Cleveland Browns (Factory of Sadness)

[exhawg]

The silver lining is that this team isn't completely devoid of talent like the early 2000s and there is a competent coaching staff in place.

Wouldn't take a whole hell of a lot to actually field a competitive team that at least isn't embarrassing to watch.

The Eagles are proof that you can quickly recover from a bad QB contract, but you have to draft well, which Berry has never shown an aptitude for.

True. To his credit, the picks he has made have been at least sensible. Apart from maybe Jed Wills, you don't see disgusting reaches with incredibly questionable production or skill-sets that don't translate to the NFL.

However the front offices love of RAS numbers is a concern when the production and film doesn't back it up.

Bless your heart.

At this point I'm dispassionate. The bulk of my investment is more about being an analyst and making money off of the Browns gambling.

But there's still that faint glimmer of love for this team and town I got from my old man that I might never shake.

Jed didn't work out, but that is pretty common. Becton flamed out until the Eagles moved him to OG. Wirfs would have been the right pick, but he played RT for the first part of his career until they moved him. Maybe Wills would have done better if they moved Conklin over and let him play RT to start out. Jones seemed to switch sides better but he needs to lose a bunch of weight if he's going to be the answer at either OT spot.
