100 receptions for 1,163 yards and nine touchdowns. Harrison Jr. had 41 receptions for 608 yards and four touchdowns in 12 games.

Rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. was Cleveland’s leading receiver with 72 catches for 731 yards and six touchdowns. Indeed, they could use some help at wide receiver.

The Browns fired two-time Coach of the Year Kevin Stefanski after another disappointing season. The pressure is on Berry to turn this team around ASAP. Otherwise he could be out of a job after next year.

With a pair of first-round picks (Nos. 6 and 24), Cleveland should be able to find a couple of impact starters. If they can figure out the QB situation and the wide receiver rooms? Making the playoffs in 2026 isn’t so far-fetched.

The AFC North looks to be wide-open in 2026, with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals all facing more questions than answers. If Berry plays his cards right, the Browns could make a run at the division.
