Browns - Week 8

Well, today's loss tells us it is time to start preparing for the draft. I'd never want the Browns to tank to get a higher draft choice and want them to work for as many wins as they can get this year. Doesn't matter, a top five draft pick is not going to fix this team. We are several players short of being a top echelon NFL team and have advocated for years that the best route to go is to aggressively work to trade down in the draft and accumulate additional picks in the 2nd & 3rd rounds. Since returning to the NFL in 1999 the greatest deficiency of the new Browns has been in the area of player evaluation. Phil Savage was brought in as the new general manager after last season to improve the teams scouting, player evaluation and drafting. Time for him to earn his keep.

Step one: Cut the punter (Richardson) tomorrow morning.
