# Colin Cowherd: Cowherd ranks the top ten offseason moves so far, headed by Myles Garrett to the Rams, and makes a series of related predictions: Kyler Murray's Vikings win about ten games, AJ Brown pops in New England and should be drafted second among fantasy receivers, Malachi Fields is productive as a rookie, and Cleveland wins around seven games. **Claimed:** Jun 2, 2026 **Pundit:** Colin Cowherd — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/colin-cowherd **Outlet:** The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/the-herd-with-colin-cowherd-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air or in an interview **Original:** https://omny.fm/shows/the-herd-with-colin-cowherd/the-herd-hour-2-top-10-nfl-offseason-additions-nick-wright 4 checkable claims — 2 season win totals, 1 depth chart call and 1 fantasy ranking — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 2 and below it on 1. > AJ Brown top four yards and touchdowns in two run centric offenses. He is gonna pop in New England. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Cleveland Browns to finish with 7 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Cleveland Browns - Verdict: not settled yet - **Minnesota Vikings to finish with 10 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Minnesota Vikings - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jaylen Waddle to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Jaylen Waddle, Denver Broncos - Verdict: not settled yet - “Fantasy Football guys draft AJ Brown number two most underrated pick on the offseason.” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Cleveland Browns — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/browns - Minnesota Vikings — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/vikings - Jaylen Waddle — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jaylen-waddle - Denver Broncos — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/broncos ## What others said about the same people - Jason Harmon on Max Brosmer: Harmon expects the Vikings' quarterback room to stay intact while Kyler Murray is hurt, and predicts Max Brosmer will be released and re-signed to the practice squad since Minnesota won't carry four QBs. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/fa393501-3f38-481e-8e75-48125587e911 (scored 0) - Logan Lazarczyk on Kirk Cousins: Ahead of the trade deadline, they float three Raiders moves: shipping Kirk Cousins to Minnesota if the Vikings offer a second-round pick, selling Maxx Crosby to Dallas for a first-rounder plus, and acquiring Jaguars receiver Brian Thomas Jr. for a second- or third-round pick. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/d0fd408a-7dcd-4e50-ac62-6b4510a8a800 (scored 100) - Logan Lazarczyk on Kirk Cousins: Lazarczyk expects the Raiders to be sellers before the trade deadline, suggesting Kirk Cousins could be dealt back to the Vikings and that benched interior lineman Jackson Powers-Johnson is a prime candidate to be traded somewhere. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/fda03952-2ea6-4919-8114-0ebb127478d1 (scored 100) - Chad Jensen on Jordan Turner: Jensen predicts Daiyan Henley's arrival will cut into Justin Strnad's snaps while Alex Singleton keeps playing virtually every down, and that Denver will return to a three-linebacker rotation after the Week 10 bye.
