There are a number of possibilities, however the best clue is in your question. If, as you state "... I'm regularly watering them..." means every day or so, I think we've identified the problem. Strawberries should only receive about an inch of water or so per week. This amount is dependant on the quality of the soil and natural rainfall. If you have heavy or clay soils that don't drain very well, even less is recommended. They don't like "wet feet".

If you have heavy soil, try working in organic material and sharp sand in the fall after the plants go dormant...

You should also examine the undersides of the leaves for smallish aphids, although on otherwise healthy plants, this shouldn't be a source of the brown leaves...
