    Yep.....one way to look at it is that we aint winning anything soon and, with a bunch of older guys starting, it just slows down the process for finding and developing the kids....

    Draft some, sign some and let em play.....

    There's a lot to be said for a group of young players coming in. Speed and hunger along with a willingness to be coached can go far. JT and Josh around as a good veteran influence wouldn't hurt either. Bring in the kids and let em earn the big money instead of paying it up front.

    Seems like as good of a place as any for this sobering Tom Reed article...

    On Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and the ultimate test of NFL patience: Tom Reed

    So it's noteworthy that an owner who's changed regimes three times during his four years with the Browns is leading the most audacious experiment the NFL has witnessed in recent memory. He's entrusting his team to a Harvard-educated, analytics-driven front office that many around the league want to see fail.

    Other than that it's just business as usual in Berea.

    As Paul DePodesta and Sashi Brown begin to tear down the roster and build through the draft, it's anyone's guess as to whether the plan succeeds. Maybe the biggest test, however, will be Jimmy Haslam's patience.

    How will a man who becomes more red faced than Chief Wahoo after a loss in September handle a long-term project that should carry the slogan: Check Back With Us In 2018.
