Does it matter? I mean the results are the results. Is there anywhere in the NFL where the MONEY BALL approach worked?

Depo returning to baseball is just the beginning of the Browns front office shakeup .

As I was the first to say. Your boogeyman is gone. If you notice that well informed group you posted even says they don't know what Depos job was. 😂

GM..did you listen to the entire video..?

It is ironic that it was Depo who was the first to jump off of his own roller-coaster.

I wonder how many feel that Depo suckered them and played them for fools?
...That is exactly what he did and many actually thought Depo could transform the Browns into a winning franchise by taking analytic shortcuts.

There are no shortcuts when it comes to judging football talent. Scouting requires someone to get out of the office and watch the individual perform on the field.

Earth to mac. Haslam owns the Browns. It's his roller coaster.

Thus far on this board you seem to be the only one who " feels that Depo suckered them and played them for fools".

Analytics give you statistics based on past events. It doesn't predict the future. Most people grasp that concept.


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

Well that's your opinion, not fact. And in answer to your question..... Not many feel that way. Not many at all. And the more attention they paid the less they think that.

...56 W...99 L....1T.....The Browns record since/including 2016 to today.


Depo took a better job.

He may be gone, but his systems are in place and will continue to be used by the people he trained. Analytics isn't going anywhere.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
