    been pretty patient, but now is the time.

    we've had 3 years(now going into the 4th) of drafts and player acquisitions since 'starting over' going into the 2014 season.

    Its time for the process to pay off.

    Year 2 of the most "recent" rebuild....cause Jimmy restarts every 2 years.....

    I will say that the Farmer did get our current core group started and several of our BEST younguns come from the 13-14 drafts....

    Mainly Bito....Kirksey....Shelton....Duke......and(fingers crossed) Orchard?

    We picked 18 players in those 2 drafts.......Shashi has just selected 24 players in his first 2 drafts....so, expecting at least 6 additional quality core players to emerge just to be equal with Farmers dismal record.....and it should be more, if these drafts are going to prove out as successes

    These guys have been on the job for 16 months. They've assraped the Patriots, Steelers, Texans and Panthers for draft picks, stole Jamie Collins, re-signed our key talent, rebuilt the offensive line in a day, just drafted three starters in the first round and may have snared the QB with the highest ceiling in the draft.

    Fuck y'all who are not paying attention. Talk about Butch Davis, Randy Savage and Ray Farmer some more.

    OUTSTANDING post Z! Getting picks from NE & Puke city for Mingo & Gilbert were outstanding. They have done a great job in a very short time.

    Yes, of this current regime. But usually when you talk about a rebuild, you are rebuilding from a team that had been good...then got bad, and you are trying to build it into being good again. In the Browns case, we are rebuilding from a bad team...that stayed bad and got bad.

    I just hope this version of a rebuild actually becomes just that: something built into something good.

    The operative term is "maybe". But we have ridden in that rodeo before. I am looking for a "Yes"...and not a maybe. And I hope you are right...that this becomes a Yes.

    Then what you are saying is, we will be a better team than the Steelers, Patriots, Texans and Panthers?

    I have been paying closer attention than you. You spend too much time sticking your gnarled up, wrinkled, pimple infested dick into the beach in gay Florida to know dick about football. Having the most draft picks translates into jack shit. The Browns are 1 - 19 under Hue Jackoff.

    Hope all you want, but this Wunder-team hasn't added a single playmaker in two years. With Garrett soon to be in IR, this team is worse than last years shit pile. Ass Raping the Patriots................ LMAO............... Yeah, THe Browns got the best of Belichik. LMAO.........what's next Zomblow? Oprah Winfat is hot?

    Browns DID get the better end of a couple of deals with the Patriots over 1 or 2 players. Collins is better than Sheard and Mingo combined. But, no, that does not mean those "minor" deals make the Browns better than the Patriots. I don't think Z implied that. (If they had traded for Tom Brady...that could be a different matter)

    Browns DID get the better end of the deal with the Steelers in the Justin Gilbert trade. (Getting anything for him makes it a better deal). That does not mean that that deal makes the Browns better than the Steelers. I don't think Z implied that. (If they traded for Ben R. that would be a different matter)

    I don't think there is any doubt the Browns got the better end of the Texans trade. We got B.O....who, sure, may be questionable as a QB... but at least he is something for the Browns to try that may be better than what they had. Plus they got a 2d round draft pick...and gave up what? A 4th rounder and some cash? Who cares about the cash if your name is not Jimmy Haslam (and he don't care about it). And jut giving up a 4th round pick for a 2d alone makes it a good deal...even without B.O. thrown in.

    I don't think that Z implied that that deal alone makes us better than the Texans. (though...it may mean that the Browns actually have a better QB situation than the DATs. What group of QBs do you like best: Brock Osweiler and DeShone Kizer, or Tom Savage and DeShaun Watson? I think I would take our group...maybe)

    As for the Panthers....I guess I don't recall that deal. What was that deal?

    Ah! OK. Yes, that WAS a steal. What did we get for him? A 4th round pick....and picked up a better punter off the street to replace him?

    Was that pick in this last draft...and if so who did we take? Or was that for a future pick?

    We get the 4th from Carolina in 2018. We gave them Lee & a 7th in 17 in which Carolina traded it to Seattle..We also received P Kasey Redfern from Panthers at trade.Redfern was kicking cans as a FA, now a camp leg with Detroit

    As one of the relatively new people here, I find it unusual for me to be in the glass half full sector. Just something about all this that makes me think that if they stick to a 5 year rebuild and not the same old 2 year do-overs of the past, this will actually turn into an annual playoff team. Jimmy (and the fans) must be patient enough for rookies to mature into core players all on the same page.

    With some of the bad draft choices they have made in the past I don't think "sticking to a 5 year plan" would have helped. Would sticking with Trent Richardson/Weeden/JMZ/Gilbert/Mingo etc. etc. etc. for 5 years have made them better?

    Sticking with Pat Shurmur for 5 years? Hell no.

    Pettine? Maybe, not sure.

    Farmer? Fuck no.

    Mike Lombardi? Double Fuck NO.

    Ya follow?
