Browns 2019 Thread

A solid 2 wins.

Yawn...

Just adding to the entertainment part of the ZNH. 

True...but I was hoping for some NEWER and better entertainment...sorta like the new upgrades the Browns have added.

At any rate the Browns off season moves have really been great with new coach, maybe the best TE in the NFL added, big O lineman, D backs and LBers AND the 10th pick in draft with 7 total picks.   What would have been worst?  Keeping Kitchens, not bringing in some of the players I listed, and keeping the GM who really didn't get it done.

I'll forget the 2019 season because of the poor coaching. The dude is gone, so I'll have an open mind to the 2020 Browns.

Trusting Kitchens to coach them last year was truly a huge mistake and disaster.  Dorsey proved to be a weak and ineffective GM as well.
Here is a bit of information on Andrew Berry:

Time will tell whether Andrew Berry can successfully navigate the twists and turns heâ€ll encounter as general manager of the Browns.
But this much is certain: He already knows his way around team headquarters in Berea.
The Browns brought Berry back Monday by hiring him as their new GM, a person familiar with the move confirmed to the USA TODAY Network. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been finalized.
Berry served as a vice president of player personnel with them from 2016-18 but can expect a better parking space during his second tour in Cleveland because he now has control of the 53-man roster.
Berry, 32, is now the youngest general manager in the NFL. He became a favorite of owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam when he worked for the Browns the first time, and they didnâ€t want him to leave last year when he accepted a promotion by becoming the Philadelphia Eagles†VP of football operations.

Chief strategy officer Paul DePodesta and Berry backed Kevin Stefanskiâ€s head coaching bid last year, when Freddie Kitchens secured the job instead.
So the Browns are hopeful an Ivy League trio of Harvard University graduates DePodesta and Berry and University of Pennsylvania graduate Stefanski, hired Jan. 12 as Kitchens†successor, will give them the alignment that has eluded a franchise plagued by power struggles and infighting since the Haslams purchased it in 2012.

The belief is DePodesta, Berry and Stefanski will be united by their strong committed to analytics.
The Browns interviewed two other candidates for the GM job — Minnesota Vikings assistant general manager George Paton and New England Patriots director of college scouting Monti Ossenfort.
Berry was widely considered the favorite heading into the search, but Paton emerged as the apparent front runner after a receiving a second interview Jan. 22. Paton worked with Stefanski for 13 seasons in Minnesota, yet the Browns fell short of inspiring Paton to leave the Vikings for a reunion. Paton withdrew from consideration Jan. 24, prompting all eyes to immediately turn toward Berry.

I couldn't find a Browns 2020 thread, so figured I'd just post here.

The team is unveiling new uniforms today

And in typical Browns fashion, they produce a video to show the new uniform then don't even show the damn changes...
