The Next Step in the Rebuild
-
I've been complaining about DePodesta since the beginning, so I agree 100% on letting him go.
I absolutely despise draft talk in October, but yeah, the offensive line needs serious help.
The other thing we don't talk about much, but is a serious problem, is tackling. It doesn't matter who the defensive coordinator is ( I think), but outside of Grant Delpit, there isn't another DB on the roster that is reliable with tackling. It's maddening.
Now if Derrick Henry is coming at you, or somebody large like that, I get it. But you need to make an honest effort at the tackle. It seems like they just don't want to do it.

Did you notice on King Henry's catch for a TD last night the defender assigned to stop him made sure he barely touched him. Smart guy lived to see another game.????

And I keep playing this scene in my head where the Browns leave Ohio completely again.... This asshole is never gonna put a SB team on the field
Doubtful, but I suppose anything is possible.

I think the strongest indicator that the team will remain in or around Cleveland for the foreseeable future is the deal they made with Huntington Bank for 20 years for the stadium naming rights.
Huntington’s corporate HQ is in Columbus, and most of their branches are in or around Ohio. I’m reasonably sure Huntington’s team of lawyers made sure there was language in the contract that if the team moves it better be somewhere there’s a lotta Huntington banks around.

Obviously this is dated judging by the number of games, but is still relevant. ?

The more I think of it, the more I think if I was Jimmy Haslam, I’m NOT firing Andrew Berry and Kevin Stefanski after this season. I’m letting them do the dirty work of dealing with Watson’s huge cap hit the next two seasons. I’m letting them take the lumps of trading away veterans and getting your brains kicked in with youngsters. What front office guy worth anything and head coach candidate would want to come in next season and deal with all this? Let Berry and Stefanski deal with it, then after two years, upgrade.

Absolutely nothing to lose with this strategy.

Here's an article below about the next draft - gee, what could go wrong?

What picks do Browns have in 2025 NFL Draft?
Apr 27, 2024 at 07:44 PMIt's never too early to think about next year's draft.
The Browns are poised to be back on the clock this time next year with a number of their own picks, including one in the first round. Cleveland hasn't made a first-round pick since 2021, as the previous three were sent to Houston in the team's trade for QB Deshaun Watson.
All told, the Browns, who made six picks in the 2024 NFL Draft, hold eight selections in 2025.
Here's the current breakdown:
- Own picks in Rounds 1-4 and 6
- 3rd-round pick from Buffalo (WR Amari Cooper trade)
- 6th-round pick from Minnesota (DE Za'Darius Smith trade)
- 6th-round pick from Chicago (DT Chris Williams trade)
-
So (1) first rounder, (1) second rounder, (2) third rounders, (1) fourth rounder and (3) sixth rounders.

Has there ever been a coach with TWO coach of Year Honors fired after his fifth season?
And then you factor where we came from 1999-2019.
Not to steal a line from a fool but “Browns is the Browns”

If Berry gets fired, you think they’d keep Stefanski? Think potentially GM candidates would be cool with inheriting a head coach?
