I believe they are going with Weeden for 2013, Going to diffinately pick up a QB, To strengthen that position up.

Trade Down to gain a 2nd rd and possible future pick in 2014, Pick BPA Defense, add a QB in the 4th rd and a Guard somewhere in the draft. I have not honed in on any particular players yet.

The Owners and Players are meeting in a court ordered mediated negotiations on Thursday April 14th, Hopefully they can get a CBA done so we all can enjoy football again. The owners and players have been acting like two sixth graders in a stare down. Cooler heads need to take place and get this deal done once and for all. Negotiations is just that, you negotiate, either side has to give something to get something.

Does anyone think that Fairly will drop to the Browns? And if so, should the Browns take him as EmDiggy believes?

I would trade down and get Jones or a DLineman

This is just ridiculous. He just hated Duke because he thought they were privileged, like many others

A Friend of mine's daughter waited on Lebron when he was back in town, Lebron requested a free cup of coffee, Her manager told her no, Lebron called her a Honky Bitch! Now if lebron was white and the waitress was African American, and Lebron called her N word, they would be a big upheavel over it. Double standards suck!

Thought about doing a poll here but decided to leave it as just a discussion. Who do you want the Cavs to pick in the first round? Both picks in the first if you want.

Me personally, I was on board with the Irving supporters until I got to witness Derrick Williams pick Duke apart last night! Wouldn't it be nice to see Williams' # 23 in a Cavs Uni next season? Add in Walker or Burks or Knight with that 2nd first rounder and then go best available with the 2nd round picks. This team could be back to being relevent next season!

Let me know what you think!

One mock has us drafting, 3 SF in a row. Derrick Williams. T, Jones and Richmond in the 2nd rd. They also projected CSU's Cole to go late first round.

Holmgren may decide this weekend, Seattle reporter making last ditch plea to Seattle's owner to quickly hire Holmgren.

Maybe the VP/GM has been picked but can't be anounced until after thier season. These moves like talking to Wies is his suggestion to Lerner and Bernie, There will be competition for Wies, So waiting may make the Browns lose the opportunity to hire Wies.

Nothing Matters until the New Football head is hired, Than it all starts from there. I wish I know what is going on with the hiring proccess, Did Lerner interview anyone yet?

Parcells job will probably be to setup and reorganize the Browns structure so it can function as a solid front office organization that succeeds on it's own when he leaves, That rebuilding the organization, The quality of the team will lag behind because, it takes longer to rebuild the actual team.

Holmgren turned down the Bills for thier coaching job, He wants a front office job. I think he waiting tosee his choices. I would like him here. Butif not, There are other choices, Lerner needs to define thier roles and give him the final say on team matters.

Only true Browns Fans can be critical about the Browns if they want because we are the ones who really care!All others needs to keep thier trapps shut! But we do welcome inteligent conversations from others!

Here is this week's Trick or treat survey. Give your thoughts:

1. It is obvious the Browns are having a nightmare season and ain't making the playoffs. Given that, what other team in the NFL would you like to see have a sweet dream season and win the Super Bowl?

New Orleans Saints, They are exciting and have not gone to a Superbowl yet.

2. The way the Browns played Sunday it looked like a Halloween horror movie. What do you think is the best horror movie ever made? Alien

3. What is your (or your kids) favorite Halloween Candy?

Kit Kat

4. What is the best/worst however you want to define it, Halloween prank (trick) you have ever played on someone? (or have had played on you) Can't remember

5. After the sin of Halloween must come repentence. Since this is All Saints/All Souls day, who is your favorite Saint (even if you don't believe in saints)
