GM for a day!
-
Own FA/Roster Moves:
- Resign Ward and Mack
- Resign Joe Haden -- Probably would give the Browns an addition $1 to $2 million for this years FA
- Restructure Jackson
- Cut Ahtyba Rubin -- Savings of close to $7 Million in Cap Space (Winn, Hughes, Bryant, and Bryant pick up the slack)
Scheme:
- Offensive - Predominantly Two TE, Shotgun Sets, Flex Cameron out into the slot often
- Defensive - Keep the 3-4 and bring in Wade Phillips as DC
- Special Teams - Get a guy to teach basics, also tell the FO to stop tinkering with end of the roster which kills ST continuity... Also just put Benjamin back at KR, he has shown flashes and the offense rarely uses him
Free Agency:
Sign Jon Asamoah, RG, from the Kansas City Chiefs
Sign Eric Decker, WR, from the Denver Broncos
Sign John Kuhn, FB, from the Green Bay Packers
Sign Joe Mays, ILB, from the Houston Texans
Draft:
1A - QB Johnny Manziel, Texas A&M
1B - CB Justin Gilbert, Oklahoma State
2A - TE Austin Sefarian-Jenkins, Washington

2B - ILB Shane Skov, Stanford
3B - OT JaWuan James, Tennessee
4A - RB Terrance West, Towson
5 - WR Josh Huff, Oregon
6 - S Nickoe Whitley, Mississippi State
7 - QB Logan Thomas, Virginia Tech

Not bad and realistic.

Kuhn would be a good FA pick up

you would take gilbert over Dennard at CB or are you presuming that Dennard would already be off the board?
-
I would opt to get a CB in FA this year.
-
Sign Derek Anderson, Seneca Wallace and Colt McCoy to compete with Hoyer for the starting spot.
-
IF my last name was Lombardi (which it isn't), I would ask Banner to FIRE my sorry ass & get a REAL GM in here!

Dennard probably wouldn't be there at that point in the draft so I would go with Gilbert since his size is better than Verrett or Joyner.... Roby may be another option since Ekpre-Olomu is staying and that may cause Gilbert to rise.
The defense is largely the same as this year but I hope the D-Coordinator can change results. This D was an anomaly with a bunch of weird conflicting statistics, which I predicted the combo of Gilbert and Skov/Mays (rotation) could change.
-
okay lets say Haslem fires people and hires you. what kind of damage control would you do?
-
Step 1: Cut everybody and sign Tim Tebow. Let him play all eleven positions on each side of the ball.
Step 2: ?
Step 3: Profit
-
Sign Mack and Ward. Cut Luavou, Little, Bess, Weeden And everyone else who is a free agent. Hire Whisenhunt and figure out which QB were going after.

Agreed, but on top of that use some of the cap space this year to tie down next year's FAs, particularly Haden, but also Cameron and Taylor. I think Sheard is a FA as well?

Since we are moving into the offseason without a coach or QB. Let us entertain ourselves. With all of Draft Picks this year and our 20M cap, what would you do. There are plenty of Draft threads and talk so lets leave that our of it but keep it in mind we already drafted and plugged some holes. What are your top priorities in FA and the current roster?
Here is a list of FA's.
http://nfltraderumors.co/2014-nfl-free-agents/
Here is my stab at it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Resign Mack, Haden, Greco
Resign TJ if we can't get a better FA pick-up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let all our FA's walk and test the market.
Release the following Bess, Little, Weeden (or restructure contract for peanuts), Carder, Cousins, Lavou.
FA targets for me would be
No QB FA
RB - McFadden, john Kuhn, Brandon Jacobs.
WR - Golden Tate, Hakeem Nicks
OL- Jarek Veldheer, Jon Asamoah
LB - Brandon Spikes, Brian Orakpo
CB- Verner, Talib, Brent Grimes
S- Byrd, Brandon Meriweather
These are TARGETS.
I think with the roster we have FA pick ups from above and the Draft we should have a bad ass roster.

what about Jon Asamoah? You've been talking about upgrading the O line and Asamoah is a top ten guard who is only 25 years old.
