You don’t rebuild through the draft by trading draft picks for bad QBs. You also don’t build a team by letting 26 year old players walk. You are kidding yourself if you think Jimmy The Hick will give Hue more than 2 years tops.
Freedom!!!
But WE have been kidding ourselves thinking that we have been close to being contenders. We have not. Though if Hue isn’t here in Year 3, I think there will be an uprising in Cleveland.
Plus, we haven’t traded anything to anyone yet. And in that, I’m with you. That said, Kaepernick might be who Hue wants. I honestly won’t try connecting those dots…unless we don’t plan on drafting a QB this year.
We’re still in a state of 1 step forward, 2 or 3 steps back though.
Land Hue Jackson. Cool. Cue the golf clap because that was our lone highlight of the year, and it’s all downhill from there.
Lost all our free agents, Josh Gordon is out in Vegas with Johnny, and even with being 385 billion under the cap we can’t and won’t sign any free agents worth a shit. The draft offers hope, but the track record of us being abysmal there has a reputation unto itself, and our inability to draft, develop, and the RESIGN our own players is a testament to how utterly futile we are at actually operating a franchise. We are bereft of talent across the board at nearly every position and 1 draft with 10 picks wont come anywhere near close to addressing or filling them. Our front office is comprised of completely unproven guys that are probably better at solving a Rubiks Cube in record time than they are assembling a draft board, and we’re on offensive and defensive systems number, shit I don’t know, 8, in the past 8 years. “Rebuilding” constitutes that at one point there was actually a previous structure in place. There wasn’t. So we can’t be “rebuilding”.
We have a vacant, trash and glass covered lot in the middle of a bad neighborhood, and a crew of men with bricks and copper piping that may or may not be able to even drive the front end loader. Not only is nothing being RE-built, but what is being built has about a 90% chance to look like a Frank Lloyd Wright building if he never went to school and just got drunk and stared at Picasso paintings all day long.
The only thing about the Cleveland Browns in the 2016 season that will in any way resemble a football team is that they will have helmets and matching uniforms, and at some point will attempt to assemble on the field in a coordinated effort. And honestly, even that is probably going to get blown to shit almost immediately when Brian Hartline comes out in the wrong color cleats and we get whistled for a delay of game penalty before the 1st snap while everyone talks about it.
Other than that, I’m with ya and can’t wait to see how this plays out because for once, there’s reason for legitimate optimism and I believe we are going in the right direction.
Real funny DPD –
Why would we want to move out team to toronto when we can clearly ruin our day much earlier in the morning?
Hue Jackson is a loser.
Good article on the matter.
