The Browns courted Austin Hooper by pitching him a Mark Andrews-type role

The Cleveland Browns reportedly courted tight end Austin Hooper by pitching him an offer to play the role Mark Andrews played for Baker Mayfield at Oklahoma University.

What It Means:

Andrews was a highly productive tight end prospect while playing alongside Mayfield at Oklahoma; he led the 2017 Oklahoma team in receptions (62) despite playing alongside future first-round receivers Marquise Brown and CeeDee Lamb, somewhat mirroring the Browns' current situation with both Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry. The promise of such a role helped court then-free-agent Hooper to the Browns this offseason.

Hooper played an important, high-volume role for the Atlanta Falcons last season, and is expected to be a critical component of Kevin Stefanski's offense this year. He's our TE13 heading into the 2020 season.
