Which offense would you rather have? It’s close
They have been in prime draft position for decades and haven't been able to successfully build the team. I believe they only have one or two draft picks from before 2017 still on their roster. They finally stumbled into a QB last season, hard to say they did it the "right way", more like they might finally have gotten lucky

Like I said, it’s all about mayfield. Total stud. He makes it all work going forward.

The skins do this every year. Yet this is called doing it right???

The Browns’ approach the last few years under DePodesta and the Commanders’ approach aren’t even remotely similar. Although the Browns did overpay for OBJ, which was dumb.

I don’t know about them winning Super Bowls, but I do think tanking has its place and value.

The browns need a gameplan for all that fantasy football clout to work in their favor and not to mention Odell not having Mara french kiss Goodell when his antics make the news.

They are about to sign ET to a 3 year deal. I hate Jerry and Stephen.

That's their hope, it's only been one year and still too early to say how much he will develop, but they at least have some weapons around him. It's been a very, very, very long time that the Browns have even had any real hope going into year 2 with a QB. Like I said, it's not that they did it the right way, they just might have finally gotten lucky. It's still the Browns and bad things can happen at any moment....... ;)

Their GM John Dorsey wasn’t there for all of those QB failures though. He hit on the first QB he came across as the Browns GM and is building a nice team around him while he is still in his rookie contract (like Seattle did back in the day). Opposed to drafting a QB and great RB in the draft and continuing “the process” like idiots. Meanwhile we are signing our QB to a mega deal and has to resort to ignoring FAs to sign our core.

If you swing for the fence long enough eventually your bound to get a hit however many times you strike out.

But the Browns could still screw it up.

And that’s the thing. As bad as Browns have been they continue to fire those who failed bringing in new people until someone finally starts hitting.

That’s where the Cowboys fail by sticking with same GM and VP director of personnel hoping they’ll get it.

This board should be shut down.

Only to be reopened with the tweet announcing earl thomas signing somewhere.

It’s not really important what we think. It’s about what the Cowboys think and the decisions they make to support .

If they believe Dak is their guy . That’s all that matters. Once that decision is made then we must strategize the best means to surround him.

He looks to have the tools, but still doesn't mean he'll get there. There have been plenty others before him that had the physical ability but quite couldn't get there. He could also do something dumb off the field and sidetrack his career.

Yeah but the Browns have done NOTHING lol. Even with Dorsey. They've been screwing up drafts. They've had more picks than anyone. I will give him credit for trading for Odell rathe than wasting a 1st rounder on someone who would more than likely fail.

Yeah they are different. The browns did build through the draft with all those high picks the last few yrs. Some worked out, some didnt so i guesd they're spending big bucks now to fill those areas of need. They just need to hope these huge signings dont backfire and hold the team hostage in the future.

I understand . They haven’t yet but they certainly appear to be on their way. That’s worthy of recognition after all of their failures.

Tanking is the right way to build a stacked team and win the Super Bowl. The Browns have a ton of young studs and many of them are on rookie contracts. Having Mayfield, Ward, and Garrett on cost controlled rookie deals is unbelievable. Paying pennies for those high priced positions allowed them to spend big on OBJ, Landry, and Vernon. I think they will win 2 Super Bowls in the next 5 years if their key players avoid injuries. TRUST THE PROCESS

Too many attitudes. That team is destined to implode. They might make the playoffs next year, but then they implode the following.

Yeah, and this place will still be talking about how close the Cowboys are and the next "window".

And I strongly agree with that. I'm not that naive to think the cowboys are doing anything special in the next 5 years.

Especially with Dak being here for the long haul.

Cleveland. And it's not even close. I can't wait to see what the Browns offense can do with two pro bowl wrs and a young up and coming back with Hunt once his suspension is up with Freddie Kitchens coaching 'em up.
