Cut List: Who would you give walking papers to?
-
Hahahaha, interesting logic: "A" costs money, so why not do "B", which costs MORE money?
-
haha I don't think we should cut 80% of our team realistically, but any new leadership wants to clean out the old and bring their own guys in.
-
Okay, let's keep in mind that cutting players and resigning players to replace them costs money...
so does signing coaches and then cutting them, so why not
so does signing coaches and then cutting them, so why not
True, but Coaches don't count against the Salary Cap, only Players do.
-
We will let the following players walk as FAs: Shaun Lauvao, Oniel Cousins, Billy Cundiff, Willis McGahee, and Brian Sanford.
Here are some of the likely players to get cut:
Brandon Weeden
Davone Bess
Gary Barnidge
Greg Little
Charles Johnson
Brandon Magee
Garrett Gilkey
Chris Ogbonnaya
Eric Martin
And I could see Ahtyba Rubin on the trade block...
It costs money to cut and replace players, but it costs even more money to keep bad players with expensive contracts...

One thing the Bengals have that the Browns dont, depth at 90% of the positions.
I mean, Jesus the Bengals have half of their defense out and still are playing better D than the Browns, cause of consistent depth. The Browns, when injured, have scrubs come in for depth, the Bengals have Vincent Rey come in and be a monster. DEPTH
We will cut alot of our 2nd-3rd stringers and basically the entire bottom 1/3rd of the team is gone, cause it sucks bad. -
I for one would keep Greg Little, keep him on the depth chart at #4-5, if he catches the ball, hes a great YAC reciever. Him over Bess for sure

Agree. I get the Anti-Little settiment but we have worse cancer on the team than him

Typical,
I've said this for a long time and in comparison to a number of organizations. The Browns have been AWFUL for years at discovering talent. We all want to point to early draft pick "ringers" or "blue chippers" as the keys to success, but one of the major factors in the success of a lot of teams that sustain success is their ability to find talent that's not a commonly recognized. The Browns are and have been AWFUL at that.

Well, considering we're going in with 10 Draft picks as of now (could be more/less) we're looking at changing out nearly 20% of the Team this May from those picks.
And this isn't even counting UDFA's or any FA signings we may make.
Could be a very different looking Team next year, as it should be by the way some of them played.
-
Do you think finding talent consistently requires having the same personnell consistenly finding the right guys to build a team?
Problem is we dont even have continuity in the front office, cant build a castle fit for a king when the builders keep tearing down the base of it every other year. -
I don't necessarily think continuity creates success. A party (FO/coach/player) could be continuously shitty at their job. Beneficial continuity? Sure, I'm all in for that. Who wouldn't be? But this idea of "letting shitty ride" simply so things don't have to change doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
-
Which is why Chud was fired, the stooges want success immediately, not to wait for it.

We just signed Sanford to a 2-year contract 6 days ago ... guess he is a good guy to have if they switch back to a 4-3.

-
Why wouldn't we switch back to a 4-3? Murphy's Law in full effect .... we should change the team name to Cleveland Muphy's Law
-
Sanfords signing was head scratcher at this point. The FO at the time had an inclinking of getting rid of Chud at that point.
-
Murphy Brown perhaps....no wait
