Watching the Browns defense, some need to realize our fans are witnessing the results of a Browns draft philosophy that changed how the franchise evaluated football talent on draft day and in free agency. That change began 5 or 6 yrs ago and with the support of ownership, management and the coaching staff.

Experienced scouts were fired by the Browns NEW management before the draft even took place. The new direction of determining player talent would put more emphasis on STATS..stuff like Combine and Pro Day stats that are based on a stop watch and SPARQ scores..SPARQ stands for Speed, Power, Agility, Reaction and Quickness.

We look at the results of the Browns defense and wonder why the defense has issues...it can be traced back to the judgement of those who pushed for the changes that occurred 5/6 years ago. These are the players the NEW management chose over the last 5 or 6 years, based on their new methods of judging talent.

All of those named above (ownership, management and the coaching staff) OWN the results of their previous draft choices and free agent selection over the last 6 years and they OWN the results produced by the the players they drafted and selected. The Browns management chose the coaches, the players who start as well as the roster depth.

YOU ARE WHAT YOUR RECORD SAYS YOU ARE..!
