DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk K-9 Consensus Will Any of These Other Players Be with the Browns in 2016?

I wanted to add this on to cfrs' poll, but it seems that's not possible.

I tried to add only players who are significant because of role or draft status who I feel there is a more than 10% chance they could be gone next year.

Sorry about the format. I couldn't figure out how to create multiple questions with a single submission.

These are very hard determinations to try to make. A new regime will certainly want their own players and turnover will be high. We don't know if they'll be running a 4-3 or a 3-4. Far more questions and unanswered directions than there are answers.

To me, answering these questions are like throwing darts. You never know exactly where it will land.

I don't always throw darts, but when I do, its a triple 20.

I see more "No's" than "Yes's."

The offensive stars this year, were Benjamin, Barnidge, Duke Johnson.

I want EVERYBODY BACK. And get a RB in the first. I want 4, #1 runningbacks and 6 #1 Wideouts, and a competent fullback, and two all star tight ends. and All the QB's back, Manziel, McCown, Austin, and Shaw. And bring the coaches back too.

Guess the actual results depend upon how well the "analytic" guy does his job.

Surprised to see Randy Starks, he was probably our best interior lineman this season. From a snaps and consistency standpoint.

Agreed. He may get hurt by metrics in his diminishing 10 second split times, but Alec an the boys have other fish to fry right now.

Disagree. Dez Bryant was our best D-lineman this year and the past couple of years..........you know......in my opinion. LOL

I think a lot of these decisions will be predicated on whether or not we stay with the 34 or move to a 43 as our base scheme.

Players like Kruger and Mingo could be casualties while players like Starks and D. Bryant could stick around because they have experience, and arguably, performed better in the 43.

I think there is a decent chance Andrew Hawkins stays now that #hueknowit is our HC.

In some cases we have some leverage in other cases we don't. Just because the analytics guy wants some guys back and is willing to pay them, doesn't mean they will come back.

Plus, he's super cheap. Part of how we got the Bengals to not match his offer was by front-loading the contract. He's only a $1 million cap hit this upcoming season.

2014 27 $2,000,000 - $3,800,000 - $5,800,000 $6,800,000
2015 28 $4,000,000 - $1,000,000 - $5,000,000 $1,000,000
2016 29 $1,000,000 - - - $1,000,000 -
2017 30 $1,800,000 - - - $1,800,000 -

LOL Yeah, that drove me nuts.. But then, it's a short drive
