The Browns didn't franchise tag Pryor (finger), but team executive Sashi Brown calls signing him "a priority", Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

While the Browns opted to not place the franchise tag on Pryor, they still have a week to sign him before he's officially a free agent. The team is hoping to workout a long-term contract with the breakout wideout, who had 1,007 yards and four touchdowns on 77 catches this past season in what was his first year as a wide receiver. Pryor is still recovering from the finger surgery he underwent in mid-January, and he's expected to be a full go for the start of offseason workouts in April.
