Here is the Cleveland Browns cash spend per player position in from 2020 to 2030.
It is important to remember that the first year of cash in a deal is usually larger than the average per year on a free agency deal. Here are some of Andrew Berry's larger additions:
Dalvin Tomlinson, $14.25m APY > $16.415m Year One Cash
Jack Conklin, $14m APY > $20m Year One Cash
John Johnson, $11.25m APY > $13.25m Year One Cash
Austin Hooper, $10.5m APY > $11.5m Year One Cash
There are some cases where a large amount of cash is paid to a player who isn't on the 53 man roster. Mayfield in 2022 is an example of this where they paid $10.5m to trade him to the Panthers. Then this season Deshaun Watson, Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah and Martin Emerson are out injured. Where the replacements are significants cheaper, we are just calculating using this larger contract, it is shown in red in the charts.
In future years we don't have enough players to show the full projected value of the room. To balance this minimum salaries have been added for players and shown in blue.
