25-Year-Old
2023 Fantasy Outlook

Staying in Jacksonville
Cleveland and the Jaguars agreed Thursday on a three-year, $28.5 million contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Cleveland's contract includes $14.5 million guaranteed, and keeps a capable left guard around for Jacksonville for the foreseeable future. The Jaguars acquired Cleveland from the Vikings last season in a mid-season trade, and it's clear that the team always intended to re-sign him.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
High interest from Browns?
Cleveland is of strong interest to the Browns, as the team may select him with a trade down in the first round, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Standig cites "multiple sources" as confirming the team's increasing infatuation with Cleveland, who significantly improved his draft stock with a dominant performance at the combine back in February. Standig's colleague Dane Brugler projects the Boise State product as likely to go between late in the first round and early in the second; meanwhile, the Browns' first two picks come at No. 10 and No. 41, meaning grabbing Cleveland without overreach or risk of losing him will likely require a trade down into the latter portion of the first round. Standig notes the Browns could fortunately have some willing partners in the form of teams trying to trade up for one of the top four tackles or an elite receiver.
