Browns Have DE Corey Williams on the Trading Block?

By: Matt Loede

Are the Browns looking to move DE Corey Williams, who was brought in last year for a second round draft pick? Today’s Boston Globe reports that the team doesn’t seem to have much interest in keeping him around, and could move him by the start of the season:

The Browns are interested in trading defensive end Corey Williams, who doesn’t seem to fit in the two-gap style preferred by Eric Mangini. There were rumors earlier this preseason that the Panthers could be interested in Williams after they lost Ma’ake Kemoeatu for the season early in camp.

It seems that Williams has never been able to live up to the hype of the player the Browns thought they were getting. Last season in 16 games he had 50 tackles and just half a sack. It’s hard to believe at this point they would actually be able to get much for Williams based on what he’s shown in Cleveland to this point.
