West has been on the bench a few weeks I think, might be playing for his job.
Definitely running well though, has been awhile since we've seen it.

So you want to sign Hoyer to starter money and anoint him the franchise QB for the next 5 years? Wow. 12 touchdowns, `13 interceptions and he's a franchise player.... Alrighty then. No, I want to sign Hoyer for a REASONABLE amount to help transition the Browns as Shaw (or whoever) develops. Bring in a quality backup (if you don't think Shaw is ready yet). Tell Hoyer it's his job. Period. I want to see what this guy can do with Mack anchoring this line for a FULL season and our RBs likely not hitting a wall after 10-12 games. Bring in some help to get pressure on the passer. Manziel should be an after thought at this point. Get what you can for Gordon. Have Gilbert return kicks and work as a nickel. Get OL depth where you can. We need a couple play makers at WR. Draft, FA, I don't care. It is clear that there are guys who will make an effort for Pettine. It is also clear that there are guys that won't. Hopefully Haslam let's Farmer do his job and Farmer sticks to his draft board. BPA is the topic of the day with two first rounders coming up. Depending on how it shakes out, maybe switch to a 4-3. We have to get better at some point, don't we? That assumes Hoyer will take backup money. He turned it down last off season. He believes he's a starter and will want starter money as a FA. It's likely some team will be desperate enough to give it to him. Hopefully that isn't us. You're assuming that Haslam FORCED Farmer to take Johnny. I've seen to evidence of this. Even if it was so, Farmer took Gilbert, a guy turning out to be an even bigger headcase. And West has shown attitude problems as well. It seems as if Farmer has a type that he like to draft and that type is egotistic nutjob. OK this has been going on all season even when the team was winning. What is your agenda? So we can all get on the same page! My agenda is a team that has it's head out of it's ass. A front office that drafts properly. And avoids taking head cases. My favorite Jimmy Johnson quote: "hit me in the head with a hammer if I draft a dumb player".

Joe(for him) has had a bad season. Not sure he'll make the probowl this season. If he does it's on rep not production this year....

You're assuming that Haslam FORCED Farmer to take Johnny. I've seen to evidence of this. Even if it was so, Farmer took Gilbert, a guy turning out to be an even bigger headcase. And West has shown attitude problems as well. It seems as if Farmer has a type that he like to draft and that type is egotistic nutjob. True, no one really knows if Haslam forced Farmer's hand. Gilbert HAS to have to some ability in someone's eyes to have been drafted that high. I'm not sure how you evaluate someone's work ethic since that is not my expertise. But, at this point, I'll say Gilbert > Johnny Jerkoff in terms of ability. Gilbert and West have the ability to be on the field and contribute IF they come to understand the demands of the PROFESSION. I think there is some middle ground with Hoyer in terms of $$$. Maybe more than backup $$$ but less than "true" starter $$$. It really depends on how long the organization believes they need him to bridge the gap to the next starter. Not having Hoyer puts us in a worse position IMO. Curious though, any FA QBs that can come here and get it done for 2-3 years in your opinion?
After 55 years, I'm walking away from this dumpster fire. Good luck to everyone who continues to hang on. You'll need it.

Sign Hoyer. Provide clarity and continuity at the QB position.
Cut or trade Gordon.
Manziel is third string entering season. He's told he's playing just stay on team and not get cut.
Stay where you are in the draft and take BPA.
Resign Skrine. That is pretty much my ideal scenario. If Manziel wants it enough, he'll work hard enough. Hoyer - I'm still intrigued but I just want a QB. If we build the team, we may entice one.
