Team No. 3

Cleveland Browns

At the top of the Cleveland Browns running back depth chart is Nick Chubb, one of the best running backs in the NFL today. But behind Chubb is where things might start to get a little worrisome for the Browns in 2023.

Jerome Ford and Demetric Felton Jr. will likely be competing this summer for Cleveland's No. 2 running back job behind Chubb. Last season, Ford and Felton combined to rush for a total of eight yards, so it's fair to assume that the Browns could be concerned about the current depth behind Chubb.

If he were dealt to Cleveland this year, it likely wouldn't take Dalvin Cook very long to adjust to the team's offense since it's run by the team's head coach, and former Vikings offensive coordinator, Kevin Stefanski. Cook earned his first-career Pro Bowl selection back in 2019 when Stefanski was running Minnesota's offense, so he already knows how to get the most out of the talented running back.
