Elliot Wolfe

And Haslam is the #1 problem. He's a control freak. We got worse under him nearly every year so far.

This is not a joke... Cleveland's front office now rivals Seattle and Indianapolis as the best in the NFL.
Didn't Indy just like fire their GM and HC?

They changed GMs a year ago when they replaced Grigson with Chris Ballard who they hired away from KC and Dorsey.

Here are the GB drafts during the time when Dorsey was there and Elliot Wolf looks to have been in a position of responsibility.

Speaking of Tour- does this mean Grigson is out with the hiring of Wolfe? What's the old saying, too many cooks spoil the broth? We still have DePodesta hanging around too.
Looking at those drafts (playing Jeopardy) I'll take Jordy Nelson and Clay Matthews for $1,000. Still honked we didn't draft Clay- he wanted to play here.
PS Looking it up on Wiki, 2009 was a Brownsian year of multiple trade downs. We dodged a bullet in Sanchez, Alex Mack or Clay in the first round? Clay would still be playing here. Also the year we totally blew the second round with Robiski, Massaquoi, and Veikune. If you want to get really ill, take a look at the guys we passed on that year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_NFL_Draft

Well...the entire personell staff may be aufed. Berry, Grigson. I mean.....aren't Wolfe and Dorsey here to do those jobs? Or are we still missing a guy to take over for the Sashi/Berry/Grigson triumvirate? Or, perhaps one of these guys...maybe Berry, will be kept on?
Like I said....there HAS been, in my mind, somewhat of an influx of decent talent brought in the last couple of years...except for the glaring exception at QB. So maybe Berry can stick it out.
I would keep Berry over Hue...whom I actually put way more responsibility on for this shiteshow than Sashi...overall. (again...except for QB)

Agreed, Larry. However, Jr must be tickled pink the 'home team' passed on him. At least they didn't completely blow that draft though. Although not a playmaker / game changer as is a dominating LB, at least Alex Mack proved to be a pretty good NFL player.
Jack Lambert always held a grudge about not being drafted by the 'home team'.
No sure if Roth. thought the same way, but he is another HOF player (Matthews is not, at least at this point), the 'home team' passed on.
However, this doesn't mean the Browns should draft a kid simply because he went to OSU, for example. The above examples are HOF and/or PB players.

Cleveland.com is reporting Eliot Wolfe has an interview now scheduled with Dorsey. The assumption is an interview is really not necessary since they worked together 2004 - 2012 and that an offer is in hand. It also mentions Ron Wolf was involved in the recommendation of the Browns hiring of Dorsey.
he also worked with McKenzie raiders new g.m for 7 years don't be surprised if he ends up there

I am guessing that the Raiders job was less desirable as I expect that Gruden has a death grip on every decision top to bottom. He likely saw more ability to achieve and advance in Cleveland. On top of it the cap room and draft capital have to be a dream for a person taking on this type of role. Wolfe will be our head dog within a few years in all likelihood.

I never could figure out bringing Grigson here in the first place- IIRC, he was terrible in Indy...
Haha ok.
What you no likee? We'll see how this turns out, but I have more confidence the way this Front office is shaping up than having a Harvard Bean Counter and a guy who thought giving us a first round pick for bust Richardson was a good idea running the draft.
-
FIFY. there's no way he should have both Hueless and Dorsey reporting directly to him. Every other organization I'm aware of has the HC reporting to the GM.
Yeah, that makes no sense. He's the owner, not a manager who keeps control of everyone. Plus it creates conflicts. Hue most likely got a part on firing Sashi as he had Haslam's ear.
But....their main problem has been hiring the wrong people....and then possibly meddling somewhat in their business. Here, we hope he has hired the right guy/guys....and will leave well enough alone. Though....keeping Hue on is evidence that we have not reached that point yet.
I think that they keep Hue because you can't expect anything after a 0-16, and if he pulls, let's say 6 wins, he keeps the job. If he doesn't, Dorsey brings a guy of his desire as a coach and doesn't lose credit for the 2018 season. Kind of a win-win situation, where the only ones who can lose... Are the fans?

Even that elicited a laugh from me. I didn’t like Sashi and definitely wanted him gone. However, Jimmy burns through coaches and GMs so a 4 year deal won’t stop him.

The Packers are a storied and model franchise that other teams can only dream to be.

They've been blowing up the draft for years. They just need to not blow it period.

This time its going to be different.
Even Ghoolie will be on board. Dorsey aint a coffee fetcher for Haslam. I hope that he takes Josh Allen, but he was involved in building the Packers back to prominence. Keeping Depo is actually a good idea because Dorsey spent money like a drunken sailor in a whore house when he had control of the check book in KC.
You do realize how full of contradictions that is, right? Dorsey, Allen and Depot with Ghoolie on board? Hue stays but Dorsey is no longer a coffee fetcher? Is Ghoolie aware that you are deviating from the true course of rectitude?

-
But Berry and Depo are still on board. Do we expect them to be aufed? Especially if they sign this guy?
Berry can fetch coffee and De podesta can fetch peanuts and Cracker Jack.

Exactly, french roast, sumatra, or kona? John, Elliot- salted or unsalted?
Types of Peanuts. Although peanuts come in many varieties, there are four basic market types: Runner, Virginia, Spanish and Valencia. Each of the peanut types is distinctive in size, flavor, and nutritional composition.
