    Why not offer him the job he might take it

    He can't.

    That's what "No lateral moves" means.

  • Either The team quit on Wilks or his scheme is awful or both.  There was time before Christmas I thought he would be the fall guy and get axed and Freddie would stay on for one year.

    i think there is a .0001% chance that Wilks is in Cleveland

  • Man.... I don’t know if Wilks is all that bad.

    His all pro DE center piece of his defense gets bounced. The only other pass rusher on the other side of the ball (Vernon) can’t stay on the field, Your GM traded away any DE depth you had for a worthless safety and a 4th round pick leaving you with no names,  half the games Ward played this year he looked like he couldn’t cover a JV WR, Redwine looked lost out there at times....

    Not going to say I’ll be upset if they move on, but I’ll take Wilks defense over Ray Horton or O’Neil’s

    He could if he is not under contract

    I hate to even THINK it, but I have an awful feeling that Wilks may be retained. ?

    IN DORSEY I TRUST

  • Kubiak's son could be the QB coach ......... Mike McDaniels as OC  .... if true we did end up hiring McDaniels

  • DiFillipo is available.  Just parted ways with Jags.

  • George Paton is being interviewed for OC.    Seriously,  George Paton.

    The players damned well better listen to him;

  • This George Paton  (one t)  is currently asst. GM for the Vikings.   He and Stefanski have worked together for the Vikings for 13 years.

    If this is a case of the coach picking the GM,   then that would make some sense.

    Was that the case in KC as well? 🙂

    Again....goes back to who is interviewing who?  Are the Browns interviewing  him for GM, or is he interviewing them for whether or not he would want to work here again.   If he has multiple options, as you seem to indicate, I would say it is the latter.

    "I've also been told the respect John Dorsey carries in the scouting circles is something that has impacted how many potential GMs feel/would have felt about taking an interview." 

    Well, Maybe both of the above reports have a lot to do with the George Paton consideration. While maybe few others may want to come here, Paton may want to continue working with his long time colleague, Stefanski.

    To be fair, Fox was tweeting late last night that he thinks Berry will take the Browns GM job.

  • We should have a gm about a week before the draft...give or take a few days.  Draft tips coming from local hobos in front of area businesses.  Its all coming together!!

    All I can say is look how much better KC's D has gotten this year than last. He needs to go.

    My computer protection says this is a known malicious website. Careful where you tread. I don't know why it said it because it's cbs, unless somehow something jumped in on them.

    Goes to show you....that with these reports one guy says black and the other says white.    Who knows what to believe until an actual announcement is made.
