    31 new faces means we have 22 carryover players from last year, plus....

    Alphabetically:

    1-Joel Bitonio, 2-Briean Boddy-Calhoun, 3-James Burgess Jr., 4-Trevon Coley, 5-Jamie Collins Sr., 6-Britton Colquitt, 7-Seth DeValve, 8-Myles Garrett, 9-Zane Gonzalez, 10-Josh Gordon*, 11-Rashard Higgins, 12-Charley Hughlett, 13-Duke Johnson Jr., 14-Derrick Kindred, 15-Christian Kirksey, 16-David Njoku, 17-Emmanuel Ogbah, 18-Larry Ogunjobi, 19-Jabrill Peppers, 20-Joe Schobert, 21-JC Tretter, 22-Kevin Zeitler.

    That's not a bad start folks, & we have added several KEY pieces this past off season through trade, free agency, & the draft...1-Genard Avery, 2-Antonio Callaway, 3-T.J. Carrie, 4-Nick Chubb, 5-Darren Fells, 6-E.J. Gaines, 7-Chris Hubbard, 8-Carlos Hyde, 9-Jarvis Landry, 10-Baker Mayfield, 11-Damarious Randall, 12-Chris Smith, 13-Drew Stanton, 14-Tyrod Taylor, 15-Denzel Ward

    I just prefer to look at what we have kept & GAINED rather than what we lost. I listed 37 & haven't yet mentioned all. This Browns' Team is definitely looking up the way I see it.

      From a 1-15 and 0-16 team that is definitely good news.

      GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

            I have really high Hope's for this season. If we aren't competing for the playoffs it's a disappointment.

            Also Baker should start

              I think I'd freak out if they said "hey we're all back again!".

              Tough schedule,  game #1 will be important next week to kick this thing off at home.

                The Browns are for real - they now have the talent, where they didn't have the right talent before.

                and they know it, and I can't wait til they show it by winning their first game.

                and their second...and third...right down the line.

                It will be a new "Do you believe in miracles?" only the NFL.

                That's what I'm expecting - you betcha.

                  I’m going to be very optimistic and Pray our OL is decent enough to establish a better than average running game. The defense looks pretty good in pre season so my guess we win 5 or 6 games?

                  Question: Why did the Browns get a tougher schedule than the Patriots? 

                  Answer: To ensure New England, whose in the worst division in the NFL, another appearance in the Super Bowl.

                  Here’s to the Browns 2018 season & the genius who stopped Hue from trading for AJ McCarron

                  ???

                      Unfortunately we still have Hue as HC.

                          Naw, schedules set by the NFL rotation system, but yeah it's tough on paper for sure.

                          I predict the city's going to be sky high by 430pm this Sunday.

                            It’s all about who plays in your division. New England plays in a crappy division or none of those teams are ever any good or ever give New England any competition. Whereas in the AFC North the teams are often very good and often give a lot of competition so that is why the Browns always have a tougher schedule than New England ???????

                                Good test of Ghoolie philosophy............... We have disagreed for awhile, but, proof ot the pudding is in the eating..............

                                I SAY - Any Jackoffs can step in and play OL

                                I SAY -It is the SKilled players on offense that make or break the team, and the OL

                                So, according to this article and the one I posted yesterday, we know 2 things....................

                                1) The OL is not settled and we may have an undrafted free agent starting in Joe THomas's position

                                2) It looks like we have improved in the area of Skilled players.

                                So, now we see. Personally, I think Hue's dink-and-dump offense and lack of discipline on the field  will stifle the team. But it will be interesting for sure.

                                  1) The OL is not settled and we may have an undrafted free agent starting in Joe THomas's position

                                  2) It looks like we have improved in the area of Skilled players.

                                  So, now we see. Personally, I think Hue's dink-and-dump offense and lack of discipline on the field  will stifle the team. But it will be interesting for sure.

                                  Good test of Ghoolie philosophy............... We have disagreed for awhile, but, proof ot the pudding is in the eating..............

                                  I SAY - Any Jackoffs can step in and play OL

                                  I SAY -It is the SKilled players on offense that make or break the team, and the OL

                                  So, according to this article and the one I posted yesterday, we know 2 things....................

                                  1) The OL is not settled and we may have an undrafted free agent starting in Joe THomas's position

                                  2) It looks like we have improved in the area of Skilled players.

                                  So, now we see. Personally, I think Hue's dink-and-dump offense and lack of discipline on the field  will stifle the team. But it will be interesting for sure.

                                  You dedicated the name of one of your threads to your public panic attack about what Hue did to the OL.

                                  Okay, I'll play.

                                  What year was Joe Thomas a Rookie?

                                  What year did we go 10-6 this side of 99? 

                                  What was the only year Joe Thomas missed a start to injury and ended up on IR?

                                  What was the only year we didn't win a game?

                                  How many years did Joe Thomas start at LT?

                                  How many Pro Bowls did he earn?

                                  How many LTs in our storied history made 10 consecutive Pro Bowls?

                                  If Gale Sayers and D Butkus (both 1st round picks in the same draft for the Bears) never had a winning season or played in 1 playoff game in their entire career - does it mean they were the worst first round picks in franchise history?   If so, why did both guys make it into the NFL Hall of Fame as easily as Joe Thomas will?

                                  For those of you that weren't here back in 2007 - Ghoolie predicted we'd go 0-16.  Instead, we carried a career backup QB like DA to 10 wins in 15 starts with 29 TD passes, Braylon Edwards caught 16 TD passes in his only Pro Bowl Season, KWII made the Pro Bowl at TE, Jamal Lewis had 1300 yards rushing and 9 TDs just 1 year after Baltimore gave up on his dead legs...  And, it was the only time he had a quality LG like Eric Steinbach next to him until Joel Bitonio arrived.  In case anyone forget how that went, we got off to a 7-4 start nobody saw coming with Brian Hoyer at QB.  The 2 years Bitonio had seasons cut short to injury didn't go as well.  No need to hurt yourself overthinking it...

                                  I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!"

                                      I think Tom's actually getting hopeful about this team. But I understand it completely. I'm doing my best to remain calm about how long it may take Jimbo Fisher to produce a team that can actually stay on the field with Bama, LSU, Auburn and this weekend Clemson. I think it takes 3-4 years of recruiting like he has going right now, just about even with Bama. But an upset over one of those this year would sure be nice, just like an upset over the Squealers would be nice to start the season.

                                        I seriously don't understand our latest roster moves. We cut Nassib and Meder, among other productive players, only to sign bozos with little to no future in the league. I don't get it.

                                          I think they want to flyers on high upside "experiments" on the bottom of the roster. Remember only 46 guys dress on Sundays, so these bottom of the roster guys aren't expected to do much in 2018, they are flyers on the future.

                                          However, I too am a little concerned with depth at DE ... Chris Smith is the only veteran backup, then we have the rookie Thomas and the new obiedobie name from the Vikings. But were Nassib and Orchard really that good? Can Smith and these two rookies fill their spot? It probably won't be noticeable ... unless injuries happen.
