An Honest Question: What is it about this FO....
-
This should be interesting.

You can have a good set up let's say a McDonald's that you own and the manager of the place has bad clock managment and continuously burns the food. and you can't manage the workers (players) correctly like having the janitor work the cash register. That McDonald's will fail.
-
Yes fire the manager hue. Keep the rest intact

This has been answered very thoroughly in several different places. Open your eyes and read. This thread is just a waste of board space.

Also, I’d love to hear your detailed analysis of why firing everyone would work? Extra points if you do it WITHOUT crediting Sashi (like “we have a great base of young talent, now if we could just.....”).

we DONT have a great base of young talent though, and he is partly responsible for that.

Wargo has admitted that the overwhelming reason he wants this front office to get another season isn't because he's impressed with the job they are doing so far, but because this team has to show people that you can get more than two seasons before you are fired.
It's pointless to argue with him, regarding this subject, if this is what he's basing his want of a third year for the current front office.

well not only that, but his argument fails at face value because he assumes the other option is default failure. So he's set up this scenario, for the purpose of the argument, that even is sashi is given another year or two and continues to make bad calls on draft picks and the roster continues to suck, then he will just shrug and say "well I wasn't wrong because the other way would have produced the same results"....which of course is the ridiculous part of the argument.
Additionally, this team and this regime over the last two seasons has been SO HISTORICALLY BAD that even if we continue to suck for the next two years, SOME improvement is possible. Simply due to a regression to the mean in terms of results. Our pythag has been incredibly bad over the last 2 years, but not 1 win total bad.....so in a way sashi and hue have been so historically bad that even if they continue to suck and the results simply regress to the mean(4-12, 5-11) for sucking, these idiots can say "see, we are better".....

The funny thing is, there's a big contingency on this board that wants a complete overhaul of the organization. New front office, new coaching staff.
For reasons I don't even understand, I wouldn't be upset if everyone came back for 2018. I think there's a morbid curiosity factor going on for me.

Pleading the 5th here. While I'm with many here that is frustrated as hell, I do see some young talent.
IF Peyton Manning is getting hired, as say the President of operations, he will interview these guys, and learn the philosophy or plan they (DePodesta, Sashi) speak of. At that point he may offer an alternative plan or suggestion to those two, or blow it up and can them both.
I'm of the belief Haslam does want Peyton here. He'd be the "football guy" so many are clamoring for. It may be a brilliant hire, or a PR move. Rest assured, Peyton doesn't want to suck.
My gut feeling is Sashi stays and they have him focus more on contract stuff. Hue stays as well, gets a nudge or 2 about delegating his OC duties.

Bob, good post & your reasoning makes sense.

This is exactly what i've been preaching. Bring in Manning or a person to evaluate talent. Manning obviously knows QB's better than the people we have currently picking talent. To me it's a no brainer if he's willing to be a part of the team. Sashi's done a great job with getting picks and contracts, but it doesn't mean a thing if Andrew Berry can't pick talent worth jack. We can have all of the #1 picks in the world, but we'll never have a competitive team if we continue missing on Talent. Hue needs and OC too. This is what i've been preaching (and arguing all along). So we see eye-to-eye Bob.

why firing everyone
Don't strawman him, He just argued about firing Hue.
I say keep everyone and I agree that next year we need to see results or it'll be hard to defend "the process".
Jimmy said we might not be competitive this year, but we sure as hell will be in 2018 and 2019. If the Browns remain 60 million under in cap space both of those years and don't add free agents then there's no reason to believe the process is working. But i'll wait until next year to talk or nitpick about that right now.

We also need an offensive coordinator

He's going by the old investment disclaimer- past performance is no guarantee of future results. MHO? It's merely a question of how much losing Jimmy is willing to tolerate before he blows it up again. 2-3 wins fueled by Josh Gordon's return MIGHT save everyone. 0-16? Somebody is going to get canned. Bet the ranch on it.

Yep-nobody can go 1-31 and have things remain status quo. Nobody. Would it bother me to see a new HC? Nope. He's one of the poorest gameday NFL coaches I've ever seen. Zero clock management skills. Zero. And as I've said multiple times, the sooner he insists on a quality OC the more likely he is to stay.

I don't think Hue has been set up for success by this front office, and an argument could be made that this was done on purpose. Not saying the FO has been trying to sabotage Hue, but winning NOW obviously isn't the top priority. I get this.
But Hue hasn't exactly helped himself either. He's made decisions that are just flat-out baffling at times.

He can always use Bill Belichicks excuse.. ''All plays are designed to score touchdowns"
