While I still would've liked to keep $ Mitchell, I'm now lamenting the loss of Tavierre Thomas. He was our special teams ace. I don't want JJ3 or Hill taking those hits (with versatility comes lots and lots of reps at different positions on the defensive side).
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.
You don't think with Hill's versatility that they're considering CB 'done' until the draft?
I think that we'll look for at least 1-2 CBs and another S before the draft. (obviously not top dollar guys)We have had so many injuries in the secondary last year that we wound up playing Sendejo, and a bunch of other guys who should never have seen the field on defense. Yes we'll still probably draft a couple in the secondary, but we need as much quality depth there as possible.

I am sure some of the drafted guys can fill that role...or some UDFA.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
The Browns are quietly going about their business.. Very effective, No splashes. Just very solid pick ups.
agreed. Business like and smart, while not overspending
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

We brought back Hodge. I'm assuming Elijah (?) Lee is back to play ST, too.

Agreed. I haven't been looking forward to a football season like I am now in forever. Like someone said, I hope we stay healthy because if we do this team could be very, very good.

The last time people were saying this, we were given the Freddie Kitchens season. I'm not letting myself get excited.

I think this year will be different. I think the 'team' arrived last year and for the next couple years it's only direction is up. Of course anything can happen to derail this, but I like our chances right now.
Last year we weren't sure if Freddie had broken baker, if the team would buy into the new coaching, if the coach would be worth a damn, if the new FO would be worth a damn, and how everything would gel... Then we had covid to deal with as well...
Since it looks as though the org is 100% on the same page, the team loves the coach and the plan, Baker took the next step, and hopefully covid will be behind us... This year couldn't be more different IMHO.

I think the Browns Defense played better than some want to admit last year, and got good production out of a variety of players. Likewise I think the loss of Terrence Mitchell and Larry Ogunjobi, among others whose status is sort of up in the air, Vernon, Kevin Johnson, others, will leave the Browns with a question mark of what the new faces can do, an unknown, we'll have to wait and see, wait and see if the new guys can match the previous players' success.
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.
All of them are OLine; so, an already deep group just got a lot deeper.
Drew Forbes is the first recognizable name to stick out on that list. Kendall Lamm, the Browns #7 ish who played like a semi- able starter, last year, is gone, hopefully they aren't counting on Drew Forbes who sat out last year for Covid caution, and didn't play very well anytime before that, to be the replacement. A definite net loss of skillset imo.

I want to see how Alex Taylor develops with more time with Callahan. He could be an adequate internal replacement at swing tackle.

When we build on last year and are a playoff team again in 2021 fans can finally be healed of their PTETD. Post Traumatic Expansion Team Disorder. It's a real thing, look it up in the DSM -6.

I Cnt' believe. Browns CB Kevin Johnson, (the one who made all those good plays late in the year last year)
signed a one year deal with the Tennessee Titans, March 18th.
So This, Troy Hill whomever, who we know nothing about,
is going to be counted on , to make the plays for a player, like, like Kevin Johnson, who was just coming on, and showing what he can do,
and the PLAYER WE KNOW CAN MAKE PLAYS, ... LEAVES THE TEAM!
HOW MANY TIMES, HOW MANY YEARS, do the Browns have to REPEAT, THE same pattern,
of not signing their own guys, I'm telling you,
I'm telling you, a team can't win the division in March! But they can lose it.
For 25 years, for 25 years, (so a proven pattern), guys who join your team, at least in the first year,
Guys who join your team never help you as much, as guys you let leave your team hurt your success.
Guys who are added to your team, never help your team win as much... as guys who leave your team hurt your ability to compete.
So The 2020 Browns had about 24 Db's and only two of them could suit up most of the year, and now Both Kevin Johnson and Terrence Mitchell were allowed to leave the team in free agency.
It's an old record, me complaining is an old record.
another old record is any time the Browns show any type of success, (including the year 1993) I start asking, HOW LONG CAN THE BROWNS KEEP THIS ROSTER TOGETHER??????
Well once again! Not even for one off season.
and, of course, the last 10 positive seasons, maybe 7 of the last 10 times the Browns showed signs of LIFE competitive, wise
They follow it up with a sup par year the next year.
Face it the Browns defense is in complete Rebuild mode, and
They'll have to overachieve if they even want to compete for playoff spot next year,
Since they can't keep their &%^& roster together!

Yea some people can't see the forest for the trees ... I mean we actually have 2 Shutdown CB's with pretty good depth, we do need to add another either through FA or the draft but Ward and Hill are dynamic
John 3:16 Jesus said "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."
I'm hoping Hill in the slot , not the #2 outside guy ..
Either way he is a dynamic CB, and if Greedy returns healthy wow just wow ...
