    Usually around mid April but they don't announce the actual date till it gets closer but typically before the draft.    I've already got my Cleveland trip weekends picked out regardless of the Browns schedule.

    No Southern Cal trip this year.   Closest to you would be Oakland.

    And that's not exactly "close".  But would be a good opportunity to see one of the last NFL games in Oakland so there's that.

    I'll be in Cleveland in September this year.  Hopefully the schedule works out so there's a Browns game in the plans but I'm coming  back to make my first ever trip to Columbus and the horseshoe to see OSU play in person for the first time in my life.

    What makes you think that they will remotely wait that long?  I think Dorsey already has started that process....at least in the back of his mind.
