One thing that immediately happened when the Cleveland Browns hired Jim Schwartz as their new defensive coordinator: they set out to find players to stop the run. Under former DC Joe Woods, offenses ran all over them.
Right off during free agency, the franchise signed DT Dalvin Tomlinson. Three days later, DT Maurice Hurst was signed.
The Browns already had Jordan Elliott, Ben Stille, Roderick Perry, Perrion Winfrey, Tommy Togiai, and Michael Dwumfour.
Trysten Hill was also signed as a free agent while Siaki Ika was drafted.
