The Browns have a ton of cap space, and a really good offensive line for Peterson to run behind. Not to mention, the development of Johnny Manziel would benefit greatly from the addition of a player like Peterson, who could take a ton of pressure off of him both as a runner and receiver.
Isaiah Crowell, Terrance West, and Duke Johnson already give the Browns an intriguing young group of backs, but the Vikings might feel like one of those guys could help them right away while getting a draft pick or two in return. The price with those backs could end up being a little too steep for Cleveland, but this is something they should explore.
