time to hire from the Butch Davis coaching tree
― brownie, Monday, 4 January 2016 00:29 (eight years ago) link
as someone pointed out on twitter, browns will be paying 3 head coaches next season. at least they are willing to throw some money at the problem. i thought pettine seemed okay but i guess he lost the players completely, if you can believe what you read.

that's how many head coaches the steelers have had in my lifetime
― mookieproof, Monday, 4 January 2016 00:53 (eight years ago) link
the browns are apparently interviewing doug marrone which would be the most hilarious hire ever after firing mike pettine
― J0rdan S., Monday, 4 January 2016 00:56 (eight years ago) link
i think the browns are rotten from the top down and it might not matter who they hire as coach but i think they really just need to roll the dice on a high ceiling target. no more pat shurmur/rob chudzinski/mike pettine types

the browns have apparently given their general counsel control of the football operation
― call all destroyer, Monday, 4 January 2016 03:32 (eight years ago) link
Sashi Brown will go from general counsel to executive vice president of football operations. The general manager will report to Brown, the coach to Haslam. The idea is for all to work together and collaborate on decisions, but Brown will have final authority over the 53-man roster and the draft, while the coach will decide how players are used on Sundays. That structure is similar to the one in which Farmer and Pettine worked.
the only thing more amazing than the idea of this management structure is the fact that they've already tried it.

The idea is for all to work together and reach decisions like drafting Justin Gilbert over Odell Beckham Jr, Derek Carr, and Aaron Donald

Manziel is just going down in flames. He's not exactly to Marinovich or Leaf's depth, but Johnny Football seems to be on his way to that place.

http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/14697600/cleveland-browns-moving-johnny-manziel-latest-incident-source-says
Johnny Manziel's time with the Cleveland Browns will come to an end in March, according to a league source.The Browns released a statement from new director of football operations Sashi Brown on Tuesday that expressed disappointment in Manziel but stopped short of saying the quarterback's run in Cleveland is over."We've been clear about expectations for our players on and off the field. Johnny's continual involvement in incidents that run counter to those expectations undermines the hard work of his teammates and the reputation of our organization," Brown said. "His status with our team will be addressed when permitted by league rules. We will have no further comment at this time."The reference to league rules points to the fact that the Browns do not have the salary cap space to release Manziel on Feb. 8, the day after the Super Bowl and the first day they can do so. The move will take place when the new NFL year starts March 9, according to the source. Releasing Manziel in February would count $4.6 million against the cap, and due to the cap's machinations, the Browns do not have that space -- and will not have it in February. The cap will increase in March, which will allow them to release Manziel then.

When your agent drops you, it pretty much means they think you are most likely a bust that won't make them anymore money.

The trade of Gilbert, who likely would have not made the team during final roster cuts, means the Browns have parted ways with both of their first-round picks from the 2014 draft, and they have none of their first-round picks on the roster from 2012 through 2014.Gone are QB Brandon Weeden (2012), RB Trent Richardson ('12), LB Barkevious Mingo ('13), QB Johnny Manziel ('14) and now Gilbert.
