5 Positives From the Browns 2017 Season

3.) Duke Johnson
Duke Johnson has emerged as the Browns best playmaker on offense despite everyone saying it was going to be Isaiah Crowell having a breakout season in a contract year with a new and improved offensive line in front of him. Johnson had a stellar year both running and catching the ball. As a rusher his 4.2 YPC would have put him in the top 20 in that category if he had enough rushes to qualify. His numbers were higher for most of the year until a tough December brought him from top five to top twenty. As a receiver he led the team by a wide margin with 74 receptions, over twice as many as the second leading receiver. He ranked fourth among all RBs in receptions and third in yards. He seemed to be the entire offense for most of the season and looks like he could be the feature back or at the very minimum a big part of the offense in 2018 because of durability concerns.
