I think it's time to blow up the team.

    Right now there is no way possible of us contending for a playoff spot. So time for a fire sell.

    1. Get rid of the GM - Farmer he hasn't done anything for this team. All picks been wasted picks.

    2. Get rid of Manziel for any pick possible or just cut your lost.

    3. Get rid of Gordon (Hate doing this), but has all the talents of a #1 WR. So has some value when he gets reinstated. I would think 3rd or 2nd round pick, but probably more likely a 4th.

    4. Get rid of that worthless CB that we picked up in the draft before Manziel I can't remember his name. I would think we should get 5th round or 6th round pick for him.

    5. Get rid of Mack he doesn't want to be here, so make it happen and get a high pick for him.

    6. Get rid of Thomas (Hate doing this, but more of a kindness of the heart) send him to a contender. With this should get high pick and hopefully some young players if done correctly.

    7. Get rid of Haden (He thinks he is good as Revis or top 5 corner, but not.) I believe a team will give a high pick for him, and I think we can get better in that position in future.

    8. Get rid of Bowe. Just cut your loss bad GM call. Let him go the same day you let Farmer walk.

    9. Get a true GM and surround him with good evaluate-rs. I would look hard into organization with good draft records like green bay, atlanta, old browns guys, and chargers.

    Then would in the draft and free agency:

    1. Get the QB

    2. Build the lines on both sides

    3. Then get the skill players

    4. I think Pettine is the coach just doesn't have the talent.

    Farmer came in very late for the 2014 draft. Really 2015 was his first draft as he'd renovated the scouting personnel. We can't judge this draft yet for three years.

    We really do not have anything to work off of at this time. Ive seen this movie before. When Braylon Edwards and Kellen Winslow and Cribbs and that crew were hanging around people wanted to build off of what we had but then we had nothing either. What do we have worth building around? Lines? Both of our lines have looked like crap. Linebackers? No. Defensive backs? Not really. Wide Receivers? All our guys should be slot receivers. We don't have a number 1. We've got a good tight end. Ok. We've got a decent back in Duke. Ok. Quarterback situation sucks. I'm just not seeing what we have to really build on at this time.

    Lol seriously. Not even any rhyme or reason to his ideas other than to replace pretty much everyone.

    Ironically enough, his quick hitting 4 points of action at the conclusion of his post are exactly what Farmer's done....

    If issue 3 passes, slap a pot leaf on the side of their helmets and rename em The Stoners. At least then we could just laugh at em instead of crying for the next 50 years.

    When we fired Chud I was not unhappy because I thought his record warranted it. In reality he was given Weedon as qb and Richardson as rb and not a whole lot of talent and given less than 12 months on the job and sacked. It was wrong. I had hoped we could get a good replacement for Chud but there was a reason it took so long to get a replacement, we had too many good coaches who did not want the job. I'm sure some of that is the futility that has been the Browns since 99 but also some of it may have been a concern if they took the job they would not be given enough time to turn things around before being canned. Some of the coaches names being tossed around sound good but that does not mean they would take the job if offered.

    I'm for staying the course and not blowing things up. The only thing I would change is from "Play like a Brown" to "Play like the multimillionaire athelete you are being paid to be or the checks might stop coming".

    Definitely the best idea yet.

    I guarantee it won't. Mingo is gone, that's it.

    Scary but true, can't believe some people thought this team was playoff bound

    Right! It's that easy!

    Cut/Trade everyone. Get great value for them all. Replace our staff with a better staff. Make 14 great drafts picks. And then start winning!

    That easy!

    We just did blow up the team 2 years ago.

    Some Browns fans have a really short term memory.

    It's starting to look like Malcom Brown & Lael Collins should have been drafted. It also sucks that Derek Carr is getting good.

    Well its not that bad of an idea if this wizard thinks we're getting a bunch of high draft picks out of a bunch of guys that can't play on his team. And cutting the guys with guaranteed contract is another brilliant idea. Just throw the money on a pile with some lighter fluid...

    Oh yes, and get the quarterback? Which one? Why not just take about 5 or 6 with all these number one picks we're getting from the bums?
