Look at the organizational chart and figure it out.
Who makes the trades? Who handles the draft? How many times has Berry and KS and Haslam made it clear where and who has what responsibility?
Go and listen to the press conferences of Berry, Haslam, and Stefanski.
In addition take a few classes on football so you can understand what you are watching.
You are out of your mind if you believe the HC has nothing to do with the roster. I wouldn't and shouldn't buy any kind of talk from the talking heads trying to state something different to sell to the public and protect the calibration of the group. The person who should be taking tutorial classes it's yourself. Any fan on this site that doesn't believe that if Stefanski was 100% behind Mayfield and told Berry and Haslam that he was his guy that he'd still be on the Browns they're living in a dreamworld. Of course, he would, and you know it.
Now there will be guidelines and an organizational plan that the HC may have to abide by but well over 100 players report to camp and Stefanski and the group as a whole make roster decisions from that group or the need to adjust the roster within that group.
Is there an ultimate decision maker? Sure, there is, but that decision is only made after input from the coaches, scouts, assistance coaches, team needs, future needs, contract availability, cap and so on. To think Stefanski has zero say is just BS and you know it. There's no HC in the NFL that would take that job without having anything to say about anything to do with the roster - that's just crazy talk.
