NFL expert advises the Browns to execute a risky running back trade
Kareem Hunt and Nick Chubb make up a two-headed backfield that helps the Browns' offence succeed.
However, one NFL analyst believes Cleveland needs to replace one of its top rushers.
Before Week 1 of the new season began, Bleacher Report's Brent Sobleski made some bold trade predictions. One of them is Kareem Hunt, who is headed to Atlanta.
The Cleveland Browns have the top backfield in the NFL. The team's five running backs at the moment are Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, D'Earnest Johnson, Demetric Felton Jr., and newcomer Jerome Ford.
this appears to be sufficient. The Browns might be able to keep going with one or two fewer ball carriers.
Hunt made an effort to do that early in the offseason when he demanded a trade and staged a partial hold-in while looking for a new contract. The Browns disapproved of both petitions.
But there's no denying that Chubb is the best man in Cleveland. Hunt can be a key component of another offence
and the Browns have a wealth of backfield depth that would allow them to move him for a potent return.
