Browns To Announce Berry as GM
-
While the dude is older than me, he's still only (32).
Again, Jimmy is hiring young inexperienced people to both GM and head coach and having them report to him separate. This is a toxic formula, and that Jimmy demands massive success right away it's just unrealistic. He'll get impatient and blow it up and we'll have to start over. I think he's too "proud" to do that, but what else is he to do if we can't make .500 in the next couple years.
Overall this is just pure chaos. I do not trust Jimmy and said that all back in the Pettine era.

I'm thrilled by this hire.
The Process fans have no "dumb football guys" to blame when this goes down in flames. No Hue backstabbing Sashi, no Dorsey ignoring DePodesta…
They have gotten all their boys in all the top positions. It's on.

As I said earlier, (yesterday?), three different guys directly reporting to Haslam is a recipe for disaster. They should plan to be the LAST one in his ear. That's the guy he listens to.
This set up MIGHT work ok if someone else was in Haslam's place.
BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE -
OK, another piece of the 1-31 is back in place. Should I even say that they can't do as badly this time?

It will be mighty hard to replicate that era of suckitude.... Even the sucky Bungles managed to win a couple this year (one at our expense), and the deliberately tanking Dolphins did even better than that....

But they all played football in college..... So they're all smart nerdy guys.
Gonna be a virtual love fest in the Front Office.....

If someone else was in Haslam's place, I doubt this cockamamie scheme would be in place. In the first place.
One more screw up and it's official- Haslam will have topped Dan Snyder on the bad owner scale. Some would say he's already there....... I vote he's already topped Jerry Jones on the meddlesome owner part.

Glad they got their guy at GM & things seem to be aligning. Now we can just wait & see what happens during the trading, free agency, & draft periods. I can't (and won't) judge Berry by the 1-31 past when he was here...the talent situation on the Browns is FAR different, so I',ll just say...
Now, on to OC & DC?
Mike
ps: I heard on radio today that Berry would be announced after the Super Bowl.No idea how accurate/inaccurate that may be.

I wonder if that's an Eagles thing....of course anything and everything could be a Jimmy thing. Could it be that he still wants to talk to someone from one of the superbowl teams? I mean, that would be very Jimmy-like. I can see it now, he brings in a SB guy, Berry removes his name from that hat, the SB guy say, Thanks but no thanks.....and Jimmy's left holding his pud...again.
How did I get so cynical? I'll tell ya. Jimmy & Dee. I've been conditioned.

I actually think the announcement might be an NFL thing. They probably want anything football related to not be done the week of the Super Bowl to prevent it from drawing away any attention. It's as stupid as the coaches from SB teams can not be named head coach thing.
Curious, what happens if the "brain trust" works this time? It is a completely different set of circumstances than what it was during the Sashi era. What will it take people to convince them that this is a success? Division winner? playoffs? SB? SB win? I'm just curious because I think this is going to be the most successful regime the Browns have had in 20 years but I'm in the minority on this board. People are going to lose their heads if they trade down in the first round of the draft even IF it is the correct football move.

I agree with you to a large extent. Personally, I can live with a delayed announcement about Berry during Super Bowl week, but the Coach thing is ridiculous.
It really IS a far different circumstance this time & I also believe our hierarchy will be more cohesive than in the past. Definitely a "change in culture" taking place.
Count me as one who is concerned about what we do in free agency & the draft. Admittedly, I do fear drafting strictly for "need" (questionable LT) or trading down if there is a far superior "best player available" when we come up in draft order. Of course, a lot of what we do in the draft will depend upon free agency, so we'll have to wait & see.

I don't get the hostility about Berry - Berry wanted the head coach they just hired now. Dorsey was too arrogant for me - Berry seems like a great guy for the head coach etc to work with. No stuffed shirt there.
We'll see. For the first time - it definitely seems like they are on the right track.
