The team is owned by idiots. And idiots do idiotic things. All they need now is Huey and Sashi and they can go 1-31 again
While Einstein might have never said this (there is a debate on that), it still holds true for this team
“The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results”
"And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve." -
So I guess that means you settle for garbage , then....
Not at all.
Berry knows and trusts this guy. Sorry if you don't approve.
We needed a helping hand. We are probably a little behind the 8-ball on time. Right now Berry and Stefanski have to spend their time grading out current team players, Who we want to keep and who we want to replace or who we will release. Also decide who we will go after in FA. That begins March 8th, so that has to be their focus for the next 2-3 weeks.
As I see it, Grigson and Depo with finish up the initial board. Not that they are setting the board. All the final scouting reports are now in. Geig and Depo will rank all the draftable players based on the scouting report grades. Any player graded undraftable are possibly UDFA candidates after the draft. They will get that sorted out...as a overall board and then the individual position group boards.
The combine will determine who needs to drop in ranking and who needs to be dropped off the board. Maybe a few players bump up on their own, plus some of the guy who didn't make the initial board might get on the board.
Then, all can get together for hours to discuss the players, why we want this guy or why we don't want this guy. Depo drops his info on various players, scouting directors advocate for or against a player...then the final board is set.
I hope we stick to the board, especially early. I see it this way on the draft. There will be 3 QB selected before our pick at #10, so we really get to pick one of the 7 best non-QBs in the draft. At least one OT will be drafted before our pick. I know people want a tackle, but when you start looking at boards across the net, can you honestly say there are two tackles in the top 7 players?
I read a good article, I will try to find and post. It graded player as super star potential, day one potential and so on down to undraftable. This was from a football guy. If we are there and pass on a player with a potential superstar grade to take a day one starter because he fills a OT need, we are making a big mistake.
I don't know who gets those grades and don't know there aren't 2-3 tackles with the highest grade range. Basically it said if multiple players at different positions are inside the various grading ranges, select the player of need in that range. If you don't, don't go to the next range down to fill a need. As you get to the 2nd round on down, the players inside a grading range increases each round. You will almost always be able to draft for need.

Sorry man. Haslam isn't a idiot. It is also a very different situation then 3-4 years ago.
We were in draft asset accumulation mode. We aren't there today. Everybody knows we have a better team than our record shows. Had the Boob Dorsey not hired the Boob Kitchens, we might have been a playoff team last year. But....Doofus wanted a yes man and hired a guy way out of his class....and I like Freddie. Freddie isn't a head coach. Freddie is a damn good assistant coach who is going to make a very nice living for as long as he wants. He knows how to coach the positions on O, and he is a likeable guy. People will listen to him, but he isn't a manager, and at head coach, you have to be a skilled manager.
Dorsey is kind of the opposite. He is a good manager, but nobody who works with him, likes him. Asshole probably best describes his management style.

So if we were in a draft accumulation mode last time these people were here, why hire them now? We need people that know how to win, not tear a team down and rebuild it
While I agree Freddie is not a head coach, who knows if Stafaski is either? Just because people say he will be doesn’t make it so. See Huey

We don't know if Stefanski is a head coach. That is the question we will have to let play out.
I guess my answer to the other question is we didn't allow those who had to take apart, rebuild.
We don't know if they can't, right? You can't rebuild and tear down at the same time. Plus, Hue was really bad at head coach.. We could have won more games than we did.

The 2 drafts that these people did have were TERRIBLE.

I might disagree. I might also add that with all the Picks Jon had, they weren't all that good.

We will just have to disagree.
But I’m of the opinion that more Browns fans are very skeptical of this garbage then except what they are doing is going to work

Cool. I respect other opinions. I know we have never talked that I can recall other than lately. I am a come and go poster. I have been here a good while. I am friends with many of the Mods and others. They might disagree with some of my opinions, but they know I am a true fan and a fun guy to have at the tailgate.
Any who want to vouch are welcomed. Heck, when I first met Westside Steve, the SOB reached out a kissed me on the lips. Still not sure how I feel about that. LOL

That's absolutely brilliant! When you don't know what to do, you consult with Grigson and do the opposite. Simple!

Saw this blurb on USA Today. We can only hope this is the case....
"The exact nature of Grigson’s role is unknown. He does have GM experience and knows Berry, so he could have value as a sounding board and mentor for the precocious new head of the Browns operations. Based on his career as a talent evaluator, Grigson probably shouldn’t have much to do with actual scouting or decision-making."
He's only going to be one voice in the room anyway when it comes to talent evaluation- I'm sure everyone else there is well aware of the Trent Richardson fiasco, and him forgetting a decent OL was a good idea, instead of sending Andrew Luck into early retirement.
-
Who knows if that is what will happen. Maybe they/we will all get lucky and have a repeat of the Steelers 1974 draft.
OK, trivia question: what is it about the Steelers 1974 draft that makes me say that?

Basically, I'm having less and less faith in our new front office.
After Richardson had floundered for a year in Indy Grigson said that he would absolutely make the trade all over again. And when news of Berry (part of our 1-31 gang) agreeing to be our GM broke, the Eagles couldn't drive him to the airport fast enough. (I forget which media person reported that on 92 The Fan - Chris SomethingOrOther)

Beyond a doubt- this sort of stuff seriously concerns me.
Regarding Betelguese going supernova in our lifetime, it would be quite a show. Might be visible in the daytime? Get real- easily visible in the daytime, even in the summer with the sun close by. Some estimates say as bright as the full moon, but still a relative pinpoint of light. The one thing missing on my lifetime Astronomy resume. We're overdue for a supernova in our galaxy. The last, Tycho's star- was over 500 years ago. Two bright comets- Hyakutake and Hale-Bopp, and three total solar eclipses. Well, that and if we have another Leonid meteor shower like back in the 1800s. They were coming down so fast they couldn't be counted. Eyewitnesses said it looked like it was a major snowstorm coming out of the sky.

aka 'another voice in the room'.. I listened to a Joe Schobert interview yesterday on nfl radio..joe has 2 daughters & expecting a 3rd any day now. gender they never know. He spoke like the browns were already in his past. Still works out in facility, but said Berry is scrambling getting staffs set-up but has been in contact with Joe's agent.. I say this, to say this..
As we all know this time of year, we will certainly get nothing much from a GM on their future plans.. GM's have to be more careful leaking talks to players agents. But they happen & some on purpose & Eliot Wolfe was JD's right hand man at this... kinda leads me to why a person like Grigson was maybe needed now by Berry? If your a few million short on getting Schobert signed? How could Berry get any straight answers from that same agent on any of his other LB's that are possibly available & real cost? am not saying Grigson was the right guy by no means, but am guessing Grigson still knows most these agents to get some FA & pro personal leads.. Sounds to me, Berry has had a full plate & knows the Combine is where Deals illegally get done.. or lots just don't.. we shall see.. and btw, Happy Valentines Day Gents...Now go play Cupid ?

You're right Gum. We really don't know what Grigson will be doing or what strengths of his may be utilized & how, so I'll just take a wait & see on all these happenings.

Not for free.
To read about my analysis of the Steelers 1974 NFL Draft, I needs to get paid.
$3.50 sounds about right.
