Heckert dismissed the pro personnel group Thursday, spokesman Neal Gulkis said. The department was headed by senior director Steve Sabo, who had been with the Browns since 1998. Keith O'Quinn, Jim Jauch and James Kirkland were also let go.

Sabo was responsible for scouting NFL teams and assisted with advance game scouting. Pro personnel director O'Quinn spent one year with the Browns after coming over from the Dallas Cowboys. Jauch, associate director of college and pro personnel, spent six seasons in Cleveland, and assistant director Kirkland joined the Browns in 2004.

Heckert, the Philadelphia Eagles' former GM, is expected to bring in his own people to oversee pro personnel and scouting.

Maybe he'll fire that guy next....of course Mike is probably having trouble getting through since Heckert probably changed all of the phone lines...
