Sashi Press Conference
-
Lets face it, every year somebody comes out of the draft looking like a Donkey. I mean....is it fair to say that despite this scene..it is the Browns FO who comes out looking like the Donkeys.
-
He is a piece of schit.
"Kenny is off to a slow start" ....lololololololol
I watched the presser. Sashi did a good job with the questions. He didn't throw Britt, or any player, coach, owner(s), or FO personnel under the bus. That's how a 'professional' handles it. He explained that they hoped for more out of the wr's and that they're working hard. Again, that's how a professional handles those questions. (like him or not)

That's how a professional con-man works. If anyone here thinks Louis or Higgins getting their feelings hurt will drastically affect the Browns playoff chances next year, stop watching you aren't getting it. These are professional athletes not college kids and if they can't handle criticism of poor play than why would you want them on your team.. If Sashi said "Kenny Britt hasn't produced" and Kenny can't handle it, maybe the NFL isn't for him. Saying, "sometimes playing hard isn't enough, you also need talent and in areas we lack talent" is honest and if honesty hurts your feelings go play for another team. Never thought the fan base would become such pu$$ies.

I'm a little late here, but I thought he did a good job. No excuses, talked about their vision and their process for building a team.
He wasn't all fluff and cliches like many of our past people.
-
He strikes me as the type that Jimmy would hire to run flying J too.

That's just not how a professional does it. You don't throw anyone under the bus on tv. And ya don't throw a subordinate under a bus in front of his peers in the workplace either.

one big issue I had with sashi's press conference was this quote: ""My hat's off to Wentz and Watson; a lot of teams also passed on Russell Wilson.''
Not identifying someone like wilson or dak prescott in the third round when you pick there is totally different than trading the wentz pick. It's different because NOBODY EXPECTS you to find the needle in a haystack pick....thats why gms dont get fired over missing out on those guys. Because everyone missed.
But everyone knew there were two guys in that draft at qb going very very high(goff and wentz, and at the time the pick was traded goff was in the lead for 1) and so if you are at 2 you know you have a clear and direct yes/no vote on Wentz. You know if you trade the pick thats what someone else is going to do. So in essence you are trading Wentz(or Goff if the order had flipped in terms of Los Angeles' preference before the draft). Thats the difference. That 2 slot was the pick where if you werent going to take him someone else was......
A statement like that is Sashi trying to deflect blame. Nobody is pissed at sashi for not taking Prescott. Nobody would be pissed at Sashi for not taking Wilson if he were GM then. We are pissed at Sashi for not taking a guy at 2 when there was tons of talk about him going at 2 and he essentially directly traded that player at 2 because everyone knew the eagles went up their to get a qb(which likely was going to be wentz because Goff was still the rams #1 choice at the time)
Meanwhile plans for a sashi statue in philly are already being sacastically discussed....
As great as Wentz has played, I'm even ok with passing on him because mistakes/busts can happen at the top of the draft and Wentz did have some definite question marks about him, level of competition in college being a major concern. Turns out, it looks like he's just really good and not only did the Browns miss out, but basically every D1 school in the country missed out.
To me...the bigger mistake is Watson. You had two first round picks. You drafted the consensus best player in the draft at #1 with Garrett...nicely done. My mother in law who doesn't watch football could've picked Garrett. Now..you're sitting at #12....the team still needs a QB, there's no question about it and you have Watson dropping right to you. A guy who started in the national championship game two years in a row and put up big numbers against a top college defense in Alabama both years, including a sweet game winning drive last year. When you need a QB, how in the hell you don't draft Watson is unforgivable. Trading down at that point is just being too cute and thinking you're smarter than you really are. Especially when you then draft a clone of Watson in the 2nd round who doesn't have the stats or credentials that the guy you could've picked at 12 has. What have we learned since....Kizer is inaccurate...well no shit..he was inaccurate at Notre Dame too. He turns the ball over too much....well again..no shit..he turned the ball over there too. Meanwhile, before the injury...Watson turned that team around and was leading that offense which was the talk on him coming out of Clemson...the dude is a leader and a culture changer. And if any organization needs a culture change...its our Cleveland Browns. That's the move that is unforgivable and should mean that changes have to happen.

sorry...don't agree. wentz=big ben. watson=rg3.

Here's the bottom line: We missed out on multiple qb's that appear to be franchise caliber, and the qb's we DID take don't appear to be worth squat. Do we really want the same idiots who failed us before to use even BETTER picks in 2018?

I think Sashi is great at acquiring picks and making deals, but DUDE, i've never seen such hardcore support for a guy thats FO has gone 1-23 (this bad) in my life before.
Most Browns fans (at least on the reddit page) LOVE him and think he's a football genius.
