    I would consider Rich McKay or Tony Dungee.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

    false.

  • so...... is Kosar actually qualified for this job.... other than very strong tries to Cleveland and the Browns?

    seriously.

  • from another fan site....for anyone else (like me) that wasn't aware..

    The newest rumor I'm hearing out of Berea (and none of this has been verified yet) is that Accorsi is coming in to Cleveland not to become the GM but to work with Kosar so that he will be groomed for the job. Kosar has run a football team before (Arena league) so he does have a little experience - not in the NFL though. Also the arena team he ran went from a last place team to a playoff team in one year. I'm not saying that this qualifies him for the job yet, but with Accorsi to groom him I think it might work.

    any more details re: this?

  • Formerly Stone said:

    This makes you wonder if Kosar's bankruptcy was all part of the plan?

    how so?

    What we're seeing here in 2010 is precisely what happened in NE a decade ago. It worked for them then, and it wiill work for us now. Why? Because it's the only way it's ever worked in pro football. Just ask Paul Brown. Or Vince Lombardi. Or Tom Landry. .02, Clemdawg

    So, it sounds like Randy boy hired a three ring circus for a front office. Dare I say, menage a trois?

    Nice job, Randy. The idiots are running the asylum.

    Give him a little slack... this thing could have lasted 3 or 4 years..he started investigating them in September?

    I am actually proud that he is paying enough attention to know some sheit was going very wrong...and thsi was all done before the hge public outcry ...so its not a knee jerk reaction

    someone was doing some dirty behind the scenes and randy is not tolerating more of the BS...

    You mean MORE years, Destin.

    It is ten years and counting right now.

    Give me a break..........Jim Brown!!

    I believe an NFL franchise can do no better - on the field or off the field - than having Tony Dungy associated with it. Not sure if Dungy wants to get back into football. He does so much good off the field too. Only one way to find out and I suggest Lerner finds out.

    Not sure what Casserly is up to these days. He graduated from Cathedral High School in Springfield, MA so the papers used to give him pretty good coverage. I haven't read about him lately so I am not sure of his status.

    Take out Kosar and the great, great Jim Brown and you listed an impressive array of names.

    Hands down, the dumbest post in my nearly 15 years being associated with 'this' board.

    "God is great. Beer is good. People are crazy."

  • I think Kosar is a great football mind, but not GM material. Certainly BK would surround himself with "people in the know" to help him out, but I think he's there simply to help out on offensive schemes, maybe even take over Daboll's job.

    I doubt if BK has enough knowledge about college draft prospects.

    I was being sarcastic when I mentioned Jim Brown and John Madden. And threw Kosar in their because all the rumors floating around.

    I agree Tony Dungy would be my first choice, if we can lure him out of retirement
